A formidable share, I just given this onto a colleague who was doing a little bit evaluation on this. And he in actual fact purchased me breakfast because I found it for him.. smile. So let me reword that: Thnx for the deal with! However yeah Thnkx for spending the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love reading more on this topic. If potential, as you develop into experience, would you mind updating your weblog with more particulars? It’s highly useful for me. Big thumb up for this blog put up!

I held my breath the whole time I read this, change scares me too. Somedays I welcome it and the closeness to God that comes with it, but most of the time I fight against it. God bless

Sadly, most everything about our “Christian” lifestyle is SAFE. Even the way we encapsulate ourselves often with other “Christian” friends in pretty, architectural feats that we label “church.” A lot of people are drawn to this religion (and yes, I use that word purposefully) because it seems to be safe and comfortable. The reality is that the kind of life that Jesus sought to bring us is so revolutionary and so UN-comfortable that many were not able to do it. They weren’t able to move from their comfort zone in order to participate in the kingdom. So they missed out.
In so many ways I believe we have sanitized and muted a gospel that actually calls us to be revolutionary and irrational.

But that’s just me…

The only way to see the world as a Christian is through those same lenses my sis. It is truly the only way to fly once you’ve taken the step in. Go deep, it only gets better from here! Trusting the One who has it all figured out is breathtaking and safer than anything this world has to offer us. Even prepackaged Christianity. Let’s go Deeper! Let’s ride the wave of faith! Just wait for the next adventure. There is always one out there to ride! <3

Scary.Fearful.Nervous are a few words that describe the “Surrender All” prayer. …. Some day’s are easier than other’s. I believe it is a daily dying out of your self. It’s tough stuff, this prayer.

…… I stumble on the same.exact.speed bump every.single.time.I stumble……”Dear God, you can have every facet of my heart, my life, but..I am not O.k w/ being single forever and not having children.” ….this is where I am, today.

Love that prayer…praying it right there with you and excited and expectant for God to do BIG things! Definitely a “brave” prayer that requires so much “letting go” and “laying down.”

I know exactly where you’re coming from. Since moving (which was a huge step!) to be w/ my husband, I haven’t found a new… lot of things.
I think it’s time I join you in that prayer.

Uh oh – I am too afraid to be wrecked, but I admire you so much and look forward to hearing about the journey. You are one cool chick, Sarah!

Uh oh, Sarah Markley. You are in for the ride of your life. Praying that prayer is equally peaceful and tumultuous.

Love you right back.

Yes! I am! One of my best friends and I have been talking about this lately and we’ve decided to challenge each other to take more risks, to see how God would use us when we get out of the way, to step outside of comfort and see things differently! It’s gonna be fun!
