Bear one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

I've been challenged, called, commanded.

He's asking me to give of myself, unselfishly. This is so opposite of my natural desire. To surrender myself to those He's revealing. My life and my love.

I give to those who love easily in return. I'm drawn to those who do not withhold love from me. He's calling me to love without restraint. To hold those who have not been held. To heal those who are hurting.

There are no clear steps or defined momentum to this new journey. I see He's been telling me this all along, and somehow once again I see I've deterred off the path. He's reminding me of the things He's been telling me, showing me since I was a little girl.

Jesus, this is hard for me. I hesitate in even telling others because I know that it holds me accountable. But I know this is where you want me, where my purpose lies and where my adventure begins. Afraid as I am, I ask for courage.
