THIS could make you happy....

You know what makes you really happy, friend? It makes you happy to be in the right place!

I'm currently hearing from several friends, "I want to quit my job. While I make good money, I haven't been happy in years."

Others say, "I really need to change something about my lifestyle. Since the pandemic, I've become really sluggish. Even though I could exercise again, I’ve become used to doing nothing, and that's not good for me."

And friend, all of that is true. If you're unhappy at work, you're constantly filling your heart with negatives. I'm not saying that everyone should quit their job if they aren’t completely happy with it. There is always the other wonderful option of praying for your job and your colleagues, and that changes your perspective. Maybe you are the right person to work in this place, so take time to look for wisdom.

What I am getting at is this: Maybe you are unhappy where you are because you are not where you should be in your spiritual life. Maybe you hide behind "Oh you know, it's always been this way, there's nothing I can do about it," because it scares you to take the step out of your familiar safe haven.

What if God wants to show you that you can walk on water, friend, but you won’t get out of the boat.

"See to it that you complete the ministry you have received in the Lord." (Colossians 4:17 NIV) 

friend, the question I want to ask you today to make sure you are guarding your heart in this area as well is, "Are you in the place God wants you to be? Could it be that the place is uncomfortable and you're filling your heart with negatives instead of praying for this situation and experiencing awesome things?"

Think about it. Pray about it and get out of the boat....(see Matthew 14:29 NIV) 

You are a miracle!
