Daily Thought

Ecclesiastes 11:4
‘He who watches the wind, waiting for all conditions to be perfect, will not sow seed, and he who looks at the clouds will not reap a harvest.’

Waiting for ‘perfect conditions’ is a futile exercise.
Perfect conditions may never come and if they do we could miss them.
Let us use the opportunities we have before us to step out in faith.
Don’t focus on the obstacles but be filled with faith and confidence in God.

Let's Pray...
Lord, I recognise that now is the time to plant the seed, take the action and follow Your leading. You can make things happen even when conditions don’t appear to be ideal. Help me to step forward and to trust You.

Amen.
