My mind was drawing a complete blank. I had spent three years on identity and I knew there was a next step, but the fact that I had no idea what that next step looked like was a really frustrating thing. I thought at this point I'd have a few things figured out, and I thought that it should come somewhat easy. It didn't.
I don't know how long I sat there in my hammock trying to figure out what to write down. I kept looking at the Bible references I had written, but that's all that was coming to me. I had come to the woods to sort through some ideas, and I was stuck on the second point. I decided to move on to the next one, the Destiny point, and so I started in the same place. I wrote down the key verse that I had been focusing on, then the summary of what I had come up with in my initial thoughts. There was just one problem, the stuff I was writing under the Destiny heading was stuff that I was thinking fit under the Passion heading. Now I was all confused.
What was I supposed to do now? I had finished with one part and I knew I needed to keep moving on this journey, but I had no idea what the next step looked like. And on top of all of that, what I thought the next step looked like was what I was now putting down for the step that followed it. Part of me felt like I was back at square one; the next steps either didn't make any sense, or looked completely different than I had expected...
Fight the lion, 1 Peter 5.1-11
TO GOD ALONE BE THE GLORY!
