I heard a preacher once say, "You don't need to know the destination of God's will, as long as you know the direction he wants you to go".
I've thought of that often since then. How often have you prayed "Lord show me Your Will" ? I have many times. However, now that I look back, I am beginning to see where in some cases, the Lord didn't want me to know his Will at first. He showed me which path to take, which direction to go, and asked me to simply be obedient so HE could show me the end result. Sometimes it's hard to discern God's Will. However, if you keep walking in the right direction, He will guide you.
Take it as a test, and learn to be faithful even in uncertainty.
"In the way of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death." Proverbs 12:28
"For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord,
And He ponders all his paths." Proverbs 5:21
Beautiful point! :)
