Where is your lion?

Where is your lion?
Our ConnectGroup from church just finished up Mark Batterson's "In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day".  The book helped generate a lot of good discussion, and I have to say, we all didn't agree with the author all the time.  He closed out the book with this line of  thinking.  God has something big in store for all of us.  We may know exactly what that is, and just be scared to pursue it, because it seems too big.  It will be too big for us, but it won't be too big for God.  Chase that lion into the pit and slay it.   God doesn't guarantee that everything will work out every time just like we think it will, but it does work out according to His plan.  A failure could teach us what God wanted us to learn.  

But what if we just don't have any idea what lion we are supposed to be chasing?  If you don't know what it is, it probably isn't because you need more knowledge or more training, it's probably because you need to know Him more.  I challenge you to pray three times per day that God will reveal His plans for you.  Use your watch or your phone to set a reminder if you need to.  You might be surprised by what you hear when you take a minute to listen.
