Do You Dare?
Tuesday, September 29, 2009 at 12:24PM If I had to sum up my year thus far in a question that I've most often asked myself, it would be... "Do you dare?" After living in the comfortable room I had created for myself for so many years, God knocked on the door and asked me if I dared. Do I dare to leave what I know as comfortable and safe? Do I dare to have the courage to find my talents? And most importantly, once they've been revealed, do I dare to pursue them?
The raw truth is it took me years to get to where I could even verbalize them. So talk of walking out of my quiet and familiar room, heading down the hall, and out the door into wide open spaces was a bit unnerving. But that feeling in my heart, that stirring... it's there for a reason. It's there to tell me that just around the corner is a world of possibility and purpose. And God has given me the key to it... but I believe He asks ME to unlock it. Because it is ultimately my choice and turning the key is a step noone else can take for you.
My little blog friends, be encouraged.
Take heart.
Each is gifted.
Put your key to use... we will all be better for it.
