Take the Risk
(Matthew 25:29 NIV) “…For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them….”

One of the most debilitating habits we can have is that of living life in lockdown safety mode for the sake of taking risks. Life is all about taking risks! What good is there in having a vision or a goal if we aren’t willing to take a risk and see what happens? If we insist on knowing that everything will work out like we want it to before we ever give anything a try, we’ll never grow the kind of muscles required to do Kingdom service. When we make the decision to take a risk for something our spirit urges us to do, we say without words, “God, we trust you to help us every step of the way.” Your vision, your goals – they have their purposed seasons in life. They are important parts to a greater plan God has in mind. Gear up, and make a move on what beckons you to grow! It’s better to take the risk of seeing what may become of your vision rather than to play it safe and risk losing out on a God-sized blessing.
