Why and how does God move us? Many people will spend years
working in the same building, living in the same house, or attending the same
church. Then comes a time when we move on, and painfully leave these behind.
The pain is the finality of that season, as we leave the ghosts of laughter in
the walls, and take with us the memories of a life lived. Time, allows us to
move onto new chapters as the pain leaves.
God, in His wisdom, does the same things for us. He will
plant us where He needs us for a time. Just when we are nice and comfy, perhaps
too comfy, He moves us. He does this because He always has something better for
us. Jeremiah 29:11. He removes the pain of change or separation, allowing us to
keep fond memories of how we got there. He’ll provide a better job, a place to
worship, and even leave a time of enjoyment, or as we know it, retirement, for
us to have. We may lament about the timing, but I am reminded that His timing
is always perfect. God moves you, because He needs you. Perhaps He is
moving something in you today, in your time of need. If so, receive it
gracefully. Hebrews 4:16.
