Root 6: Time to Adventure!

May 14, 2014

At some point every race must begin. One must lace up the boots and set off on the trail. One must pull the car out of the driveway and say "If we don't have it now, we either don't need it or we can find it on the way."

At some point every race will end. The ending is a long-awaited moment of greatness for those who run, and a moment of great disillusionment for those who never quite get started.
Bang!
Have you heard the starting gun this season? Well, let’s get going!

Here are some things to look forward to:

Amazing worship and prayer life, personally
Increasing relational health and less pathology
Miracles and faith on behalf of a larger sphere
A sense of belonging on an eternal level

Here are some things that are behind us now:

Feeling left behind and striving to keep up
Suffering from unbelief and the failure to launch
Fear of failure and losing our reputation
Avoiding Responsibility

Let’s make a plan to succeed together as we continue on our kingdom adventure!

Take out your journal and  write your specific plan. What will you do specifically, by the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, to walk in the above-mentioned "things to look forward to?" What else?

What about the things that are behind us now? Write your plan to recognize those mindsets when they try to catch up with you and throw them off as hindrances.
