Red light means STOP.
Green light means…?
What DOES the green light mean?
Most would say it means GO.
I say MOST because not everyone acts like they believe this to be true.
Have you ever been driving and ended up behind a car that, for whatever reason, was STOPPED at a green light? Seriously?!? Why the heck isn’t this car moving? I got places to go, people to see, and things to do. HONK! CUSS! HONK! CUSS! HAND GESTURE! HONK!
You know the green light means GO, but they obviously do not. And because you know it means GO, you feel as if you’re missing an opportunity, you’re stuck when you should be moving. GO!
But what if the situation gets flipped around a bit. Let’s stop looking at the car in front of us, let’s stop looking at the people around us, and let’s take an honest look at ourselves. What are some areas in YOUR life that God has shown you the GREEN light, but you haven’t moved? You’ve prayed. You’ve asked for His guidance. You’ve asked for Him to open some doors. And when He did…
You didn’t move.
Your car is still parked.
The difference between God and you…He’s not honking, He’s not cussing, He’s not flipping you the bird and honking some more. He’s waiting. He’s holding the door open.
God said to do it; why aren’t you moving?
God said it’s yours; why haven’t you taken it?
God’s done His part; what about yours?
