I’ve been listening to a podcast called “The I’m Wired to Inspire Podcast” by Robin Nicole Kindrick and there is this one episode during the Faith Hack series, where she poses the questions:
1. What would you do if money was no object?
2. What was the defining moment of your life?
3. What would you do if you could not fail?
4. What’s keeping you from getting what you desire the most?
It’s questions like these that I never wanted to answer. Why? Because, for some reason, I’ve never been able to answer them. I’ve always gotten this constricting feeling in my throat, and I think it’s because I’ve always been sooo blocked By fear of not being enough to make it happen. It’s always been difficult for me to have dreams and visions of what I wanted my life to be. So when God tells me to tell him the desires of my heart, there has been this big question mark.
But see, he’s shown me something different. He’s shown me that with Him, huge, spectacular, impossible-to-me things are possible, like this race. Right now, I’m sitting under an awning made up of sticks and logs covered by a Katrina- blue tarp for shade… IN THE MIDDLE OF BOLIVIA, at a home with this amazing family who are on fire for Christ, and who are making neck bones with gravy and rice and fresh peas for lunch. Like, how is this even possible?? I’ve never dreamt anything like this could happen in my life.
So now, with these questions, I’m pressing through that constricting feeling, because I know at the other side of it, is something sooo amazing. I know it’s amazing, because this experience is opening up a world that my brain could never fathom, had I not let The Lord take the lead. Once I answer them, I’m going to pray on them and ask the Lord,
“How can I take these answers and make it a reality? How can I give you the most glory with this? How can I get away from anything in my life that’s keeping me from seeing the complete execution of this in excellence in my life?”
No matter what your life looks like, I encourage you to do the same.
Until next time, Adios!!
