So today’s word is, “wiggle, do something, but pick up your mess and move on.” It took Jesus to come to this man and ask him, “Do you really want to get well?” Jesus was amazed that this lame man allowed himself to stay in that situation when he could have changed his circumstances with just a little wiggle, just a little effort, and the lame man could have gotten into that pool and been healed.
So often in our lives we are so close to our victory, so close to the answer. Instead of wiggling and putting ourselves into the pool, or into God’s plan for us, we lay there and feel sorry for ourselves, expecting someone else to do it for us. God has given us the answer; it’s found in Him! Today let’s wiggle and do what Jesus told the man to do: “Pick up your mess and walk and move on from here!”
Today I am picking up my mess and making it a message of God’s grace and power in my life. Because when we look to Him for all the answers we are forever changed by God’s transforming power!
