Brave

I wrote this post on Tuesday, but thought I should share anyway. :)

The drive into work today was like any other. I was doing my normal thing - drinking my coffee, listening to music, fighting the traffic, etc.  Then, a song came across Pandora that made me stop and actually listen to each and every word.  It said...

Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior

I. LOVE. THAT.  I want to live a life where my trust in God is without borders.  INFINITE.  I want to have the confidence in my heart to know that accepting this adventure will lead to great things and an even stronger faith.  I want to be brave enough to trust the path God has laid out before me, even if I think something else would be better.  Even if what I'm called to do causes me stress, fear, and anxiety.  Even if the answer is a big fat "no" to something that I've dreamed about my whole life. I want to be...FEARLESS. I want to live bravely/courageously/unapologetically. It sounds like a daunting task seeing that I'm scared of well, everything.

Basically, I feel like this all day everyday...



And I want to feel like this...
So, I will continue working on the concept of  bravery and courage; and when I get a twinge of anxiety, I will brush it off and dive headfirst into what my path has led me to. Here's to making the impossible possible in 2014!
