We Should, We Can, We Must
The process of following God to start Soul City Church has been transformational. For many years we would find ourselves in dreamy conversations wondering what it would be like to start a church – those conversations always ended with – “I wonder if we should do that?”
As the years passed the dreamy conversations moved to tangible questions like – “Did God design us with the gift mix to do this? Do we have the kind of abilities that would lend to leading what we sense God is planting in our hearts?” – those conversations always ended with – “Can we really do that?”
But when God spoke into our hearts this past year the question of “Should we do this & I think we can do this – became a resounding We MUST do this!” It was a matter of obedience – and I am so glad that it is.
This journey has caused us to hunger for more and more obedience in our lives. We don’t want to give ourselves to things that we should do which often can turn into routine and obligation… We don’t want to give ourselves to things that we can do which often can get clouded with arrogance and pride – We want to give ourselves whole heartedly to the things of God – the things we must do because it is an act of obedience.
What is something that God is lovingly asking you to do in your life that moves you from SHOULD to CAN to MUST?
