I am reading a book called, “Chazown.” It talks about finding the vision that God has called you to and put before you, but you have to discover it. I am really enjoying it so far. Here is the trouble though, I am not sure that I am clear on my vision. I thought I was, but I think that God wants to narrow it down, or maybe broaden it. I am seriously passionate about the church. I want to help local churches become more relevant to the world we live in, to the communities they are trying to reach, and to a new generation of forward thinkers. Seems pretty clear, right? But, how? In my previous post I wrote about God speaking to me, “Release yourself, and I will release you.” I think that it very much applies to me learning more about how to worship Him without constraint. And I am excited to do just that. But as I write this now I wonder how this can apply to the vision God has for me. Could it be that I am still holding Him back? I know I am on the right track, but is it really bigger than this? I want it to be, and yet do I?
So here is the thought, I believe whole heartedly in the mission and vision of the church I am currently a part of, I feel that we have gotten it right. I know that we are striving after the very things that I think the local church should be going for. So does God’s vision for me build out of this model that I get to help shape? And if so, how do we explode this beyond all comprehension the way that I know God can?
Man, soul searching is fun! God take control.
