If you could do something significant and not fail, what would you do? What is something that concerns you–that gnaws at the back of your head–that you could change if you could?
Sarah Bowling, How to Keep Your Faith in an Upside-down World
This statement provokes me. It inspires me to give careful thought to my priorities and my passions. Our lives will be revolutionized when we are willing to risk for the sake of our dreams, and for the sake of God’s purposes. We can’t hold back, we must be “all in” if we are to really make a difference…and live truly meaningful lives. To me, this means moving beyond platitudes and cliches, pushing past preconceived limitations and my own personal insecurities. I am blessed to have a job that challenges me, draws on my natural gifts and interests, and is meaningful. However, that doesn’t mean that I don’t have other dreams and visions “gnawing at the back of my head.” Those are the thoughts I mustn’t ignore, the hopes and dreams that deserve my attention.
So, what would you attempt…or change…if you could?
