I like to be comfortable. I am a fan of the easy. I don’t like to stretch myself. But God has other plans. He pushes me out of my comfort zone and into the unknown. I try to follow His lead.
I was all ready to stand up on that comedy club stage for five whole minutes and entertain people. Well, I wasn’t really ready, I was just willing. And then it was cancelled — and I was RELIEVED! Whew!
Apparently God didn’t want me to do this. At least, that’s what I told myself. I was off the hook.
I knew I had to try again. I have to step into that uncomfortable place and trust what God has called me to do. I’m rescheduled at the comedy club for June 16th.
It’s back to the grind of preparing to do something that I’m not comfortable with. I am comfortable speaking to large groups. I use humor every time I speak or teach. But God has called me to use humor to cast a wider net. I’m out of my comfort zone. But I’m stepping out in God’s plan.
Is God calling you to something that isn’t exactly in your comfort zone?
Are you willing to go into the uncomfortable?
Well, flitter! I had wondered all weekend how it went. You be sure and have that hubby of yours video it when you do finally get to do it!! We all want to be part of it even if we can be there in person.
Perfect article for me today. Settling into the comfortable keeps me from pushing on to that place that I know to be. Be bold – at least you know that there is One that has your back. 🙂
Praying for JUNE 16, girlfriend!!! Post a little clip and I’ll give you a Texas-sized laugh!! You are so gonna rock this!
