Go for Broke

Today is "National Go For Broke Day". There have been times, I am sure, that we have all given all we had for a certain cause/concern/interest. If any of you have ever seen my wife, you know that I am not afraid to step out and go for it. She is far better than anyone I deserved, yet, she married me. Why? Because I went for it and wooed her.

Have you had dreams and desires but allowed satan's discouragement to keep you from going for broke? Is there something you feel GOD has placed in your heart but you allow doubt and fear to keep you from pursuing it? I am really talking to myself today more than anyone.

You see, I am a planner - to a FAULT. I've said before that I have a plan for everything. And, if the plan I have doesn't work, I have an alternate plan for that. I think that I have to know everything and am supposed to fix everything. Maybe what I truly need to do to "go for broke" is to allow GOD to control it and just hang on for the ride.

Today's word is a quote I came across that reminds me that I don't have to have every detail; I'm just supposed to trust GOD. It says, "The Bible never once says, 'Figure it out.' But, over and over, it says, 'Trust GOD.' He's already got it all figured out."

GOD expects me to do my part. I've mentioned before that GOD expects me to put feet to my prayers, to go out and do what I need to do. But, just maybe, sometimes, what I need to do is just TRUST, just know that GOD has this and all He needs me to do is let go and let Him handle it.

It's "National Go For Broke Day". Don't let anything stop you from doing what GOD has called you to do, especially yourself. Maybe what I really need to go for broke is to stop pushing and, in brokenness, trust.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
