Our Eyes Are On You

“We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon you. (2 Chronicles 20:12) 

"Living a life of faith often requires us to leave things alone. If we have completely entrusted something to God, we must keep our hands off it. He can guard it better than we can, and He does not need our help. Be still before the Lord if we have completely entrusted something to God, we must keep our hands off it. He can guard it better than we can, and He does not need our help. “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways” (Ps. 37:7)... God knows our circumstances better than we do. And He will work at the perfect moment, if we will completely trust Him to work in His own way and in His own time. Often there is nothing as godly as inactivity on our part, or nothing as harmful as restless working, for God has promised to work His sovereign will. It is such a comfort to drop the entanglements and perplexities of life into God’s hands and leave them there.” -Excerpt From: Streams in the Desert

I'm feeling so fired up after the Global Leadership Summit today! There was so much truth, encouragement, and wise counsel. And we still have one whole day to go!  I have so many ideas, renewed passions, clearer visions and I can't wait to see what God does with it all. But this devotion is a perfect reminder that we can completely entrust all things unto God. Being still before the Lord, praying and waiting patiently and expectantly for Him to move within His will and ways. Even if we aren't sure exactly what's next, if our eyes are on Him, He will lead the way!
