I was done. It felt like the wheels had fallen off. I was hurt, frustrated, saddened, and damaged with no clear course of action. As I was driving, I began to cry out to God. I wasn’t complaining, I needed His counsel, help, and direction.
I have never heard the audible voice of God, except maybe once, and the jury is still out on that one. However, three words burst in my chest with clarity, piercing the fog of war that had settled over my mind and heart.
Stay. The. Course.
It was exactly what I needed at exactly the time I needed it. “Stay the course.” You would think I just got a knock at the door from HGTV waiting to tell me I won the Dream House on Cape Cod. I went from mourning to elation in a nano-second.
Have you asked God to speak? Have you cried out for clarity? If you are not hearing anything, don’t fret, simply go back to the last thing you know He spoke to your heart. Stay the course, continue, and rest in the last clear thing He told you. - Pastor Jimmy
