Living at the Edge of Faith

Living at the Edge of Faith

Daily Success Motivation and Positive Thinking


Are leaning and living more towards risk or comfort. Our comforts zone cause us to shrink back from the adventure beyond the comfort barrier. We are all built for achievement. It is unescapable. Now matter how comfortable we become we always tend to feel that pull to venture out and discover something magnificent or take on adventure and discovery.

Comfort can be a source of silent failure when we choose to remain safe and instead of risking open and public failure. We see failure as bad when it is only and opinion of and event.

We must choose to leave our comfort zones and take risks! Don't you know that life is inherently risky no matter what you do? There are no guarantees. Playing is safe only guarantees and higher chance of you not reaching your potential.

Living at the edge of faith means that you are willing to take the risk and leap out into your greatness. Sure it can be scary and it will be scary but that is where your greatness comes forth. When you accept the challenges and trouble of going for the big dream you enlarge your capacity to receive that dream. You transform into person it takes to achieve that dream. That is why the journey is so important. There should never be "a means to an end" approach.

Never do anything just because it's expedient. Do the right thing and do the right things the right way. We have to avoid messages that provide us comfort and keep us locked down with and attitude of safety. That is unhealthy and selfish.

When you lean towards risk you are strengthening your character to carry you from joy to joy and dream to dream. You are willing to dare and challenge yourself and your world. When you lean towards risk you place a demand on your own potential to come through for you. When you lean towards risk you live and the edge of faith and put yourself in the hands of God to take care of you.

Life can be stormy. Yes it can and will be. It can be rough out here but the saying that "nothing ventured then nothing gained" is so true. You have a responsibility to respond to life with courage and faith and action. You aren't here live safe. You are here to live big and change the lives of others. You must respond to your greatness. It calls and beckons you to step out and grow.

Are you where you need to be? Are you where you think you should be? What work is going undone because you have chosen comfort over risk? Do you feel that sense of greatness and adventure that nags you and causes you to be unhappy because you know you can do better with your life?

You are great and your greatness needs to be relapses. What do you believe in? What matters most to you? There is way more satisfaction in life for those willing to live by faith and not by comfort. There comes a time in our lives where we have to say "No More!". I'm not going to live small anymore. You have to decide to seize your day! You just have to go for it.

Faith will get you there when you everything else says you can't get there. You are larger than your circumstance. You are not stuck and you can change.

Get mobilized and get going. Embrace risk and manage fear by exercising courage. Dare to be great and live your life at the edge of faith. Joy unspeakable and success and peace awaits you.
