Into the Fire

So where do we go from here? 

Have you ever asked yourself that question? If you're a Christian, you've found yourself waiting on the Lord. The only time waiting is even a little bit tolerable is when you really don't want to contemplate doing what you know you must. Anyone can be impatient. Christians are not immune even when we're instructed to be. 

Is there something new on the horizon, but you're not sure what it is? Are you restless? Are you waiting for an instruction, a specific direction? 

Where do you go from here? 

As an author, I tend to know where to go with each novel I've written. That's not to say I don't come up blank once in a while and must take a break. When I return, the story takes its usual pace and hastens to put words on "the page." Up to this point, it's worked every time. 

Right now, it's a different story to use a well-worn but appropriate cliché. So, where do I go from here? Guess I'll find out. Hope it's sooner, not later. Waiting is not my favorite thing. 

Father, I know one thing: I can count on you. Thank you for that. Please bless this current story, help me to finish it well. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
