#saywhat

What are you supposed to do when you feel deep down in your heart that God is asking you for something that goes against everything you have going on right now?   Not that I'm being called to do anything "bad" or anything like that, but what if, I have a family at home, and God is saying GO.

I hear it so loudly.  I feel it so far down deep in my soul.  GO.  Just GO.

I can't, God.  I have a husband and two teenage boys.  I can't GO.  But I feel that there is something you are calling me for that I can't fathom right now.

I know what it is...that is why you have to GO.  Get away from those things that keep you distracted from me.  Put aside those things that are comfortable and normal and GO.  Put your trust in me.  Understand that I will take care of everything you leave behind.  Be obedient to me NOW and you will see my plan LATER.

God, that just doesn't make sense to me.  I have a job.  I have responsibilities.  I can't just leave.

Remember my disciples?  They left their nets.  They left their families.  The left all that they knew to follow me.  You know the rest of that story....

But that was 2000 years ago?  That doesn't apply to me. Where do you want me to GO?  Should I get in the car and drive....Jesus take the wheel?

Its not about the destination....it is about the obedience.  Trust me and you will know...

That is what I am struggling with right now....
