Stuck in the Middle

Nearly two years ago Ashley and I were given a great opportunity (for what? doesn't matter). Anyway, we prayed about it and felt like this opportunity was a God thing (not all opportunities are), so we took it. Now we are in the midst of it. Things haven't worked in the way and time I wanted. And I'm freaking out!

Why? Why I'm I so worried? Why, if God opened a door and I walked through it, am I worrying about how things are going to turn out? I walked through a door, into a room of God-given opportunity and now that I'm here and things aren't as I expected I've jumped into the closet of DOUBT. Why have a I done this? Why do we all do this? If God puts us in a situation (and we are certain it was Him who did so), why do we worry that it will not work out?

Following a "God thing" is never easy. It's never exactly the way we expected. But, it's always to our benefit. So if you're stuck in the middle of a God thing right now and things seem a little scary, don't freak. If He's put you there, or allowed you to be there, He's there too.

What God starts, He finishes!!
