As I mentioned before, God has really been doing some overhauling in the department of priorities in my life. And the changes aren't always comfortable or convenient. Some adjustments should be ridiculously easy to make but dumb ole' me doesn't always want to change my ways. And then I may get backlash or opinions towards my shift from the way I have always done things. This is typically a difficult thing for me to handle as I don't like to upset others or answer their questions as to why I would do something so different. I am not one to be too excited about conflict or disagreement, but I do like to share what Jesus is doing in my life. My prayer is that they can see my heart and be supportive even if it is something they are not personally called to.
But, you know something cool? I am getting better at accepting the discomfort. It feels right. Crazy enough, I am praying for a little more discomfort in my life. I am asking the Father to continue to do His work in me no matter the cost. I want to be willing to change. I want to allow The Potter to mold me in His fashion, not mine and definitely not others.
There are several areas that I am asking the Lord to make clear of which path to take, what changes to implement, what to keep, and what to release. I do see more changes coming! And I am excited! So far the direction we have felt the Lord calling our family has been so refreshing!
I am tired of being comfortable. We need to be poked and prodded every now and then. Try asking the Lord to make you uncomfortable and see what happens! You may be surprised!
