Where Your Map Ends, God Begins
Where Your Map Ends, God Begins
Reading: Acts 8:1-4
Devotional: The early believers did not choose to leave Jerusalem. Persecution drove them out. What looked like devastation was actually divine deployment. Their comfort zone was dismantled so that the gospel could advance beyond familiar borders. God has never been limited by the maps you have drawn for your life. The routines, the predictable rhythms, the comfortable theology — none of these contain him.
When the edges of your understanding run out, God is already present in the territory ahead. Every great movement of God begins where someone's map ends. Surrender the map. Trust the one who made the land.
Reflection: What familiar borders have you drawn that may be keeping you from following God into something new?
