Minimum Safe Distance

Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace    Hebrews 4:16


By now, everyone is more than aware when you go to most stores, you will see a small square that admonishes you to keep a safe 6 feet distance between other customers.  - plans for good things

I wonder if that applies to our spiritual journey? Have you gotten to where you stay at a "minimum safe distance" from God, for fear of what He might put in your heart, what be asking you to do?  

*Missionary to Africa
* Evangelist at work
* Or a confessor to our friends

We know the plans we have for ourselves- plans for good things ahead - and we trust ourselves to know what's good.

King David wrote, it's precisely when we close the distance to God that we actually discover what we have been looking for.  "Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalms 37:4

The key to receiving this promise is trust. We must trust the God of the universe might know better what is "good" for us!
