Radical Risk

I wanted to write of having to risk everything to gain anything.
You have to risk being rejected or hurt to discover the most intimate love.
You have to risk looking foolish, risk facing persecution to stand firm in what you believe in.

There is nothing to gain without first risking something seemingly valuable.

Currently I am risking comfort and ease in life to pray that God will provide in radical ways.

Radical is becoming a theme in this journey & it is not a coincidence.

The more I try to surrender to the plans God has laid out for me, for my mission team and for His glory in Asia in just a few short months, the more I realize just how much I need.

Encouragement
Love
Gentleness
Passion
A Seeking, Humiliated Heart
Guidance
Clarity
Financial Partners
Prayer Warriors
Patience
Hope
Courage
TRUTH
Trust
Acceptance
Vision
Support
Boldness
Ability
Surrender of Worries
Wisdom
.....
I could seriously go on and on.
I pray that I will be willing to risk absolutely everything in His name and that He will see it through.

The risk is always better than the familiar. I know risk is never in vain. Nothing is in vain, ever.

My worries have no eternal value, the souls of people I will meet, do.

Radical Risk.
