"Dare To Do The Impossible"

This year I am constantly evaluating my spiritual condition. I was having an interesting conversation with someone and they brought up a subject that has been pondering thoughts within. They made a statement that they wasn't ready. When are we ready? I find that most of the time when I believe that I am ready to take on additional responsibility or an new endeavor I am not ready. I say to myself often that I am not ready because something within brings about an uncomfortable feeling or it may require surrender in areas of my life that I am not willing to let go of yet. How could this be? I should be living a life of commitment to Christ, therefore I should be ready to take on whatever He calls me to. My dependence should never be on my abilities, talents, or giftedness, but in Christ Jesus. I have failed in many areas of life because my dependence was in worldly things. I believe that over the years I have missed out on many opportunities because I refused to trust God and relied on self effort. I have taken "try" out of my vocabulary, and replaced it with "trust". God determines when I am ready today. My goal is to dare to do the impossible and that entials wherever, and whatever God has for me. The people in the bible didn't do extraordinary things because of anything special that they did humanly. They accomplish great feets because of their faith. I have failed many times in life, but that will not stop me from striving to live for Jesus, and to touch the world with his gospel. I am believing today in my heart that the best is yet to come. Some great things are happening and doors are opening; not because of me, but because I am in a place that I dare to do the impossible through Christ Jesus.
