Lessons from Courageous the Movie

What are you willing for God to do in your life?

It seems that God is always willing to intervene in our lives but that perhaps we shut the door on Him by either wanting to take care of our own business or just ignoring God all together.  For those who are willing, though, He seems ready for action.

David stands ready to face Goliath and wins.  The three Hebrew young men are ready to stand against the foreign kingdom and get saved from death by fire.  The apostle Paul when he finally gives in to Jesus gets blessed and a calling.

courageous the movieIn Courageous the Movie, Adam Mitchel proclaims his willingness to let God have control of his life.  He studies to find out God’s plans for fatherhood and seeks out God’s truth for being a dad.  I am reminded of the Old Testament verse in which God says, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”

Seekers are finders.  Find the truth of God in the Bible, in Christian people wiser in experience and study and in prayer.  When we find it we live it and we will never be the same again.
