Enter into what God is doing

Tuesday February 19th, Romans 4: 1-3 So how do we fit what we know of Abraham, our first father in the faith, into this new way of looking at things? If Abraham, by what he did for God, got God to approve him, he could certainly have taken credit for it. But the story we're given is a God-story, not an Abraham-story. What we read in Scripture is, "Abraham entered into what God was doing for him, and that was the turning point. He trusted God to set him right instead of trying to be right on his own." What a beautiful description of the God life, Abraham entered into what God was doing for him. God is the director, Abraham is the actor. Have you entered into what God is already doing for you? God, who is out front, scouting the land, checking the contacts, God who had created everything and knows just how you will fit best into the overall plan, have you entered into this God-director in your life? Abraham was not special because of Abraham. Abraham was special because he gave up trying to be Abraham’s Abraham and started being God’s Abraham. Instead of limping along on 2 cylinders, the turbo kicked in and Life came alive. What is your life like? Is it two or turbo? The best way to get into turbo is to get down on your knees.
