True Grit // Surrender Into Confidence And FreedomBài mẫu

## Ready to Go? Let’s Go. When we follow Him, God will—sooner or later—ask us to do something we don’t want to do, to go someplace we don’t want to go. Maybe his “ask” will come through a nudge or as a thought in prayer. Maybe it will come as a prompt while reading Scripture. Maybe through the encouraging or challenging words of a friend. However it comes, it will come. After visiting Ephesus and Macedonia, the Apostle Paul got an “ask” from God the Holy Spirit to go on to Jerusalem (Acts 19:21). The Spirit warned him, however, if he went there, he’d be arrested. Paul’s friends begged him not to go. Paul answered: “What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus” (Acts 21:13). For us to become the men we were created to become , for us to become the men the world needs us to become , we must act with the same boldness and confidence. Paul was bold and confident because he trusted two things: God’s in charge and God’s good . We must trust those too. For they allow us, like Paul, to trust one thing more: our affirmative answers to God’s “asks” are ultimately good for us, good for others, and good for God’s Kingdom . . . and will very likely become the proudest moments of our lives. Indeed, these “asks” lead us into the very adventures for which we were created. ### Okay, so what do we do? What do you feel God might be asking of you right now? Is there anything you just know he’s  prompting you quietly to do? If so, resolve to trust him. And today take a practical and measurable step—bold and confident—toward that thing.
