When Disappointment HurtsMfano

Day 5 - Do His Will You might be confused about your current storm and wondering what’s next. If you’ve been removed from a project you are passionate about, or passed by for a promotion for your dream job, or forced to take some time to rest from a physical ailment in the midst of a flourishing season, confusion about your call can seep into the very depths of your soul. In times where His will is uncertain, it’s important you do everything you know is His will. It’s to love Him and your neighbors. It’s to share the Gospel with people. It’s to support those in need and encourage those in distress. It’s to love your spouse, children, and family well. It’s to do your creative best with what is in your hand at this moment. Do what you know He has for you now; as my long-time pastor John Lindell has said, “ Do all of the revealed will of God for your life and God will lead you in discovering the unrevealed will of God for your life.” God shows us in Hebrews 10:36 that if we follow this journey, then we will receive all that He has promised! I know it’s easy to become lethargic and to sit in our pj’s watching This Is Us until the storm passes. As wonderful as that show is (and it is!) or how easy it is to passively wait, there’s no value in that place. Faith is produced in the suffering and in the resistance. Growth takes place when you have to get honest with yourself and go to God’s promises. You are purified in the fire, not diminished. Discover how you can grow in this season and what God has for you in this secret place. If you can do that, you’ll grow vibrantly, make it through with a fiercer faith, and flourish in the calling He has on your life. * If you would like further inspiration, visit [ www.brittanyrust.com ](www.brittanyrust.com) to read weekly devotionals that serve as encouragement for the world-weary believer.
