Just For This Moment

We are studying some of the great Old Testament characters on Sunday evenings at church. We have so far looked at Noah, and are currently taking a look at the life of Abraham.

One thing we have seen is that when God assigns a task, He is very specific about what He wants done. Once the task is complete, God gives further instruction which is equally as specific. Some things are huge, and others are small. Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jacob were chosen for some pretty big things.

Often times, we don't know what specifically it is that God has for us until it is time to do it. We do know, generally, what God has for us to do as His church. But as for a specific individual task, we don't know until God tells us to do it.

In John 9:1-3, we see someone with a specific purpose. A purpose he is completely unaware of until just the right moment.

How awesome is it to think about? Our wise Father has thought that far in advance. He has planned that far ahead. When He created you and me, He had a specific plan for us. Might be something big, might be something small. It might even be simply to teach someone else something just for that moment in time.

God is AWESOME!
