In John 14:8-9, Philip asked Jesus to show him the “Father” and that it would be enough to comfort and give him strength.  Then Jesus said: “Don’t you know me…anyone who has seen me, has seen the Father.”
Oswald Chambers had a great perspective on this saying: “The mystery of God is not in what is going to be-it is now…”
How often are we looking for some grand exhibit of God to come show us the way, yet the entire time He is working in and through us and showing us His work.  We wait for God in the experiences and that same awareness or hope for that experience is what is blocking us from realizing His work in us right now.
God is guiding you in the here and now, you need only to “Be Still” as the Psalmist says, and listen to His work in you today.  God is not looking forward to developing His will in you at some point in the future, He is establishing His plans for you in the present.  If you want to recognize His work in you, pray to that end.  Stay close to Him through digesting His word and praying throughout your day.  If you’ve been a Christ follower for any time, you can look back and see how He’s orchestrated your life.
Well, He hasn’t stopped; God continues to work in you right now.
Father, allow me to patient enough, quiet enough, and open to your leading. Show me your work, give me faith like a child, and help me rest in your plan for me…in the present!
