My first post on this blog was about being courageous enough to face your fears and to make things happen. Things have been happening here in Vegas, that's for sure.
This morning in church, Pastor Paul read from Deuteronomy & Joshua. The scriptures he taught from talked about facing our fears and how God goes before us. HE makes a way for us. We don't need to fight the battle, its already been done, we just have to claim the victory and walk in it.
We live in a weak society. Everyone is looking for the easy way out.
The Bible clearly states that obedience is better than sacrifice. God may tell us to do something that we don't want to do, in the end, if we are obedient to His will and His calling we will be blessed abundantly.
We need to stop looking for the easy way out. Nothing is free, and anything worth something is worth stepping out in faith for and obeying for a moment or two of discomfort. I for one would rather be uncomfortable for a few months or years, rather than living a lifetime of regret and what ifs.
If you feel that there is something telling you to make a change or to step out in faith, do it. Stop making excuses, face your fear. It may turn out to be the greatest opportunity of your life.
A true leader recognizes the next step, and courageously pushes on. Are you a courageous leader?
"Courage is what we do with our strength. It's doing the right thing rather than doing what's convenient."

wonderful post! u r so right - nothing in life comes free - if we want something or if we want to prevent something - we have to pay for it with making some effort on our part or taking some steps ahead
Thanks! I am glad to see that someone actually read this!! It has been so long since I have posted I didnt think anyone would see it. I like your blog as well. Very interesting.
Don't worry, Val. There are probably lots of anonymous readers. We just don't post comments, that's all.
