Why is it so hard to answere your call or Walk in your calling.
I know alote of people don't even know what there calling is but once God reveal what your calling is.....Why does some people have a hard time walking in there calling, and keep from running from God.......just wondering what your thoughts are on this topic

Good questions... Some answers in no particular order are 1) Fear 2) The level to which their will is still exalted above the will of God ( which is idolatry_ 3) Their heart is not completely sold out to God 4) Ignorance about the call 5) Rebellion 6) Stubborness 7) Not willing to pay the price to reap the reward 8( Doesnt see the call of God as a reward in the first place 9) Would rather DO ME first and then possibly get around to GOD's thing later if I feel like it. 10) Selfishness 11) lack of Love 12) Doesnt understand the big picture.... 13) Havent died to self yet in the measure necessary to walk in God's will 14) listening more to the lies of self. flesh and the devil about the call. and the list can keep on going but thats a start My question is are you talking about other people or yourself  |

Wow Thank you for the List Giant, There are several things on that list I struggled with myself....IT is a Struggle but It is imperitive that we find out who we are in Christ and the Purpose He has set before us. Once we do acccept are calling then God can use and We can be effective in the Body of Christ..............The Safest Place is in the will of God

A word of wisdom I heard from a man of God.
There is NO grace in the pressure of unfulfillment.
There is MUCH grace in the pressure of fulfillment.
Bottom line.. there is going to be pressure. You either face the pressure with the grace of God doing His will or you face the pressure WITHOUT the grace of God doing your own...
Its really that simple.
