"God doesn't do greater thinks exclusively through great people. He does them through anyone who is willing to trust Him in greater ways".
I turned 40 two weeks ago.
Ouch.
For the last few months I have been reflecting on many many things. One of them being that I don't want to live my next 40 years (Lord willing) the same way I lived my last 40.
For the most part I have lived the majority of my life in a constant state of fear. I suffered panic and anxiety attacks for most of my 20's. I am not sure why I have been gripped by fear for most of my life. I have been blessed with a wonderful childhood, a wonderful family to grow up in and I married my soul mate. God has been good to me and still I am bound by the chains of the enemy at times. I don't want it to be that way in my next 40 years. I want to be free. I want to live my life for God, unafraid of what others my think or say about me.
So what does greater look like for me?
-it means less of me and more of Him
-it means being able to look outside of myself and seeing the needs of others around me
-it means stepping out of my comfort zone and letting Him take the reigns of my life
-being great in the little things so I can do greater things for HIS glory
Trusting Him in greater ways .......that is exactly what greater looks like.
