Comfort Zone

I have a comfort zone. An ever growing one, thanks to my Jesus. I’m not saying that as a bad thing, I’m loving how God is stretching, molding, breaking, and using me. I don't always enjoy it though, but I look back now and see why it was necessary.  It seams to me, like my comfort zone is something He’s always finding ways to stretch. Weather it be talking to some complete stranger or being made a leader of something that looks scary. 
Comfort zones come in all different shapes and sizes. Something I've been learning is to not mistake being uncomfortable or scarred, for being God saying, “No, this isn't in my perfect plan for you.” This is where A LOT of prayer is a very good thing. God a lot of time  gives me a burden for something that I’m really scarred of and uncomfortable with. It’s one of His ways of teaching me to trust fully in Him instead of myself. [Proverbs 3:5-6] “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”  We really shouldn't have a comfort zone with God because He’ll always be stretching it. 
Missions that God has given me is an amazing journey just waiting to be carried out. This journey is sometimes hard and uncomfortable, but with my Jesus by my side, I’ll find peace in Him every time. I will fall, I’ll fail, I’ll be angry, sad, but His love isn't conditioned on how we perform.
Every time I fall my Jesus is already there ready to set me on my feet again. His love is endless, abounding, FREE. I could never earn the love my Jesus has for me. This reminds me of an old hymn that I really love the lyrics to. 

Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus,

Vast unmeasured, boundless, free!

Rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me!

Underneath me, all around me, is the current

Of Thy love

Leading onward, leading homeward to

Thy glorious rest above!

Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus,

Spread His praise from shore to shore!

How He loveth, ever loveth, changeth

never, nevermore!

How He watches o'er His loved ones,

died to call them all His own

how for them He intercedeth, watcheth

o'er them from the throne!

Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus,

'Tis a heav'n of heav'ns to me

And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!

Let go of yourself. Hold on to God.
