revolving doors

Sometimes I feel that I as I go through life, that I am walking through a revolving door.

It seems like I am going around in circles.

I forget to get off the "merry go round".

Here's what I know today:  the purpose of a revolving door is to take you somewhere - but you and I must choose to go forward.

We must choose to continue our journey.

The revolving door is only there to facilitate our journey - it is not an end in itself.

Have you ever seen a small child in a revolving door? 

They love to go round and round.

But we adults know that going round and round is not the point - we need to get off and go on.

God has a purpose and a plan for your life. 

Perhaps he is speaking to you today to move on - get going - continue your journey.  Stop taking delight in the routine and ruts of your life. 

Be bold.  Be willing to risk.  Break out of that habit.  Leave behind that bondage.

Shatter the mold.  Dream Big.  Set new goals. 

And let me leave you with this:  A revolving door has to be pushed by those within it.  When we stop pushing, it will stop turning - but not until.

Just a thought for a Tuesday.
