When to Stir Things Up

I was cooking a few nights ago and I had chicken in the bottom of the pan and at veggies on top. I wanted to get some good browning on the chicken. If you cook, you know that you jut need to let the food rest and for the perfect amount of time (too long and you have burnt food and if you stir it too soon, the dish won't be as good). Anyway... as I was resisting the urge to stir too soon, I started thinking. Sometimes, it's hard to rest like we should. And sometimes, we rest too long when God is telling us to get up and do something!

So, how do we know when it's okay to rest in Christ and just take on His peace? That's something that I'm trying to figure out. Prayer and time with God are really the only ways to know. I continually pray that God would give me a sense of peace when I'm on the right track and would stir something up in me when I'm chillin' for too long. Right now, God is really stirring something in me. I can't wait to find out what He has in store for us!
