“The First Step” Nehemiah 1:4-11
When you’re confronted with an issue or problem, what is the first thing that you do? Do you make a plan? Do you seek advice? Do you try to ignore it and hope it goes away? Last week we began our new message series, “Nehemiah: Moving Forward,” where we saw Nehemiah begin this journey by assessing where he was so that he could move forward in the right way and right direction. But in his assessment he found a huge problem that would need to be addressed–the people of Jerusalem were at great risk of life and limb. How would Nehemiah address the problem? Where would he go first? And when we face a difficult issue, does our first step match Nehemiah’s?
