is that in a world of so much suffering, and hurt, and need,
that God will not leave us opening jam jars,
but that He will rescue us from all things petty,
rescue us from all things of fear,
and lead us with courage into a world that's
yearning to know the goodness of God
through us.
-- Gary Haugen
I have been so challenged by this question -- for what purpose did God bless me with so much abundance? Surely it is not for me to sit comfortably and build my own kingdom. With all the power of Matthew 28:18-20 and all the peace of John 16:33, is His greatest purpose for me to be safe?
Or is it to be brave?
I cannot be both.
