Do you harbor yourself safely, seldom taking the chance or coming close to something risky on purpose? Sylvester Stallone succinctly says, “Take the risk or lose the chance.” A pastor recently told me of an even more significant metaphor: If you stay in the box of safety too long, it becomes a coffin. God does not want us to play life safe. It can be more dangerous than the alternative. If God has told you to do something, He will help you achieve it. Let Him erase your doubts. Let Him shoulder your fears. By accepting God’s protection more freely, you can better understand how He will care for you. At that moment, anxiety will evaporate, and you can take action boldly and confidently. It’s even more dangerous to disregard God’s voice when He tells us to do something. The risk of waving off God never overrides the perceived risk of taking the chance. Whether taking the risk God tells us to take is protecting us or the risk is for the benefit of others, remember, God has us. There is no mistake-making with God. Take the risk or lose the chance!
