The one with the courage

I am standing on the edge of a cliff, looking down into darkness...the unknown. God is asking me to step out!  I am so afraid!  I know He will be there, He is there now...guiding and directing my steps.  But I am afraid none the less.  Life changing things are coming and I know they are right and good...but "what ifs" and unknowns still haunt me...

what if we make the wrong decisions, what if we can't handle all this...I am already weary.  I love my life and my kids and all the things I believe are God's calling and direction on my life, but I am tired.  I need rest...rest in Him...deep breaths...

so here I stand on the cliff, and God says jump...am I ready?  can I handle it?  is it too much, too hard, too...crazy?

I am praying...crying out for clear answers...they are coming... but I still feel afraid...

maybe that's ok.  if I could do this on my own, with my own strength and understanding...well, it wouldn't be trust and love and sacrifice worthy of our Lord. if I could do it on my own, I wouldn't need Him...and He wants me to need Him...

so I trust and pray and love.....
