I Just Don’t Want To SHIFT

Sometimes we stay in situations, careers, or relationships because whether right or wrong, they are just comfortable. When we are pushed to step out of our comfort zone, this can cause discomfort! We become afraid of making mistakes, failure, or losing something that we didn’t know we would miss once it was gone. Most people cringe when it comes to change! And it is usually due to a fear of the unknown.

Remember when we were young, our parents or elder would always say, “I got my eye on you!” Well God is the same way. Psalm 32:8 states, “I will instruct you and show you the way to go; with my eye on you, I will give counsel.” When I read this today an immediate thought came to my mind; that even when I am uncomfortable, God will direct me. Even when it is difficult and I am afraid, He will guide me. Life will always bring uncertainty, but I cannot stay dormant. Life is about chances and advancement. But in order to advance, we not only must grow but SHIFT in different directions. And the best time to do this is when you are uncomfortable!
