His Plans are Always Moving Forward

Posted in personal

29-small

We have some dear friends in town right now. And yesterday morning, we sat on the beach. And Emily and I were talking about the sovereignty of God. She had recently been to a church in California where the pastor was also talking about the plans of God. And how they keep moving forward. Always.

And I got to thinking about the wait. And the in-between days. Months. Years, even, before His promise catches up with His miracle. And how they feel so… frozen. Stuck. Paused in that awkward moment where you face is stuck in the most unflattering position.

But in those moments where it feels like the waiting is worthless? And He’s not doing a thing to advance the timeline of your miracle? That’s when He’s busy writing your story.

Today marks the beginning of the third trimester for this sweet babe. And so far, his divinely-written story has been my very favorite. #miraclebabyjohnson #28weeks

The question of how to recognize God’s voice speaking in your life is a tricky one to answer.

This is the very best way I can describe it for me. What does it feel like for you?

When sharing our story, I’m incredibly cautious to not promise something to women that God has not specifically promised them Himself. (After losing my best friend to cancer, I’m very well aware of the stories in which God chooses not to perform the miracle inside of your body.)

So I was really unsure of what part of our story to lean into last weekend as I prepared to speak at @hannah.g.barnett. When I asked, I felt God keep saying “I’ll tell you when you get there.” Okay, God. That’s kind of a lot.

And then I met a woman inside the museum of Elvis Presley’s birthplace. And God reminded me again that, whether or not He chooses to perform that miracle inside of your body, just believing He CAN do the impossible is enough.
