Day 8: Lord, Where Are You Leading Me?: Part 2

Day 8: Lord, Where Are You Leading Me?: Part 2

For today, tomorrow, the next week, the next month, the next quarter (three months), the next six months, year, three years, five years, ten years, twenty years, twenty-five years, etc., it is important to ask this question:

God, where are you leading me?

It’s a question, we should ask every minute and be mindful to do so. It should be done with great intentionality.

Why? When we live in the middle of god’s will, and stop going against it, then, we are going with the flow and are not working against it. We will then receive blessing from God and will bring Him glory. We will experience a radical shift in our lives and in every way: spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and so on.

Before we begin, please take a quick look at Day 6 and see where we left off at that time.
