Last night it stormed and this morning I woke up to a grey sky filled with heavy clouds full of rain and God said “come walk with me.” My ego told me to get an umbrella, but God said “trust in me.” So I put on my workout clothes and began to walk. As I began walking doubts entered my mind telling me that it would start raining hard and I would get drenched and would be embarrassed. I let that thought pass through my mind and kept walking. The walk and the uncertainty of a downpour made me think of my faith and I wondered when was the last time I let go and put complete trust in God. Other than this walk I believe I have been straddling the fence for years. Although my faith and spiritually is very strong, when I think about following my dreams I let fear dominate and I go back to playing it safe. This walk allowed me to further reflect on this and I have made the decision to live my dreams and to fully allow God to provide my every need. Is that scary of course, but is it necessary definitely! It’s time for us to move away from the status quo and do what we feel is best for our lives. Sometimes all it takes is for us to take that next step to realize how close we are to our dreams. You only live once and I rather look back on my life saying I followed my dreams rather than having regrets.
