Getting unstuck in this life

Getting unstuck in life is living beyond our sight, rituals, traditions, and/or what works for me but taking risk on faith as a result of god-nudges. J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potters book phenom, is right - It is our choices…that shows what we truly are, far more than our abilities. Yet, we are stuck in our rut unmoving. Unwilling to move expand, beyond the moment, the position, or placement. We find ourselves locked to what is, we are unwilling to ask for help, when we don’t know how to change, yet we wonder ‘why?’. More importantly, we find it unacceptable to change for progression, and thinking it just change for ‘process.’ Looking to expanding our intellectual database on life, that does not fit in our ‘known’ world; is difficult. The adaptation of a multiple perspective in a diversified world allows for us to forego ego, pride, and/or fear affiliations. We must stop this madness, or become victims of its demise. Yet, we  have the audacity to repeat this verse -1 Cor. 2:9 - However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” the things God has prepared for those who love him. However, this is difficult to do when you will not let go on the mindset of this is the way it always been and it works, why fix it. However, if it does not help those it was meant to help, or reach those you are trying to reach, then it does not work it is no longer relevant or revelational. The verse says, you have not conceive it in your mind, thus it is an unknown, but faith, god-nudges, and God’s word allows you to go into the unknown trusting God will reveal all in His time, not yours, and it will be bananas, phenomenal, showers of blessings, etc. For God uses all things to speak to His people, and it does not always come in the fashion, package we desire, but what gets our attention.
Getting unstuck is difficult but wholly necessary for progress, success, accomplishments, and fulfilling our destiny…So, the next time you are stuck, read these verses -  

Ps. 119:133- Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me.-  not my way, but God’s way.

Deuteronomy 31:6- Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."

Daniel 2:21-22 - “Praise be to the name of God forever and ever; wisdom and power are his. He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.  He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with him.
