Philippians 1:21 (NKJV) 21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Being comfortable and staying in a place is OK, as long as we know\u00a0we are\u00a0in the\u00a0right\u00a0place.<\/p>\n

In that comfortable place there may come a time when God says, \u201cit\u2019s time to\u00a0move on”. Sometimes we might be so comfortable that we may not listen to His voice or heed His tug on our hearts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Other times, it may not be so comfortable in a place and we may\u00a0want\u00a0to move on. But God may say, \u201cstay\u201d. He\u00a0may want to use us in that\u00a0place.<\/p>\n

He has chosen us, and we must push aside our feelings and the fact that it is uncomfortable and stay, in spite\u00a0of how we feel or what is taking place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This is not easy to do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We had to stay in a place one time where we knew we were not wanted by specific people. But, God wanted us there. And in the end, after all we went through, we were chosen to lead for a season when things were very difficult.<\/p>\n

We learned a lot of things during that uncomfortable season. We learned to push back the flesh and all of its\u00a0crying, whining, kicking and screaming, and be where God could use us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Don\u2019t despise uncomfortable situations. God is in them too. And there is a lot to be learned about others and our\u00a0own selves during those times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This is all part of growing and maturing in Christ, staying where God needs us to stay, moving on when God wants us to move on,\u00a0in spite\u00a0of our own desires.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There comes a time to learn that it\u2019s not about us anymore. We live for Christ and die to ourselves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
