Acorn Build Up: Fog Navigation

Fog Navigation

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths.

I'm overwhelmed by the number of my friends that have stepped out in faith to begin new ministries. One thing we all have in common is that the first step, although it was a challenge, was only the beginning of the adventure.

When one steps out on faith it is expected that the going will be smooth. After all, we're following God's will for our life. Unfortunately, this isn't the case. Remember Peter stepping out of the boat? His first step or two went pretty smoothly, and then he noticed the wind and the water!

Stepping out in faith requires undivided attention on the One who calls us. When we trust the Lord completely, acknowledge Him in everything we do, then He will guide us through the fog.
