Sometimes life goes well and we kind of get stuck on autopilot.
We don't really progress, we just enjoy our time in the sun.
The Lord has a way of challenging us though, taking us from a relaxing life of lounging on the beach and invites us to be more.
It may not be fun to pull our feet out of the sand, but if we're to become who the Lord wants us to be, we need to leave the beach.
