On the Move...

God has been showing up and showing off in a big way this summer. The big question is, and somewhat the theme of all that's been happening...how bad do we want it? What are we willing to do to make sure we're in a position to be used by God & to move with God?

There's been a lot of perspective gained. A lot of brokenness experienced. A lot of things are being stirred up. A lot of big dreams are being dreamed. A lot of goals have been set. But the big question is, "How bad do we want it?"

When life starts to get crazy, when school or work pick back up, when we're too tired, too stressed, too busy...how bad to we want it? When we're not around people who are on fire for Christ, when we're not around people who are seeking & passionate about the same things we are, when we're not around people who are trying to keep God as their top priority...how bad do we want it? When we're being looked at like we're crazy, when we're the only one who would be taking a stand for Christ, when we may be faced with "persecution" for our faith...how bad do we want it? When we're by ourselves, when we're surrounded with family or friends, when we're surrounded by complete strangers...how bad do we want it?

If you wanna be used by God...you've gotta want it!
It's one thing to say it, it's another thing to show it...are you in a position to be used by God?
