- Move Beyond
- No comments
“Comfort” is a behavioral space where your activities and behaviors fit a routine and pattern that minimizes stress and risk. It provides a state of mental security. You benefit in obvious ways: regular happiness, low anxiety, and reduced stress.
Because of all the benefits, the challenge to MOVE BEYOND comfort often falls on deaf ears. Who in their right mind would want to move beyond that? However, if you read Luke 9:57-62, you will find Jesus challenging us to do just that.
In reality, everything we have talked about, in the last eight weeks, has challenged us to MOVE BEYOND comfort to taking a risk. They all require a move from the known and comfortable to the unknown and less comfortable.
However, as a follower of Jesus, we can have the courage to move out of our area of comfort and take a risk because God never asks anything of us that he will not also equip us to accomplish. God never asks of us the impossible…because with God, all things are possible.
When you MOVE BEYOND whatever God is calling you to move beyond:
- You experience real growth in your relationship to Christ and others
- You find lasting solutions to the challenges of life
- You will know true fulfillment in daily living
Don’t miss out on the great things God has planned for you when you MOVE BEYOND.
Gratefully,
