There is a part of us that craves routine. We like
to know what’s coming next. We like to have the structure, dependability and
sense of security that comes with having some basic routines in life. This
desire is normal and there is nothing wrong with it.
And yet, the downside to the routines is that sometimes
life itself can begin to seem stale. We may come to a point at which we feel
like we are in a rut doing the same old things day in and day out. Bored.
Unchallenged.
It is important for us to be willing to follow God
out of our routines, in other words, out of our comfort zones. Remember, the
life God has for us is full and meaningful. Jesus described being alive in God’s
kingdom as an “abundant” life.
Believe me, I’m writing this post as a challenge to
myself, as well. Let’s be willing to look up and follow God on some new
adventures. He still has some wonderful, exciting, powerful, helpful and
meaningful living in store for us.
