What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do

Описание: What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do
Feeling stuck? When you're overwhelmed by choices or simply don't know your next step, there's a simple, profound answer: Just Do The Next Thing. [00:02]

In this video, I share the principle that has guided me through times of confusion and uncertainty, inspired by a timeless poem and my own journey in ministry.

The Guiding Principle: Do The Next Thing
I read the powerful poem popularized by Elizabeth Elliot [00:19], which challenges us to focus on the immediate task God has placed before us and trust Him with the outcome: "Leave all results, do the next thing." [02:14]

When you don't know where to go, remember these core steps:

Know God: You can't figure out where God is working unless you know who He is. Read the book He specifically wrote for us to follow [02:36].

Pray and Move: Just like the old hymn says, it's a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer [02:22]. Take the next step and keep moving forward [03:54].

Start Reading: For those who don't feel a clear calling into vocational ministry, develop the habit to read every day. I share a few recommended devotionals: Imitation of Christ, Experiencing God (Henry Blackabe), and a devotion by Charles Spurgeon [05:40].

Serve His Church: The Christian life is about spreading the gospel [06:32]. When you start serving people and serving in your local congregation, you will start to see God moving [07:29].

The safest place you can be is right in the middle of God's will, which is encapsulated in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20) [07:47].
