It's been such an amazing few weeks with our current series "Change Your World in 52 Days" as we walk through the book of Nehemiah. There are just so many great stories of strength, courage and trusting God in this book, but recently a line really struck me. Pastor Craig Groeschel has been teaching us through this series and last week he said "Give it to God. Get back to work".
I realized so many times we as followers of Christ talk about laying our burdens and worries at the foot of the cross and giving it to Jesus, but we miss the part of "getting back to work". I find myself asking God to take my thing I am dealing with and then I get so fixated with seeing God work in that situation and forget to go forward in the next areas of opportunity he has for me to share the Gospel and live the life he's called me to live.
We've got to "get back to work" so we don't miss those next moments of revelation, restoration and revival in our lives and those around us.
So, give it to God...Get back to work!
Blessings,
Patrick
