Be A Risk Taker.


This is a lesson I've been learning in my life lately, enjoy!

Playing it safe isn't always the best way to play it. Sometimes God challenges us to do something we've never thought of. Well, God sees a bigger picture than what we see. All we can REALLY see is what's happening NOW. Sometimes despite of our fears of the bad that COULD happen, we have to step out of our comfort zone and take a risk. There's a bigger chance that something amazing will happen, and it's guaranteed to be for the best if God told you to step out and do it.
Our life, as we're following Jesus, won't always be easy. But we'll never be alone.
We might be afraid of what others will think, but if God says "YES" Nobody can say "NO".
We need to walk in obedience to our God.
Trust Him. Step out in faith. God will reward you for your obedience to Him.
And don't be afraid, fear is NEVER from God! And why would you want to listen to something that wasn't from God? We have NOTHING to fear because we have GOD. <3


"For God gave us a spirit NOT of fear but of POWER and LOVE and SELF-CONTROL." 
~ 2 Timothy 1:7


Here's an example of obedience, risk taking, and stepping out in faith from the bible:

 
Hebrews 11:8-10

"By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God."

I want to be like Abraham!
