I don’t know why that is so indicative of me, but I push hard. \u00a0That is the sign in the window at the cleaners Igo to in Corbin. \u00a0Their door sticks in hot weather and you have to push hard to get it open! \u00a0I love to joke with Joe the owner about that sign! \u00a0I think in life, many times you have to push hard. \u00a0There is a difference in pushing hard after you get God’s go ahead, and just pushing in every direction, without a thought of the consequences!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

God wants us to trust Him, and listen for His voice, but when the time comes to do His will, I know He wants us to do it with everything we have, which still will \u00a0never be enough, but if it is His will, \u00a0He will make up the difference! \u00a0I’ve often asked myself why I’m so driven to share His love, and to reach the lost!? \u00a0It is clear that He inspires us to be driven for Him. I harken back to the great line from the film What If;<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“Life comes down to just two things; God loves you, so love others, and God sacrificed everything to be with you, so, sacrifice everything!!!”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yes, it is just that simple, and that hard, but with His strength, we can do all things!<\/p>\n
