Plodding:

     Oh, Soldier.

     Remember that one foot must go in front of the other. 

     There is no other experience for the Soldier of The Cross.  God's Word teaches us that things are done in the moment and by prayer.  We are to stand on His Word and we are to move forward one step at a time.

     You know He is leading you, but you are certain the direction will lead you through a snarl, at the least.  That may be.  Nevertheless, the issue is, can He be trusted?

     I have read hundreds of missionary biographies and have interviewed dozens and dozens of old missionaries.  I have yet to find one person who will tell me that he wishes he had chosen something other than God's leading.

     Soldier, please!  Listen to the Indwelling Holy Spirit.  Learn to follow.  This is not about feeling, as feeling will often contradict the leading of the Spirit.  God's Word will ring in the thought life as a result of prayer, and the Soldier will recognize the voice of His Commander.

     Move in prayer. Tell Him you will obey.
     Aloud.
     Today.
