.WHAT RACE ARE YOU RUNNING?RUNNING THE RACE OF ADVENTURE
Trailblazer for Life
This new look website via this Tale in your inbox only scratches the surface. No website, Tale post, mural, café interior, photo, art, writing, coffee, product, mountain top, trail, run or podcast can capture true adventure, true Life. Its impossible, simply because we cannot live each other’s lives. Yet, in one way we can. This Tale provides a bit of a backdrop into how living Life in our lives came about, and how Life is to live into the future. We hope True Life inspires you…
Living a Life of adventure
Are you being used or useful? Are you being used in living a life in response to events and facts happening around you, or are you useful at whatever age you are in making impact, by using what you can offer in your gifts and talents to leave a legacy to those around you?
Trailblazer came about hearing God’s Word through this gentleman in 2011. He would not want to be named because True Life for him is not about himself. “Be a trailblazer for the Gospel!” he said.
Something more? God uses us if we avail ourselves, yet sometimes we do not realise we are on an adventure already! This is not about us - it will not always be exciting. This is about what God is doing - His adventure, His mission. The mission is everywhere.
Like our planets’ moon, our lives are just a reflection. We either reflect true Life, or we reflect something of ourselves which does not last but fades and is soon forgotten.
What does living a Life of adventure look like and what does it mean to live a truly adventurous Life?
Our stepping (usually into the unknown) is God’s adventure, yet the journey is personal to everyone – showing and telling a message of Life to everyone in everything we do. Life is the Gospel. The Gospel is this:
What’s your race for your life? Do you know True Life, and if you do how…
…do you live a Life of adventure?
Respond to God in Jesus.
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit," - Matthew 28:19
It usually feels uncomfortable.
Leverage our opportunity of Life on earth to enjoy Him everyday and in everything we do.
"So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." - 1 Corinthians 10:31
This shapes what we do by why we do it. Not unto us.
There is only one way to Life.
"Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6
God in Jesus is the True Trailblazer, True Life, True adventure.
True life? What we see scratches the surface. There is always more, yet in some ways our lives are similar – we were made for true Life. What life are you running? [photo: brewing relational artisan coffee at one of the events we worked at].
What is your greatest adventure in life?
Could this for you be the answer to the question: “What race are you running?”
"There is none like you among the gods, O Lord,
nor are there any works like yours.
All the nations you have made shall come
and worship before you, O Lord,
and shall glorify your name.
For you are great and do wondrous things;
you alone are God.
Teach me your way, O Lord,
that I may walk in your truth;
unite my heart to fear your name.
I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
and I will glorify your name forever.
For great is your steadfast love toward me;
you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol."
