“Stuck”…It’s a four-letter word in spirit though made up of
five. It’s so easy in life to hit moments when we you simply feel stuck. What’s
more, getting “unstuck” can feel daunting and impossible. Beyond simply
understanding that "nothing is impossible with Christ" (Luke 1:37), you must take steps
to begin to wiggle out of that stuck position. This means you have to actively
decide to unlock vision, unchain dreams and unpack the gifts that you’ve
managed to stifle inside. There’s something in your heart, a passion that may
even be accompanied by a skill set, that seems to be encased in a blanket of slumber
(and reeking of moth balls). Do you remember it is there? Do you remember what
it felt like to use that gift? Do you remember what it felt like to fly high on
your dreams and let that flight catapult you into the next phase of your life?
If you answered “no” to any of the above, perhaps it is time to rekindle your
fire. Perhaps it is time to unpack the gift and give it the air it needs to
breathe and grow wings. We’re told in Proverbs that “A man’s gift makes room
for him, and brings him before great men.” (Pr 18:16).
Begin today by telling someone about that gift and putting
it on display. Be encouraged to unpack and stay a while knowing that a room
will be made for you soon.
Blessings,
