I grew up on a farm, We had a lane that went between our field and the neighbor's field. After a while of driving that same path with trucks, tractors and heavy equipment that lane which gave us access became to deep ruts and it became most difficult to leave the lane except at either end. We would then have to plow up the hardened path to eliminate the ruts. In a few years we would need to plow it all over again. We like the well worn track, it is familiar, safe; until it traps us. Even then we deal with it for a time because it serves it's purpose and its so easy just to stick with what works.
Or it could be we are afraid of change.
Feel the fear and do it anyway. God did not intend for you to be stuck.
We want more of you God. God says, "I want more of you too!" Launch out into the deep to see what He wants to do...
Disturb us, Lord, when
We are too pleased with ourselves,
When our dreams have come true
Because we dreamed too little,
When we arrived safely
Because we sailed too close to the shore.
Disturb us, Lord, when
With the abundance of things we possess
We have lost our thirst
For the waters of life;
Having fallen in love with life,
We have ceased to dream of eternity
And in our efforts to build a new earth,
We have allowed our vision
Of the new Heaven to dim.
Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly,
To venture on wilder seas
Where storms will show Your mastery;
Where losing sight of land,
We shall find the stars.
We ask you to push back
The horizons of our hopes;
And to push back the future
In strength, courage, hope, and love.
~ Sir Francis Bacon
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT WILL COME!!
Take a risk and launch out. Don't stall, this stagnation is not his plan, nor is being stuck or looking back. Adventure is glory to glory, not stale faith. 1 Cor. 2:9
Speak in faith, "I want what you want. God" No qualifiers, no hesitation or fear.
