There comes a time when, after sitting on the sidelines, you are called to the field.  You may not feel prepared.  You might not think yourself strong enough.  But when you are called, you better jump to it with all the enthusiasm you can muster.

I used to think being a Christian meant bring good.  Being compliant.  The last couple of years have taught me different.  Yes, it’s important to be a good person but you are never called to be a doormat.

Jesus does not call you to be a victim.  He calls you to take His strength, His courage and His power to use to glorify Him.

He came to start a revolution against the standard religious practices. He stormed the establishment and He brought about change that is still relavent 2000+ years later.

Sometimes God lays down a foundation of His truths that you may not have seen before. He has time, so it can unfold gradually.  Then one day you get a metaphysical baseball hit to your knees and you have to decide which way you will proceed.

We live in very uncertain times. People are not always what they say.  We must be on guard and be ever vigilant.

We must seek God’s direction in all things these days. I feel like I’m finally being called to play, I haven’t practiced, I am not strong but I’ll let Jesus do the heavy lifting…i just need to show up.

If you are struggling lately, unsure of your place. Not sure you will be called.  My advice is to pray.  Seek His guidance and His strength.

You are stronger than you think. The world is going to need those who believe. It isn’t going to be an easy road but what in life is easy?

I’m finding there is so much more to live in the uneasy. Do not let fear stop you from playing your part. You ARE a warrior!!
