I'm going to say this first. I am a cautious person by nature. I guess all of us are that in a way. We always move toward the familiar because it's a safe place to be. However, I have learned that when this comfort invades our life, we never truly start to live. Sure I've gone on many adventures but not without careful planning and consideration before this so called adventure started out. I always knew the end result or knew what I was getting myself into.
I've never been sky diving, bungee jumping or gone deep sea diving. I've always have played it safe, I put my toe in and then once I know it's "safe" then I jump in or rather wade into a situation. This is going to be changing this year. I'm not one to make New Year's Resolutions because I know I will always fall short of any of them. I am setting goals that I am to accomplish this year.
These goals are not only attainable but goals that I believe in and have some risk involved in them. I have already completed one of my goals for this year and am proud that I actually stuck with it and followed through to its completion. I am going to start taking more and more risks each and every day even if it's uncomfortable.
When I put my faith in Christ, I gave Him my life to do what he wants to do with it. I however have been trying to play backseat driver and that's not fair to either one of us. It's not allowing Jesus to be fully involved and I'm not fully experiencing all the amazing opportunities that He has for me. There have been things that I have been thinking about and because they are sensitive topics, I'm not going to be sharing in this public area but leaving it up to God and sees what he does with them.
I'm excited about being more open and more willing to say yes instead of dragging my feet with a decision.
Sorry a short post but I felt that I needed to share and put it in the open.
