“I learned that the world is actually filled with people
ready to tell you how likely something is, and what it means to be realistic.
But what I have also learned is that no one, no one truly knows what is
possible until they go and do it. “
Apparently I grind my teeth at night when I'm stressed. Which isn't so nice for my jaw. So this weekend was spent in Kigali watching The Office, spending hours on pinterest, and reflecting on this life that I am living that at often times seems filled with the impossible....
It seems impossible that after only spending five days in a country I upped and moved there. It seems impossible that I was supported in doing this. It seems impossible that I live on a separate continent from my family and am still able to function. It seems impossible that I started a business. It seems impossible that I am in charge of 25 men. It seems impossible that our website will soon be opening and we will actually start selling our stellar products. It seems impossible that every month the exact amount of money I need comes into my bank account.
Living life with realistic expectations, is living life with God in a box. God is so much bigger then this world and limitations we set for ourselves. All of those seemingly impossible things happened, not because of me and my awesomeness, but because I serve an almighty God who displays His power.
Step out in faith and marvel at all the possibility that God offers.
I am astonished at your trust. Stepping out of the box seems crazy. I want to trust God, but I fear the moment I step out the weight of the world will come crashing down and crush me. I admire your faith and your courage. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSo true. I'm encouraged and inspired at what God is doing through you! All we need to do is be obedient and He can do exceedingly more than we could ever imagine.
