Trying New Things

Over the last week I have been pondering this urge I have to try new things. Part of me wonders what it would be like to go back to school...part of me wonders about other new adventures that I am currently involved in or that I have heard about recently. I wonder if in my quest to try new things I am actually distracting myself from God. I mentioned in my last post that even though I am stepping outside my comfort zone, there is still an uneasiness about me. That uneasiness I haven't quite figured out yet...except that I'm sure a large part of it has to do with my relationship with God. I know that it's not where it should be, yet...

However, I have wondered too if that uneasiness is a need to try new things. So is it only my desire to create distraction from my relationship with God or is it truly justified and something I should pursue?

Luci Swindoll says "Just say YES!". We tend to reason our way into living a life of safety. Say YES to experiencing life. Say YES to trying something new, meeting new people, deepening your knowledge about the world and life. It's usually those crazy things that you said "yes" to that make your life interesting and fun. It's also those crazy things that give you memories that last forever. This will not bring you further from God - it will help you discover him!
