New Beginnings

If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.
-Author Unknown 

Changes are always difficult. It's so much easier to just keep doing what we've always done. Why? Think of it like stepping outside and walking down the sidewalk to get your mail in just your underwear. We feel so vulnerable! We would rather do what we know we are good at and what feels comfortable to us. But where does this lead us? It leads us into a routine lifestyle where we end up only taking in breaths of the stale air in which we are familiar with. It leaves no room for fresh air to showcase our true colors in a world where God placed us for a purpose !

This is the place I'm at right now in life. Starting a new career is a scary thought for me. I will be the first one to admit that I am okay with routine in my life. It's comfortable, safe, and it's what I know. 
However, I will also tell you that once I get out of my safety boat and jump into the dark waters full of risk I usually end up happier than when I was in my boat. 

Here's the beauty in it, we have nothing to lose! 
Except for maybe a few miserable people in our previous journey that were only holding us back and who needs them anyways!?
We get a fresh start, an open door, a new beginning!

Hebrews 13:5 - Keep your eyes on Him, and He will never leave you nor forsake you
