When we find ourselves outside our “Comfort Zone” we get a little nervous. There is nothing wrong with being comfortable with our homes, our automobile or our financial standing.
But as a believer, we should never be satisfied with our spiritual progress or reaching a place where we are totally satisfied with our witness to a lost and dying world.
If any Christian had ever reached a place where he could be satisfied with his spiritual progress, it was the Apostle Paul. Yet, he remained unsatisfied and always reached for more – Phil. 3:12-14.
Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
God has called each of us and gifted us in wonderful ways, 1 Cor. 12:7-26.
He has given us the means whereby we can stand out from the crowd and be different for His glory, because the Lord has done a work in our hearts and lives.
He can take us like He finds us and transform us into what He wants us to be.
Dedicate your life to Jesus, even if it moves you out of your comfort zone.
