What are you most proud of in life?
A powerful, clarifying question, don't you think?
I pondered it for a few days, and finally reached a conclusion. A surprising conclusion: The list was not important...but what each item on that list had in common was important.
Each item in my life that would make that list--each of them--was something which was simply a "Yes," to God's call. There is not one thing on my very short list (which shall remain private) that wasn't simply me saying, "yes," when God said, "Go," or, "Do this." Usually, in the face of great personal fear.
Every. single. item. of which I could be proud was simply an act of obedience to God's call.
Makes me glad I can hear His voice.
Kinda makes me want to say yes more often. :-)
Blessed to be led by Him who knows no bounds,
