God isn't looking for bench warmers. He's looking for warriors.

You want to know if God is awesome? He is.

I was at a Chris and Conrad/BarlowGirl concert last night and God did something amazing. BarlowGirl's whole message is that we are chosen, God has a purpose on our life. We need to chase after it with all of our heart. At the end of the concert they had a prayer time. There were about 7-10 people there to pray with anyone who wanted or needed it. Alyssa said something that hit me. We're supposed to be leaders and what better way to start than stepping out in a prayer line? I knew it in my heart, but I couldn't make my legs move over there. So instead I prayed. I asked God to do something. Break me, water my heart so it wasn't so dry - show me something. Well... you know what He did? He put it on the heart of one of the prayer line "staffers" to come and talk to me. He didn't say anything new, but it was exactly what I needed to hear. Kind of like "confirmation" from God that I have a bigger purpose than just standing in the back of the crowd taking pictures.

I've always had a desire to do something bigger. I want to step out and make a difference for God but I'm just stuck in the back. I let the devil take over by filling my heart with fear. I want to have a love for God so great that when people look at me they'll want that too.

I don't know where I need to start exactly, but I know that God is working. So now I think I will just continue to press in - maybe a little harder this time - and see what He does next.
