The Lord loves me! He does... He really does! Wow! I feel a little like Sally Fields at the Oscars. It's overwhelming. Sigh~ He dreams for His children and not small dreams either. I believe that He dreams greatness for all of us. When I say greatness that could definitely stir us to poke out our little spiritual chest but that would be wrong. Hahaha no I mean God has designed and dreamed and given us everything we need to be great in Him. I believe too many times we only tap into safe-but-ordinary though. We hold onto the things and people that make us feel safe so we don't have to experience discomfort on any level if we can help it. The problem is that the greatness of God is often displayed through our brokenness and discomfort. I guess I'm getting older and I'm finding myself in uncomfortable and broken spots. I get scared but I'm learning to roll with it. I'm learning that I can hold tightly to my life or release it all to Him. Truth is my strength to hold it is unable to keep from God anyway. I'm finding the theme of my heart is shouting to anyone who will listen.... Go for it! Do it! You have this one life and God is worth every risk. If the thing you do is for God and lines up with His word then let His perfected love drive out all your fear and if your still scared then do it anyway... I've had many great things happen in the face of unreasonable fear.
God is good. He just is and there is nothing that can change that. He's 100% trustworthy. He always hopes. He never fails...... Let's just let all of that rub off on us!
