Red Light

The time has come. God has shown you where he wants you to go! So you are ready....set...RED LIGHT!! 😡 what?! But Lord, you have shown me where to go. Why oh why is there a red light? Just because we know where we are headed doesn't mean we get to race to the finish line. God has to prepare the finish line to receive us. That may mean we have to sit at a red light. I am SO EXCITED that God has shown us where to go. We have been waiting for this for a while now. I wanted it to happen like yesterday but of course God knows best. He is preparing the hearts waiting at the finish line.The  children of Israel had to spend 40 yrs. in the wilderness so God could prepare them. They learned while they were waiting. They didn't sit still at their red light. They worked while waiting. God was showing them that no matter what lay ahead at the finish line, he would take care of them. Sometimes we need a red light along the way so we will slow down and see the hand of God at work. Too often we rush with our busy day to day lives that we miss all the little big things that God is doing for us. So today I want to encourage you to enjoy your red light. Take a look around and thank God for what he is doing and what he is going to do. You will be amazed at what he is working on in your life. Then before you know it, your red light will turn GREEN. ☺️
