Adventure
I’m a firm believer that God is constantly looking for friends to join his adventure. I don’t believe that He is up there in heaven, sitting on a huge throne, giving out orders without so much as a glance. He is intricately involved in and inspired by the details of our lives, and has fantastic plans for each of us.
Many of us are locked into a list of things that we believe we need in life, and we won’t and don’t consider anything outside of that list until our own tasks are accomplished. Reaching a certain level at work, a certain number of children, a certain amount of savings, etc - these things can consume years of our existence.
But what if God is waiting, excited, longing for you to look up and see that there is a life of adventure waiting? A life, filled by challenges, where you can truly see him at work each day?
I am convinced that God has tailor-made us for a unique adventure. The challenge today is to identity the reason for the position we’re in. If we are working towards our own definition of what we need and cannot move outside of that, then we have missed the point. We have succumbed to the grind of chasing an earthly safety net, but are missing our calling and destiny.
It is valid to seek to meet earthly needs, but we can forget one thing: God doesn’t invite us on an adventure and then abandon us. He intends to provide for his children, in exactly the same way we hope we can provide for ours, except he’s able to do it in abundance! We can be tempted to settle for our own provision for ourselves, instead of giving God a chance to provide far and beyond what we can even hope for.
If we have a job that we know is serving God’s purposes first, even if indirectly, and have passion and vision for why we do what we do each day, then we are on track. That is the adventure. We aren’t supposed to live the largest portion of our lives slogging away for someone else, we are supposed to live for our heavenly master, partnering uniquely on a tailor-made journey through this life, for the Kingdom’s sake!
There are seasons where we are supposed to serve someone else’s vision. Our call might be to be ‘under’ someone else for a time, where it’s not our dreams that we’re living, but theirs that we’re serving. But even then, this is a calling that we can ‘own’, like an Elisha, a Jonathan, or a Timothy.
Take some time today to analyse the reasons for your position, and see if there are any adjustments that need to take place.
