Sometimes in our lives we feel stuck. Like we cant turn to our left or right. I have been in that place, I know God is a good, I know he loves me and wants me to succeed in life. God wants the best for me in my life, ministry in my marriage, but i felt like I was stuck in mud. I prayed, I would talk to someone for encouragement, but no change. For months it left like I did not belong, like God was not hearing me. I saw the big picture, I knew what God wanted me to do, but I could not get there. Finally I STOPPED what I was doing and told GOD “look, I know this place where I am at it not where I am supposed to be, but I am going to serve you with all my heart not matter where I am at. If playing for the drums for the church is all you want me to do right now, ill do with with all my heart”. When I made that decision I still felt stuck, but as months went on I started to grow a great passion for worship. I began to grow closer to GOD through worship. I began to pour myself out, my thoughts, my plans, my desires. God began to show me things about myself that needed to be addressed. God took me to 2 Samuel 15:22, it is better to obey than to sacrifice. GOD began to show me in my case in order to get out of the mud I had to obey, even if I don't agree with his plans and I needed to worship. I learned sometimes were are stuck in mud because we missed what God is trying to show us. Sometimes we think we know more than GOD. God knows where we are, where were are going and where we are ending up. Our thoughts are not like his. GOD knows what is right for us. GOD wants to start taking people out of the mud. IF you feel stuck, What is God trying to show you? Whats holding us back from Gods plans? Maybe he just wants us to let go of OUR plans and trust in his.
