God is challenging me like crazy these days.  He’s challenging me in just about every area of my life.  He’s calling me to a higher standard across the board.  He’s directing me to change things like how I spend my time, where I focus my energies, and how I lead.  The list goes on and on.  It’s like He’s trying to create a new me.  I’m reminded of this quote…

“I know God will not give me anything I can’t handle. I just wish that He didn’t trust me so much.”  – Mother Teresa

Seriously though, I’m glad He’s stretching me.  It’s not always pleasant at the time but the only thing worse than being stretched is staying the same and that’s one thing I know that I don’t want to do.
