Jump

Lately, I’ve felt nudged by God to do things that make me feel unsure. Because they are the kinds of adventures that require faith. And fearlessness. Utter abandon. They are things I can’t manage alone. And there is no  guarantee of success.

When God presents the ideas … I like to tip toe to the edge and try to gauge how difficult it will be to get to the other side. I try to predetermine my success and my security. And as I stand in safety, notebook in hand, jotting down all the possibilities on how to get across … God just says

Jump. I’ll get you there.

I am starting to realize, until I jump, I’ll never know how to give life to the idea and complete the project. I’ll never be a part of the adventure. Because God didn’t ask me to tip toe to the edge of the water …

Jump.

How has God asked you to ‘jump?’
