If you are where the Lord wants, Proceed!

Proverbs 26:2   “As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying,so the curse causeless shall not come.”

            Fear of what is next always worries people . We’re always afraid of the empty threats of bullies , bosses , or spouses and children. We are often worried about what may happen to us, but in most cases these ungrounded fears never materialize and we have been both worried and ineffective in our daily lives.

            Joseph’s brothers threatened him, Goliath threatened David , Nebuchadnezzar threatened Shadrack, Meshack, and Abendeo as well as Daniel , Pharoah threatened Moses, but none of them had fears that came to be . But the threatened ones did not fear because they knew that their steps were prepared. They were where the Lord let them be and were not afraid of causeless threats .

Lord , we love you today and trust where you have put us. We ask Your favor to guide us in what we say and do with no fear. Since we all are aware Who You are, we can know You have something for us to do. Help us to recognize the opportunities you present, the talents and gifts we have, and the nerve to respond per Your will. For your service we live.  Amen.
