Getting Out Of Your Comfort Zone

Imagine if everything in your life went right all the time. You got everything you wanted and everything went your way. How than will there be any room for growth? How would you know what your capable of? How will you be able to challenge yourself. Life has many challenges each and everyday that we all go through. I have recently had been dealt the hand of “unfamiliarity”. I had separated from the man who I have been with a majority of my young adulthood. To say that it didn’t affect me, would be a lie. I went through a season of ” wilderness” due to being outside my ” comfort zone”. I was comfortable in a relationship. I was comfortable having everything figured out. I was comfortable “having” someone. During that season I had noticed I began to become something I wasn’t because it showed me I didn’t know who I was. Most of us think we are strong, resilient, focused, and determined when everything is working in our favor. But who are you when opposition comes into your life. Life will always test you. Nothing will always go right. But sometimes things don’t go “right” atleast to our ” own understanding” because God is trying to take you out of your comfort zone. It is those difficult times we really find who we are, and what we are capable of. In those times we learn to preserve regardless of those obstacles that are stacked against us. Regardless of being stripped of everything that we once knew. LIFE DOESN’T STOP because of how you feel, nor does it stop when things shift in your life. In those seasons challenge yourself to keep pushing through. Sometimes you have to start from scratch and rebuild. Reflect on all the things you do have whether it be family, friends, life, or shelter. The gift of life itself is the main reason to keep going. IT SHOWS YOU HAVE A PURPOSE. Character is NEVER built in your ” comfort zone” or dealing with the familiar. It is built in those difficult times. SO KEEP PUSHING.KEEP GOING. Do things that are out of your ” comfort zone”. Embrace those seasons of the “unfamiliar” because GOD has something greater than what we know and those ” trials” are refining us for that. BE BLESSED . – IAM Diamond Flores
