Have you ever ever felt like perhaps you missed the boat when it got here to following the calling God positioned in your coronary heart? Perhaps you heard Him summoning you loud and clear years in the past to one thing that felt out of your consolation zone … to share your story, write a e book, converse at church, begin a ministry, launch a weblog … however life, concern, procrastination and doubts precipitated you to hesitate for thus lengthy, that you just now concern it’s too late.
My Proverbs 31 devotion as we speak, You’re Not Beginning Over, You’re Stepping Ahead, talks about that precise topic. The reality is, I perceive this concern mindset all too effectively.
A few years in the past, throughout a strong worship service, I heard God name me to “go and share.” It wasn’t a little bit nudge – it was a loud, very clear message from the Lord straight to my coronary heart. But, moderately than obey, I ignored it. In actual fact, for six years. Yikes.
I served in different methods, however not in the best way He had requested me to. However lastly, I couldn’t ignore that holy name to “go and share” anymore, and started sharing my story at my talking engagements and finally in my second revealed e book, Your Life Nonetheless Counts.
Previous to that although, I assumed I had missed the boat. Certainly God was upset in me for my years of disobedience and for doubting He knew what was finest. Certainly it was too late for me to lastly obey – nevertheless it wasn’t.
It’s by no means too late to do the best factor – the God factor – we’re referred to as to do.
God had a plan for my life, as He does yours, and though I ran from it at first, finally my religion turned stronger than my fears, and I’ve no regrets to this present day for giving Him, and myself, an opportunity on doing issues that felt manner out of my consolation zone and capabilities.
What’s God calling you to try this you could have been placing on the again burner for what looks as if legitimate causes? No matter it’s, bear in mind this: God’s goal for our lives isn’t one thing we will miss, lose or age out of. He’s a affected person heavenly Father, and once we’re prepared, He’ll welcome us into our goal with open arms and lead us each step of the best way.
