Discovering God’s Will for Your Life
Have you ever felt a deep-seated desire to pursue a dream, but wondered if it aligns with God’s plan for your life? You’re not alone. Stephanie, a aspiring author, faced a similar dilemma.
A Dream Deferred
Stephanie’s passion for writing was put on hold due to family obligations. However, at the age of forty, the urge to write resurfaced. She questioned whether this renewed desire was from God.
Seeking Guidance
As Stephanie prayed, her doubts were palpable. That was until she heard Charles Stanley’s message on prayer and fasting. Inspired, she decided to abstain from eating while her family was away, using the time to focus on God. In this period of quiet reflection, God’s Word spoke directly to her heart, confirming her dream.
Embracing God’s Will
Stephanie’s experience serves as a powerful reminder that God can use our talents for His glory. By surrendering her dream to God, she discovered His will for her life. Today, she uses her writing abilities to bring glory to Jesus.
Your Turn
Perhaps you’re struggling to discern God’s will for your life. Remember, God desires to guide you. Release your dreams to Him, and He will reveal His plans for you. As 1 Thessalonians 5:18 reminds us, “give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
