VOL. 52 : N o 3 : IN PRINT SINCE '73 INSIDE MARCH Editor's Letter Step Into the Flow! Ever had one of those times when you felt that everyone seemed to be headed in the right direction but you? That while others were moving forward and progressing in their spiritual walk, you were at a standstill—pretty much marching in place, marking time and getting nowhere fast? It reminds me a lot of my high school marching band days. We would march down the football field, counting off steps as we moved from one marker to the next. Then, with marked precision, we would come to a standstill and march in place—feet moving up and down as we silently counted to ourselves while anticipating moving into the next formation. When all was said and done, we usually ended up right back where we started. There have been times in my faith walk when it seemed I was standing still and marking time. Like I was a bystander just watching as others around me keep moving, stepping out and going with the flow of what God was telling them to do and where He was leading them. Thankfully, years of Bible study and listening to the Holy Spirit have taught me not to get attached to those kinds of feelings because they are not from God, but from Satan. He's the one who comes to kill, steal and destroy (John 10:10). I've learned that Jesus came to give me life in abundance, that my heavenly Father has a world of blessings stored up for me, and that it is His will for me to have them. To get them, though, I can't just stand around waiting for something to happen. I must keep moving forward—putting one foot in front of the other and going after what God has for me. Standing still and marking time gets us nowhere. But stepping out into the flow of God's Word, listening to and obeying the direction of the Holy Spirit, will always take us to where He wants us to be. In her article this month titled "Go With the Flow!" (Page 26), Gloria Copeland offers some encouraging words about stepping into the flow of the Spirit so we can have everything we need. She writes, "You and I don't have to be bystanders who just watch what God is doing. We can be part of it if we want to, and I'm telling you right now—I want to!" Well, so do I! How about you?
