I don’t want to miss out on any blessings that God has for me. What will I miss out on if I don’t obey God’s leading?Īnd there’s my motivation. The writer urges the reader to ask what would happen if we take a step of faith and follows that up by asking what would happen if we don’t. The devotional I read today was on moving past fear. I believe that the second part is going to win. Another part of me reasons that, since God is leading me to share, I should do it because I love Him and want to live a life of obedience to Him. A part of me thinks no one will be interested, so why bother. Maybe it all boils down to fear of being rejected. So why do I hesitate? I am processing the answer to this as I type, staring at the blinking cursor until my thoughts unravel enough to grab hold of one and follow it. But on the other hand, there are some amazing things that God has done in my life that I know would bring Him glory in the telling and would be an encouragement to those who read it. There are some aspects of my story that are difficult to tell and some that will not be shared publicly. There is a fear that no one will be interested, that my life is relatively ho-hum and nobody wants to hear about it.
I have felt led to tell my story lately and, to be honest, I’ve hesitated to do so.
It has highs and lows, humor and heartache, and watching it unfold is quite an experience. Alice, the main character, does indeed have a story to tell. These are the opening lyrics to Bright Star, one of my favorite musicals and the most recent one I was able to be in.
