Moving out and away from your comfort zone

Can you imagine if God, one day told you, like how he told Abraham in Genesis 12, “Leave your country, your people, and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you…”

Sometimes I wonder if God were to tell me something similar, that I will be able to do the same. Leaving your comfort zone, going to uncharted waters, doing something that you’ve never done before…

Even as I ponder about this thought, it holds the same in many things that we do. Our apprehension when it comes to a new environment, undertaking a new ministry, starting a new relationship, all these, requires us to move away from our comfort zone, it requires us to embrace change and transformation. Sometimes, we just hold back when it comes to new things. Many times, we don’t adapt to changes around us, but we try to change our new environment to fit to our old system.

God has given us promise after promise in His Word, that He will always be with us. Sometimes, we forget that, and we tend to go back to the way of familiarity, to our comfort zone. What ever happened to the element of Faith?

What is God asking you today, to do something, something new, bold, creative, exciting? Or are we contented with what we have?
