He eventually made the way clear
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful. (Hebrews 10:23 NIV)
Are you faced with options, choices, and decisions, but you don’t have any idea which direction to take? Perhaps you don’t even know exactly what it is you want. You know you want to move in the direction the Lord is leading, but you don’t exactly know what that direction is. You’re floundering, not knowing where to go, what to do, or how to do it.
You can’t see far enough ahead to know what the outcome of each choice will be and where each choice will lead. You feel you don’t have enough information yet to make decisions. You’re under pressure to decide something soon; you can see advantages and disadvantages to each option, but you don’t have a clear indication of which one would be better, and the Lord hasn’t yet clearly revealed it to you.
I’m sure you can think of times in your life when you had to make a certain decision but you couldn’t seem to get any answers; but when you waited in prayer and with faith, trusting the Lord to come through for you, He eventually made the way clear—and you were so glad you waited and trusted.
Waiting is an important element of the faith life. It’s not easy, but it’s part of the process that God uses to instruct us, teach us patience, build our character, and draw us closer to Him. —Maria Fontaine [1]
Most conversation between God and humans is to help us understand things. God relates to his people in a way to help them grow and develop. —Dallas Willard
