Laying out my fleece

I can relate to Gideon.

"The angel of God appeared to him and said, 'God is with you, O mighty warrior!' He replied, 'With me, my master? If God is with us, why has all this happened to us? Where are all the miracle-wonders our parents and grandparents told us about, telling us, 'Didn't God deliver us from Egypt?' The fact is, God has nothing to do with us—he has turned us over to Midian.' But God faced him directly: 'Go in this strength that is yours. Save Israel from Midian. Haven't I just sent you?' Gideon said to him, 'Me, my master? How and with what could I ever save Israel? Look at me. My clan's the weakest in Manasseh and I'm the runt of the litter.' God said to him, "I'll be with you. Believe me."

I will go in the strength that God has given me.

God did send me here.

God will be with me. I believe with all my heart.

  1. God is with you and you were called here for a purpose. Faith is a church discerning its purpose. All of our paths are crooked, but there is only One who can make them straight.
