"But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.”
the past two or three days I really have struggled with this...
Am I comfortable, and why do I want to be? And am I content with where I am at, so God can and has to be prevalent in my life. I honestly don't like the answer, but at the same time I love it. The answer is no I am not comfortable, and have not been for some time, but I also am not depending on God...
So where is the gap? Why am I struggling and staying out of my comfort zone if I am not going to submit to Him anyways? Am I not just decieving myself, or am I trying to make myself feel better about not following Him?
The other nit I had a dream that Christ came, He handed me the book, and my name was not there. All that was written was "many will say Lord, Lord..." you know the rest. I woke up sweating, it was the single most terrifying thing to in my gut... Ahh! To know I know Him, but I may not... Know Him. That is terrifying to me. The fact that when that day comes and I stand before the throne. I may hear "I never knew you" or "I know you, but where is the fruit? what did you do with my Son?"
Do I preach Christ... Much less Christ crucified. The one that put breathe in my lungs, and a song on my lips. Do I tell of His wonderous deeds? Am I unashamed? Cause if so, would I not give Him everything 110% not just 10%??
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. (Colossians 3:16, 17 ESV)
