This blog post is based off of 2 Chronicles 6:1-10 from the "New Women's Devotional Bible".
When King David dreamed to build the temple, God had told him that his son, Solomon, would be the one to build it. David obeyed God, and planned as much as he could for his when his son would take over a king. David knew that he must obey the plan that God had and his son Solomon built the temple of the Lord.
Sometimes we leave loose ends on our lives for others to pick up. King David left the work of the temple to be done by his son. Maybe there are times when we leave the work for someone else to come along and finish it. It may be leaving a classroom that you've spent so much time invested in, or you have brought someone to God but another person will mentor them or study with them. Whatever it may be, these loose ends are left and picked up for a reason.
Just like King David left the temple to be built by his son, we too leave things for others to accomplish. Or maybe you are on the other end? Maybe you have picked up someone elses loose ends and left your personal touch on them. Maybe God was laying out something special for you just like he did Solomon. Whatever end you may be on, God has a plan.
Maybe there is something in your life right now that God is asking you to leave. He has someone else in mind to come along and pick it up. Listen and know that there is a plan in action. God may just want you to move forward to a new and different phase in your life!
