When God makes you uncomfortable in your transition. ...

We are so use to God providing our every need. We get comfortable in knowing that God will make a way. We get use to the tradition of fixing problems the same way we fixed them before. Parent the way our parents parented, pray the way our grandmamma prayed, live according to the way it was and not the way it is. But What do you do when those things stop working? What do you do when God begins to require something from you? God has fed you the same way for years and then……. He changes up on you. You are no longer receiving the meals like before and when you try to do what you have always done, there is no food. You start to worry, you start to doubt, and you lose faith and question God. The same God that has always provided. But see you are so blinded by your comfort you are no longer seeing God work. Your comfort brings content, content brings stillness, stillness turns to lazy and lazy makes you lost. Now you’re starving because you think He has left you. But in reality, in midst of your comfort, while lying in your bed of content and being fed at your table of stillness, you became stuck. God has to make you uncomfortable to get you back on course to your promise. So no God did not leave you, He just moved the location where you were use to being fed so you can get back on the path to your promise. Don’t allow yourself to be stuck in the crowd trying to fit in and now you are stuck in your own comfort and stop moving towards what is yours. God will make you uncomfortable and if you don’t recognize it in time, you will be stuck and you will starve. Recognize the transition.
