I was thinking today about how funny it seems that God is constantly taking us out of our comfort zones. Its like he lets us be comfortable just long enough to get rested up and then BAMM, we are at it again. I mean California God are you serious! But i feel better when my company is found in the scripture. Seriously, Who in the bible sat back and had a nice simple life with no leaps of faith AND ( a very big and) was mightily used by God. Abraham takes his son on a mountain to sacrifice him, Jacob wrestles with God after he thinks everyone who has known him would like to kill him, Moses leads around a stubborn people for 40 years, And don't even get me started on Peter, Paul, john, James, and the list goes on. I'm not saying that everyone needs to sell there house and move to California( although i would enjoy the company) I just think its amazing how much are comforts can get in the way of what God wants to do. God cant fill you, love through you, use you, if you are to full of yourself! Not just vain, more like " i'll do what makes me happy". God doesn't hold back The Gospel of John says " he pours out his spirit without measure' that means no limit, so if hes not working in our lives maybe we should see if comfort has clogged the faucet. That doesn't mean i'm not scared to death sometimes. hahah But i know if he has called, Then he will provide! --- Ryan
