Growth Takes Action

If we're not a little bit uncomfortable everyday, we're not growing. All the good stuff is outside our comfort zone. 

The Lord is not wanting me to just be okay with inconvenience. It's one thing for me to stand in line and observe, it's a whole other story to choose to let my story collide with inconvenience. Be faithful, even in the wilderness, even when no one else is looking - He is preparing you for the great work ahead.

We ask and expect God to move the obstacles from our path when it is not the obstacles that need to be moved, but we who need to be moved. Sometimes we are on the wrong path and the hurdles we cross are there to redirect us, to slow us down, to get us to pay attention to our surroundings and realize we should be on another road. But instead of slowing down, examining ourselves, assessing where we are, where we’re going and why we’re going there, we just keep on running. All the while, asking God to knock down the hurdles when it was actually He who placed them on the path to get our attention.

I joyfully launch each day with God!

Blessings,
Dalinda
