Live on the Edge

As a Bible quiz team, we decided one year to put this phrase "Live on the Edge" in black writing on red t-shirts because we had to sit on the edge of our seats in order to be able to jump first and have a chance to answer whatever question was asked about the two or three books of the Bible we had studied or memorized.

As believers, we always need to be ready to jump up and leave our comfort zones to do whatever God has planned and to go wherever He sends us, whether that place is next door or the other side of the world.

"By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going." ~ Hebrews 11:8

Are you where you are because God put you there or because you are too afraid to trust Him for the amazing adventure He has in store when you obey Him wholeheartedly?

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." ~ Joshua 1:9

Every believer needs to have a missionary mindset, which includes being flexible because anything can happen, making the most of every opportunity because the time is short and serving in any way possible no matter what the cost because that's why we're here.

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil." ~ Ephesians 5:15-16

Are you living on the edge?
