What Would You Do If. . . in a different way
I was playing some mind games as I went to bed last night, pondering the question that coaches and spiritual people often ask: "What would you do if you had a million dollars?" or "What would you do if nothing else mattered?" I usually get stuck on this question due to my sense of responsibility and the desire to make the right choices.
However, I rephrased the question for myself, likely through God's inspiration and the study I'm doing on discerning His voice. I asked, "If you were in heaven and God said you could do anything you want right now, what would you do?" This perspective set me free from the burdens of "what's next?"
My mind bounced around like a pinball, considering various activities. Initially, I thought of simple things like playing a board game with friends, reading, or watching something. Then, more adventurous ideas came to mind, such as sailing on a fast, fun boat, flying an FPV drone, sailing around the world, and engaging in outdoor activities like skiing, mountain biking, and primitive camping. Some sinful thoughts crept in, but I quickly refocused on staying in alignment with God's will for my life.
The common thread seemed to be a love for outdoor adventures, particularly those involving water. I also considered spending time with my kids, playing games, and exploring nature together, like our "stream stomping" adventures. While some of these activities require learning and expensive equipment, many are free and accessible.
I don't have a clear conclusion, but approaching the question from the perspective of being in heaven and God asking what you want to do right now might help if you've been stuck like I have. I plan to continue asking this question over the next few days, as I'm starting Tony Robbins' "Unleash the Power Within" event tomorrow, and I know he has a way of blowing your mind with his connection to the Lord.
My advice is to start dreaming, figure out what inspires and fires you up, and go after it. If you have multiple passions, the next challenge is deciding which to pursue first. Thanks for joining me today, and you be blessed!
