Trust inspiring action

Trusting God for my future in realms of career and usefulness gives me peace, but doesn't encourage laziness. If I really believe that God wants to use me, and will make it happen despite my weakness and inability to find my way without him, I won't want to react by waiting around and doing nothing. On the contrary, if I really believe that God WILL use me, I should find myself peacefully working hard to prepare in whatever areas I think he might call me in. Knocking on doors that I think he might call me through, building skills I hope he might use.
