Day 4: Prepared for Directions and Delays

Description: Like Abraham, we must be prepared to follow God's directions even when we don't know the destination. Additionally, we must be ready for delays, understanding that God's promises often require a period of waiting. This waiting period is not passive but active, filled with worship and trust in God's timing. Abraham's life teaches us that faith often requires stepping into the unknown and waiting patiently for God's promises to be fulfilled. By embracing this mindset, we can navigate life's uncertainties with confidence and hope. 

Hebrews 11:8-10 (ESV): "By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. By faith he went to live in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose designer and builder is God."

Reflection: Think about a time when you had to wait for God's promises. How did you spend that waiting period? What can you do today to actively worship and trust in God's timing?
