STRIFE HARDER
Many times in our lives, we get to a point that we do't want see the need to actually do something better, or differently, we get comfortable not only with the environment but also with the situation. We forget the fact that there is a place that is better, higher and greater than we are now because we have been clouded with the fear of actually working just a little harder or trusting just a little bit, stretching that muscle just to get to the desired end.
Have we ever wonder the benefit in trying to do something in another way or being different from others; the devil has clouded a lot of people with the deceit that they cannot be better than where they are, giving them the mindset that that is the best they can ever be in life.
1 Timothy 1:7 says, i have given you a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control, this is saying to us that regardless of the false testimony from the devil, we are of the Lord and we need to physically step out of our comfort zone and strife harder to be someone better than what we are right now. There is no first class, middle, or lower class, but what we are is who we make ourselves to be and who we make ourselves to be is as a result of the level of work we are willing to put into being a better person.
God has put in each and every one of us all that we require to be better in life, to be greater than where we are, our responsibility therefore, is to actually get out of our comfort zone and then strife harder to be the best that God wants us to be. Life begins at the end of your comfort zone
Totally agree. Also sometimes, people are stuck in their lives not because they don't want to do better or be in a better place but because of fear of the unknown, their background and people they are with either family members, spouses or coworkers. I truly believe that in other for people to enter into their glorious destiny that is in Christian Jesus, they must totally surrender and submit their lives to Him. It's sometimes hard to do. But that's the only way out.
