ou want to move forward and take action... but a little voice lurks with its nervy question:
Confidence to do what you're supposed to do REALLY, REALLY well.
Authority to speak your voice without apology
Fearlessness to keep going no matter who accepts or reject you.
Why? Because you have been SENT!
I truly believe that the best thing the Church can do is to do exactly Jesus did... SEND PEOPLE. Give them their authority. Give them their confidence. Give them their fearlessness. Help them find their mission.... Sent One.
Sadly, many churches don't see this as a key function of the Church. (Some are starting to! Here's an example: http://www.christianitytoday.com/le/2014/february/power-to-people.html
But whether any organized Church ever does, could you still seek, discover and fully accept your identity as "one who is sent?"
Are you open/available/willing to be SENT?
This might just change everything! It sure did for Jesus... the disciples... the apostles... and many, any awesome people throughout history.... YOU TOO
