Day 16: Live Dead Journal Challenge - Mobility

It's funny how sometimes (ok almost always) life turns out just a little bit different than we imagined in our own plans. Today's challenge was to think about be prepared to be mobile, the gospel is mobile and we must be ready to follow and obey at a moment's notice. We've been talking a lot lately about obedience, surrender, timing, transition, etc...and that takes trust. It takes us surrendering our dreams and aspirations for His and in that we find a goodness deeper than we ever imagined. We become grateful because our "revised" version of life is richer, sweeter and more satisfying than our original plans. Our hearts move from being willful to being willing. Today's time in reflection was taught by Rosemarie Hanson whose family serves long term in Kenya.

My response to being mobile is to think about what I can do practically to be able to move and do anything God speaks at any given moment. What comforts, "necessities" and ties must I cut to be able to afford this level of obedience.
