Being stuck can mean a lot of different things.
Right now, you may be feeling mentally stuck in your current job.
You feel that you cannot resign, cannot find a better job, or perhaps just can’t find happiness in your current job.
Are you coming out of a season when life threw you some curve balls? Maybe your finances spiraled out of control or your marriage hit rock bottom. Maybe you lost your job or decided to leave your church. Maybe a close friendship faded and needs mending, or maybe you lost a loved one.
I think fresh starts begin when we ask God to guide our steps. It comes from the knowledge that through Christ, a fresh start is always available to us. You see, when we stumble and fall, God doesn’t notate that. He is a forgiving God who acknowledges our own setbacks, and encourages us to try again. Just as the father who nudges his child to put a Band-Aid on their skinned knee and get back on the bicycle, God picks us up when we fall.
The Bible tells us in Joshua 1:9, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
