my best advice!
LEARNING FROM THE LEGENDS...
"Then God said to Noah...Make for yourself
an ark...I am bringing the flood...everything
that is on the earth shall perish...But I will
establish My covenant with you."
-Genesis 6:13-18
I recently noticed this.  When God approached Noah about building an ark, there were many logical responses that Noah could have given such as, "What's an ark?"  "Why me?"  "How am I going to explain this?"  "But I've never done this before!"  And so on.  A lot of those responses seem legitimate to me, but the only response we find in scripture is as follows:
"Thus Noah did."
-Genesis 6:22
I see the same thing with Abraham.  In Genesis 12:1 God tells him to "go."  Genesis 12:4 tells us Abraham's response, "So Abram went forth."  No arguments.  No complaining.  No second-guessing.  It strikes me that Noah and Abraham are two pretty big names in Christendom.  I wonder if their unconditional and absolute surrender to God has anything to do with that?
Are you looking for God to do great things in your life?  Are you waiting for the next move of His Spirit?  Are you in search of God's "strong support?"  The "good hand" of the Lord upon you? 
Here's my best advice...
"Thus Noah did."
