Do you ever feel like life is a waiting room? You wait to grow up. You wait to drive.

You wait to get your first car, first job and even to have a purpose. God clearly states in
His word that once we are redeemed, we have a purpose in existing. Isaiah 43:1 says,
"But now, this is what the LORD says--he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed
you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you
are mine."

While we are to wait on His plan and follow his direction, we are not to be stagnant in following Him in the mean time. In Genesis, God gives Abraham the promise of an incredible future, but when the waiting gets difficult, Abraham follows the culture around

him and takes matters into his own hands (Genesis 16:1-6). This one act, while it may have seemed small, resulted in centuries of death. Don't ever sell your actions short. Our actions can do so much for Christ. How can your actions promoting Christ?
