That is the question that continues to come to mind as I contemplate the life that lies ahead. Not because I am reluctent to go in any way, in face it is quite the opposite. I can hardly wait to pack it up and head out. The planning is always the hardest part. I am wanna go and get started. But the question is not do I want to go, but am I prepared for what lies ahead. Am I ready to take a stand? Am I ready to fall? Am I ready to humble myself and take a few risks? Am I ready to put my life in the hands of my God, my Savior? Am I ready to see suffering beyond my comprehension? Am I ready to be challanged like I never have before? Am I ready to be broken? Am I ready to be brought to my knees? Am I ready to be so low I have to be picked up by the hands of my Father? Am I ready to see His purpose for my life? Am I ready to live it? Am I ready to go beyond the comfortable, feel good faith I know at home? Am I ready to sacrafice? Am I ready to lay down my life, so that I can find true life in Christ?

Praise be to God, that He is faithful to push me beyond my self-imposed boundaries. Praise be to God, that He will make me ready.
