“Be still and know that I am God.” — Ps 46:10

To follow the Lord is life itself. If he is calling you, he has already given you what’s necessary to respond. Fears and uncertainties are natural. What’s important is to stay focused on him.

“Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path” — Ps 119:105

God gives us enough light for the next step and no more. Be patient. Good discernment takes time. The Holy Spirit is at work within you preparing your heart to receive what He has for you. This may be a time for growth and healing. Responding to God’s call always involves growing in freedom to be able to say “yes”.
