Billy Sticker argues that instead of asking God to bless your plans, identify where God is already working in deserts, streets, and broken communities, then ask how you can join in rather than starting something new from scratch.
We're not called to stay in safe spaces. We're called to go to the desert. We're called to go to the marketplace, to the streets, to the broken places, wherever God is already at work. And that's what you need to understand, is God is already at work. He's not asking you to lay the foundation, put up the walls, run the plumbing. He's just asking you to just go and do whatever part, whatever service you can provide. And that's what I love about thinking, God, show me what you're already doing, and then how can I just step in and be a part of that?
