Have you had your Joy Juice today? Drink in the ecstatic joy of stepping outside
your comfort zone and finding the gifts God has for you!
Stepping
outside our comfort zones requires boldness….going beyond what we can see and
feel and know. According to The Bible
for Hope: “When people have faith in
God, they know without a doubt that He will keep His promises. They live and make choices in this world
based on the unseen reality of their future home in heaven. They persevere in their faith despite pain,
hardship, or persecution, because they are convinced that the unseen God is
with them. In short, faith in God makes
all the difference, both now and for eternity.”
Abraham is a great Biblical
example of someone leaving his comfort zone and stepping out in faith. He practiced an inside-out faith. What he believed in his mind and heart, he
put to action with his life. He turned
trust into travel and experienced God’s grace and power along the way.” God’s promises to Abraham did come true…but in
His perfect timing, not Abraham’s.
Let’s
strive to be like Abraham…practicing “inside-out faith”. It’s one thing to SAY we believe…but it’s
another thing to willingly trust in God’s plan and His perfect timing. As Psalms 27:14 says: “Wait for the Lord; be strong and
let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord.”
Step out of your comfort zone and enter into
God’s zone of ecstatic joy.
