What is the biggest obstacle you face in accomplishing what God has called you to do?
For me, it’s faith – or rather, to be honest, lack of faith.
Despite all the amazing things I have seen Him do, when faced with a new challenge, I still struggle to trust Him. Some mountains seem too big, too steep, too treacherous. It’s easier to question His call, to explain why I’m not the best person for the assignment, to suggest He choose someone else who is more qualified.
But then, I remember,
You can never please God without faith, without depending on him.
Hebrews 11:6 (TLB)
I think of the exciting adventures I would have missed if I’d said no. More than that, I would have missed the lessons learned through needing to depend on Him. Most of all, I would have grieved the One who has been and is so faithful.
What mountain are you facing? How can I pray for you?
Thank you for your transparency. For me it’s things I just don’t know how to do.
That’s hard for me, too, Laura. As with all things, faith is the key.
