Courage is Uncomfortable

As we set out on this Big Walk I had many preconceived ideas about what it would look like. I anticipated adventure, growth and a closeness to nature and one another that would take our walk with God and with each another to new levels. I underestimated the physical difficulties of this challenge and the elements of pushing forward that drives us to want to achieve something more, that goals mentality that precedes simply wanting to grow.

I have learnt that I am not that great at walking on sand, however I am still here in the shadows somewhere pushing through and at the end of the day I lay down in the same tent next to the man who is physically stronger than I am, breathing the same air and living within the reality of the same dream.

Courage has been uncomfortable, it’s been walking on the unknown pathways and facing the questions we have about ourselves and our life. It’s been facing failures, the ones in our past and the ones that feel like they are just over the hill in our future, the ones yet to come that haunt us, dangling their tentacles right there, like a smokescreen of doubts floating in the air of our dreams.

Courage is the ability to do something that frightens one … I have not been frightened by the walk as such but just by putting time and effort into something that becomes nothing at all. I have been frightened by the thought of wasted energy and time, by failure I guess, by not being something that matters. I have been frightened by my life having no meaning and no purpose at all.

So courage is a catalyst to not worrying about what anyone thinks, not listening to the haters, to the imaginary voices telling us we are crazy to think we can live outside the norm. Courage is embracing our truth, Him who is truth, Him who created us for more. Truth is a person and my truth is found in The Truth, who is Him.

This Mystical Pathway that we are on always has more questions. The depths of which this walk is only skimming the surface….

As we rest and recover before we begin again let’s press into the more…

Phil 3:13

I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.

I’ve gone so far out that I can’t go back.. Beep Beep
