God has been reminding me that in the midst of waiting he is still moving in my life and he is in control. When I was seeking out possible connections on Wednesday, the Association director from the Conroe Baptist Association called me and said he is sending my resume to a guy he knows in the San Antonio area. The position that he sent my resume for I am not sure of. He just said it was Youth/ Family Ministry related position. This instance just reminded me that God is still in control and moving in our lives even when we are waiting on his direction. Sometimes when we do not know where God wants us we just have to trust God knows what is best for us.
The story of Joseph and his brothers reminds me of how God is in control in all of our circumstances in life. When Joseph was thrown down in the pit by his brothers, God was still in control. When the cupbearer told Pharaoh that Joseph could interpret dreams and he told Pharaoh back his dream, God was still in control. In Genesis 50:19-20, Joseph acknowledges God is still in control in all circumstances in his life. He says, "Don't be afraid? Am I in the place of God. You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good, to accomplish what is being done, the saving of many lives. So then, don't be afraid. I will provide for your children."
In whatever circumstance we are in, we have to remind ourselves that God is in control and still working. God has a plan even if we do not see it at the time.
