Have you ever noticed how life often rises or falls to the level of your own expectations? The story you play over and over in your head causes ever deepening grooves that begin to block your view of any other perspective than the one you’ve already seen. Your experience teaches you all too well how events will unfold. After all, we’ve heard this story before, haven’t we?
And so we settle. We settle into the sameness and stop noticing those unique flashes all around where life breaks through the monotony. Oh there’s something to be said for the mundane… we can’t live without it. But I don’t want to get stuck in it, either. I don’t want to settle into taking all the same routes to all the same places I’ve already been. There are just too many places to go and people to see. Too many adventures waiting to be had…
What about you? Is God nudging you out of comfort and into some unknown adventure? Does He want to stretch you and take you further in your journey than you’ve ever dared to go before? What new horizons does He want to show you? Can I help you get there somehow? You might never find out if you don’t take that next step in front of you. Go ahead. His dreams for you are greater than you can imagine. Go live them. Don’t settle.
