God didn’t save you so you could be comfortable. He saved you so you could be useful.

Comfort makes a poor destination. It is a good thing to have in a week and a bad thing to organize a life around, because a life arranged to avoid disturbance slowly shrinks to the size of one room. Being useful costs more and is worth more, and it is closer to what you were saved for. That is a trade being offered, not a punishment handed down.

Find the thing you keep avoiding because it would inconvenience you. The visit, the volunteering, the conversation, the early alarm. Do one of them this month and notice how differently the week reads afterward.
