Change is coming....

"I've got to hold it steady, keep my head in the game - everything is about to change, everything is about to change.  This hurt is getting heavy, but I'm not about to cave - everything is about to change, there's gonna be brighter days. I'm gonna move......."    Move by MercyMe


There is a song by MercyMe called "Move".  This tune always plays in my head when I feel like it's time to do something else.  Of course, I mostly feel like this when I am at work.  Hmm, I think that's a hint.

One thing I have been struggling with is discerning between when to stay and when to go.  This is true for a lot of things, such as work and friends. Fear steps in and paralyzes any movement. I think I've grown accustomed to familiarity and a false sense of security that it can blind me from opportunities to move and grow.  Well, I need to break away from the "comfort zone" and head towards that scary, unfamiliar that can lead to an incredible journey of faith and fortitude.  It can also lead me to what I am supposed to be doing with all the gifts God has blessed me with.  But, I'm scared...

It's always interesting how I can help others in their fear and cannot seem to help myself. *sigh* Well, I want this time to be different.  This time, I actually want to move in the direction God wants me to....even afraid. Reaching the breaking point of circumstances will do that to a person.

Lord, although I am afraid, I will trust in You and Your plans for my life.  May my ears hear Your voice saying, "this is the way, walk in it"(Isaiah 30:21).  Amen

Until next time,
