What if God turned round to you today and was like ‘Hey you, ever read Matthew 19:21? Yeah? Go on then. Let go of everything, leave home, and I’ll take it from there’? We don’t reckon there’d be anyone out there that would find that an easy task. But that’s almost exactly what God asked Abraham to do (Obviously without the Matthew reference. Chronology and all that…). God said ‘Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father’s family, and go to the land that I will show you’ (Genesis 12:1 NLT), and Abraham did. Note, God didn’t say ‘go to the land I’ve *already* shown you’, or even ‘the land I’m showing you now’. He said ‘the land that I will show you’. Will. As in, haven’t already. As in, walk out in blind faith, with no idea of where you’re going. Gulp. There’s a ton to learn in that. Imagine if we were more willing to live like Abraham. We’d say that getting our hearts into a place where we can make any change that God asks, because we trust Him wholly, would be brilliant. That’s the sort of life that could hear Matthew 19:21, and do it. Now, you don’t need to chuck everything into a rucksack and head out. That’s not what we’re saying. You just need to be willing to hear the need for change, any change, and make the choice to trust God enough to take the first step. Come back to us tomorrow for some more specific advice on that.

What Now?
Ask God to point out something you could do without, and a person to give it to. Then do it. Start letting Him direct you daily.
