Baby Steps

I have this problem: I'm not too fond of the process. I just like to see the end results. So on this journey, I would really like to see where I'm going. But then that wouldn't require much faith, now would it. I must admit, though,sometimes I get so confused along the way. I really like to read a lot. One time I read that we must wait patiently for God to work it out, trusting in His perfect timing. Then I read how in order to be led we must be moving. Steps of faith. Get out of the boat. So how do we mesh the two together? I believe, at least for me, it requires baby steps of faith. As long as God lights the next step on the path, I don't need to see the whole path. I just simply take that step, trusting that if (or when) I mess up, His grace is more than enough. I don't have to be perfect, I don't have to figure it all out, I just have to be surrendered and willing to follow Him. This has truly been freeing. Thank You, Lord, for being so patient with me and lighting the next step. Help me to keep moving and growing on this journey.
