Living a Better Storyಮಾದರಿ

Take risks.

In order to live exciting, adventurous lives, we need to take risks. Now I’m not talking about mindless risk-taking like jumping off a bridge attached to an oversized rubber band (I’m talking about bungee jumping in case you didn’t pick up on that). I’m talking about taking godly risks — risks that will change your life and others for the better.

In the passage you just read, these guys took a huge risk — a huge, godly risk. They left the lives that they knew, that they were comfortable with. A couple of those guys even left their dad behind. But they left all that they knew and all that they had to follow Jesus.

What a risk. I’m sure they were saying to themselves: Am I making the right decision? What will life have in store? Is this going to be worth it? You’d better know what you’re doing, Jesus!

To live a great story, we need to take godly risks. We need to venture out into the unknown and trust God that He has a plan and purpose for our lives.

So what would it look like for you to step out of your comfort zone? What godly risks do you need to take?

I challenge you to listen to God and see where He is asking you to trust Him, follow Him, and take that big risk.

I promise you, once you start taking godly risks, your life will never be the same!
