Saturday Step of Faith - 1

This is the verse I am believing for this week's "Steps of Faith":

For still the vision awaits its time;
it hastens to the end--it will not lie,
If it seems slow, wait for it;
It will surely come, it will not delay.
- Habakkuk 2:3 (RSV)



This passage from Habakkuk is a part of what God spoke to the prophet.

Though there was much evil in the world that day, things happening that His people could not understand, He was moving according to His perfect timetable.

He will not delay, He will come, He will move at the appointed time.

I have questions in my heart about the pace my life is moving at. I find it slow, and I am wondering if I am not missing out on something.

I want my life to count for Him.

My nation is at the crossroads of destiny. I know I am part of the movement that will usher in a revival to our country...

I am looking forward to a deeper participation in the identity and destiny ministry I have been involved in these past eight years...

The ministries I am a part of in my home church back in Bacolod City are waiting for me to come back...

I know my family and grandson back there are waiting for me, too...



Many other concerns rising up in my heart.


So what am I doing here, away from where the action is? This is my question to the Lord.

Although I have no doubt, I know that for now, I am right where God wants me to be... my heart wants to be in two places at the same time.

When I read these words this morning, something was quickened in my spirit. God touched my heart.

This other verse from the book of Habakkuk lines up with the promise quoted above:

But the LORD is in His holy temple
let all the earth keep silence before Him.

- Habakkuk 2:20

So now, let me keep silent, and wait... and believe.

Thank you dear blog friends for waiting, and believing, with me!

You are all an encouragement to my heart, and my faith journey.
