1485 What's Life Without A Little Risk?

How much of your day is guaranteed? Your success. Your
failures. Your smiles. Instead of surviving, it's time for
thriving. What's life without a little risk?


This is a time of reflection; an intrinsic look as to how you see
things, why you feel things the way you do, and the path that
you're walking.

If you want to think deep, we are not guaranteed anything. We're
not guaranteed today or tomorrow. We have this minute in a
moment.


As I was reorganizing my books, I started looking at the titles.
In all these titles were promises or problems faced from the
perspective of the author.


Loving Him Well

5 Minutes with Jesus

Siriously Delicious



And then I looked at my library of Bibles. It simply has Bible
written on them. Maybe a reference to the version, but otherwise
Bible.


In life, we learn through taking chances. But who and what we put
our faith into either increases or decreases our chances of
success or failure. It's a risk we take.


As much as I like shortcuts, doing life longhand has its
benefits. But in giving more thought to life and risks, I began
to question if I was trying to shortcut what God was designing
longhand.


How much of your life are you trying to cut corners? Businesses
do it. Government does it. You may have even had friends do it.


Some shortcuts can be beneficial. (Look at the processed food.
But that's for another episode.) But others only complicate the
"system" for success.


What's life without a little risk?


Risk involves doing something without knowing the outcome for
sure. There's no guarantee. But we all need that guarantee! We
gravitate towards that guarantee.


So why don't we gravitate more towards God?
The K.I.S.S. ~ What's life without a little
risk?

Some would say faith is a risk. You are not guaranteed anything;
not what you pray for, not what you hope for, not what you strive
for.


However, God has given you many promises written in the book
without a title of promises or problems faced to lure you in.
It's a book of hope. A book of faith. A book of risk that
breathes eternal life.


Every story you read defines a period of time where someone faced
trials and tribulations. They didn't have the answers and took
risks to find what they were searching for with no guarantees.


The similarities in all the stories are the fact that it led them
back to their faith. Believing in what they couldn't see. Taking
a risk on God. Walking in faith.


Are you trying to live your life with book titles? Trying to take
shortcuts in order to get ahead of the game. Or maybe you're
doing it to play catch up for all the time missed while being a
mom of five children?


God doesn't play catch up! His timing is perfect. And in your
journey, you must be willing to take a risk.


Because what's life without a little risk?


SELF CHECKUP: How are you walking daily?


Are you trying to do everything by yourself, praying when
it's convenient?

Are you relying on your own strength in good and bad times?

Are you figuring out life as it comes?



OR


Are you willing to take a leap of faith, and walk-in faith?


"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be
dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and
help you; I will uphold you with my righteous
right hand." ~ Isaiah 41:10 NIV


What's life without a little risk?


This is a great reminder that you can't allow yourself to get
caught up in all the pomp and circumstance, all the roller
coaster of rides, all the promises, and guarantees. You have to
walk in faith.


It doesn't matter who wins the Super Bowl. It doesn't matter who
gets the raise first. It doesn't matter who has the bigger house.
It doesn't matter who is the healthiest.


This is your life. You are training for life. God is right there
with every step you take.


"Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right
hand. You guide me with your counsel, and
afterward, you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but
you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My
flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the
strength of my heart and my portion forever." ~
Psalm 73:23-26 NIV


What's life without a little risk?


A risk that's not spelled out for all to see, but written on your
heart for this shall be.
"Walk by faith and let God carry your risks! The load
will be lighter. The success much brighter!"
