The ZONE

“Do not ask God to guide your footsteps…If you are not willing to move your feet.” (author unknown)

Wow this really hit me last night.

I suspect many of us live in that “comfort zone”, Nurses are notorious for it. I decided last night to step outside of that zone with a simple phone call to check on a friend. No response..

But that’s OK. The point is I did it. I took a deep breath and dialed the numbers. I didn’t leave a message. I hung up after no answer and then exhaled.

My point is that if we do not decide to step out of the zone with baby steps of course, how will we ever move forward? It’s tough. But I think maybe it really is just that simple..you have to move your feet forward in order to follow a guided path.

Would I make that phone call again? Not sure. But I stepped outside “The ZONE” and just knowing I did is enough for me.

Today I will ask God to guide my footsteps because I am willing to move my feet. Granted they may be “baby steps” but they are still a step forward.
