faithfully and fearlessly leaping

do not be afraid.

Do y'all remember my blog post about being a difference maker??
Referencing the scripture in Luke 5 and declaring the bold promises of:

DIFFERENCE MAKER.
NEW IDENTITY AND NO FEAR.
DO NOT BE AFRAID.
YOU WILL CATCH MEN.

This morning the Lord led me to Joshua 1:9- "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go".
My family has had a significant amount of change occur this year. Although change is rarely a bad thing in the end, it isn't always easy to bear along the way. I shared with you in my "welcome back to blogging" post about several of the biggest changes I have walked into. The Lord has truly guided my every step since listening to Him and making a faithful leap to follow.

More recently, God has led me to leaping day after day. The deeper your heart is in HIS, the more obvious the answers will be when he tells you. Especially when you ask and ask and ask...just listen and follow your heart to where he is leading you. When we ask him for advice or what his desire for us is, HE ANSWERS. Don't miss what he's telling you. DO NOT BE AFRAID!

God moment: this scripture is the verse we chose to be Everett's life verse! The picture above was taken back in April before he was born. The scripture chalk board is Everett's door hanger that my amazing new friend, Olivia, wrote out for me on the board I made. The picture on the left is a baby gift that my best friend, Ruth, sent us for Everett. I hear ya, God! It's funny how things work out like that...but when I stop and remember that the God of our universe is preparing our path and placing these types of subtle hints in our lives, I'm left awestruck and thankful.

If I want to be a DIFFERENCE MAKER in this world then I must take actual steps of action. Lets work together in taking these steps together! Michael posted this yesterday and I think it follows suite very well with the point I'm trying to get across.
"A year from now you're going to wish you had started today." 

fearlessly leaping,
