How do you know which direction to take when you stand at a major crossroads in your life? Whether you are graduating from school, changing careers, navigating a major health concern, or entering a new season of retirement, eventually every single follower of Jesus must learn how to discern God leading.
In this encouraging message, we explore the story of the early church in Acts chapter one, where the Apostle Peter faced a significant intersection of his own. Instead of forging a trail on his own or freezing in a paralysis of analysis, Peter utilized four key trail markers to discover the will of God. Through a pattern of constant prayer, searching the living words of scripture, thoughtfully considering the options, and ultimately stepping forward to make a decision in faith, we see how true discernment is less about finding a perfect door and more about learning how to walk with God. No matter what fork in the road lies ahead of you today, you can release your anxiety and trust that the God of redemption stands ready to guide your path. How can you intentionally invite God into your current season of decision making this week?
