The Stone Rolled Away

I heard a story the other day.   A friend of mine was told that she needed to "stop" the job that she was doing.  Now this "job" had been her life for many years and it came as a shock to her.  But when she finally "laid it down", it seemed as I listened, that the "stone rolled away" allowing the blessings to flow afresh into her life.


Sometimes our short sightedness,  our "I've always done it this way" can stop up what the Lord is wanting to bring into our lives.  We just can't see it or imagine it.   But God in His infinite grace and mercy will continue to try to get our attention and when we finally see it and lay it down ~ HE begins to move.


Have you asked the Lord lately if He is trying to get your attention?  Do you feel stuck and that your prayers are hitting a solid ceiling?  Perhaps God is trying to direct you a different way.  Open yourself up to Him and see what He has to say.  Don't be afraid.  He will not let you fall.  He will not forsake you.  He will not give you a stone when you ask for bread.


Friend,  I bet that there is a corner up ahead that you simply can't see from where you are standing.  We serving a loving heavenly Father.  You do not need to be afraid.  Stop, look and listen to what He might have for you today!


Blessings!
