The Voice of Adventure
The Lord is my light and my
salvation; whom shall I fear?
Psalm
27:1
Jesus says the options are clear.
On one side there is the voice of safety. You can build a fire in the
hearth, stay inside, and stay warm and dry for what you don't try, right?
You can't fall if you don't take a stand, right? You can't lose your
balance if you never climb, right? So don't try it. Take the
safe route.
Or you can hear the voice of
adventure--God's adventure. Instead of building a fire in your hearth,
build a fire in your heart. Follow God's impulses. Adopt the
child. Move overseas. Teach the class. Change careers.
Run for office. Make a difference. Sure it isn't safe, but what
is?
