Daryl Go Your Way....

Mark my words,
you can't find comfort in the arms of constrictors.
Lift back the scabs of content and prepare for change.

There is a dream that stirs within me. A dream that threatened to become buried under the busyness of a job and service in church. A dream that could quietly become overwhelmed by the tasks at hand that shout their importance. I have not been fueling this dream. I haven't taken time to imagine and develop this. I haven't had time to study the Word and feed my spirit. I've not prayed like I must and ministered as I should. And yet, God causes this desire within me to burn like a thousand candles. Still, He invites me to shatter my limits with His infinite power.

What are my limits?
They are my sinfulness, my pride, my laziness, my unworthiness, lack of ability and finances, and my taking God for granted. Someone told me very concisely that I've been given more opportunities & second chances then most people can dream of. That is precisely my point. When I present my limitations to God, His Grace comes and covers my limitations.

So what is the next step?
Luke 10 documents Jesus sending out the 72 disciples. (some translations 70)
Jesus' specific instructions can be summarised in verse 3 & 9. He says, "Go your way! Heal the sick and say to them, 'The Kingdom of God has come near to you.' "
In fact, much of Jesus instructions to the disciples made them become more outward looking. Never once in the gospel that says that Christians are to sit in church every Sunday listening to a sermon. Almost every teaching of Jesus was meant for believers to take and bring to the world. It is time to make it right.
