"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." - 2 Timothy 1:7I am at a beautiful point in my life to where I do not worry about whether or not the net of safety will be there. I am at peace knowing that the Lord will protect, guide, and strengthen me as I edge closer and closer to THE CLIFF. I will refer to what I'm talking about as THE CLIFF for now. Not a literal cliff, though. This is just a figure of speech.
THE CLIFF has brought me over and given me stability and what seems to be like safety. It has given me the resources and inspiration to move forward and possibly burrow myself deeper into what I enjoy doing. THE CLIFF has motivated me to cling to my individuality and creativity, since I have tried failingly to blend in with those who reside on and in it.
This cliff that I refer to will be the LIFE of me. And when I take my leap, I won't be looking back. I won't want to return. I will simply DELVE into the purpose that the Lord has for me and forge forward. I won't worry. I will only persevere. I will survive. I will thrive. And I will expand.
I am squatting and looking at how deep the plunge will be...and I'm not afraid. I come prepared with a rope and a waistband. No net? That's cool. Jesus' hand is good enough.
“No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money." - Matthew 6:24
