What now?


Broken pieces?  Jars of clay?  Earthen vessels?  Poured out?  Used up?

I finally realized that the question we should ask  isn't "Why, Lord?"  but rather, "What now, Lord?"

Asking “What now, Lord?” instead of “Why, Lord?” is a tough one.

* It's hard to ask the right question when you are feeling disappointed.
* It's hard to ask the right question when you feel like your heart has been broken.
*It's hard to ask “What now?” when you feel like your dreams have been shattered.

But your life will begin to change when you start asking God, "Lord, what should I do now?"

Oh sure, you will still feel angry or disheartened by disappointments, but you will discover that God desires to show you, "what now!" 

So here's a question...if you really want to know, "what now?"   Why wait? 

Deuteronomy 31:6
"Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble... For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you. He will not fail you or forsake you."
See you on Sunday, and I'm just sayin'.






"It's Gonna' Be Worth It"
Acts 2:25
