Taking the next step.

When children start moving about it's interesting to observe how fast they pick up walking. Some tend to get the hang of it fairly quickly, while others are content with "scooting" across the floor dragging their little hips in a diaper. LOL!!! I can remember my oldest son "scooting" when were trying to teach him to walk. It was absoloutely hilarious to watch his little but sliding across the floor. Now that i look back on it. Wouldn't it be good if he could understand that he could get a lot further and exert a lot less energy, if he could just walk?...Hmmm. It makes me think about my own life. Sometimes I can "spin my wheels" as they say by not taking the next step in life. I and several of the friends i have sometimes struggle with procrastination. Ohh yeah! You know it dont you? Why put off today what you can put off tomorrow??..LMBO! Taking the next step in life is not always comfortable neither is it easy. But it sure is needful if we want to achieve a level of living that we've not experienced. Challenging yourself can be tough, especially when you've had enough outside challenges in life itself. But it is necessary to take the next step in our lives to be all that we were created to be. I've begun to learn things about myself on this journey that i never knew. I have fears, doubts, highs and lows. But such is life and all we have is the next step. So onward we push not knowing what the future holds, but ulitmately who holds the future. If God be for us who can be against us?? Well the truth is, there may be many people or things against us. But the only real threat to taking our next step is the 3 1/2 pounds of matter between our ears.  You and i own the next step. We create the next step with each decision that we make. No matter how it looks now, the next step carries us to a place that is better than the last. Do you believe it? Remember! As a man thinketh so is he. Let's all take the next step inspite of the unknown and accomplish things we never thought we could! Sodas down! Waters up! Peace and Love!
