Step out of your comfort zone!

Oxford Dictionary defines ‘Comfort Zone’ as ‘A place or situation where one feels safe or at ease and without stress.’

Yes we all love that safe, easy and stress-free feeling don't we?!

However, no one ever cultivated their abilities, reached their potential or realized their dreams by staying in their comfort zone. There is nothing fruitful about it! You have to challenge yourself and grow to become all that you can be! All of the most successful, influential, and powerful people in the course of history, are the ones who were bold enough to challenge themselves. Those people are the ones who have faced their worst fears, who have tried persistently, who have passed through countless trials, who have failed so many times but have picked themselves back up many times more and triumphed.

These are the ones we admire today, the ones who inspire us and make us wonder how they reached there.

But surely they have once been in our place they just chose not to stay there! So, step out of your Comfort Zone and be all that you can be!

You are never alone!!!

…As I was looking at some pictures I took a while back, during the time I traveled to the Northern Parts of Ethiopia, I observed that there was a picture of a tree standing solitary in the middle of the vast grass plains. And I said to myself ‘Isn’t it amazing how even though this tree seems isolated and unattended, that it is never out of God’s sight and reach?’ He watches over it, feeds it and grows it. This single tree that is standing alone in the middle of no where, in which no body pays attention to; But God looks after it and knows that it exists somewhere in the middle of nowhere.

Have you ever felt lonely, lost, weak and invisible in this overwhelming world? Have you ever felt as if nobody is there for you, nobody listens, as if you are all alone, as if no one cares that you exist at all? At some point in our life we all feel or have felt this way! But there is one thing that you should always remember; God is always there for you, no matter what! No matter where you are or what situation you are in.

He even feels concern about the little shrub that grows in the wilderness; he even takes care of that single tree standing alone in the middle of the vast grass plains. Imagine how much more he cares for, provides and watches over, you and I. Therefore, no matter how invisible, small and helpless you feel in this world, just know that God is always there for you… always by your side, always uplifting you and always taking care of you! May the Lord’s name be blessed!!!!!!!!!
