The genealogy of blessing always traces back to God-ordained risk.

I don't know about you, but I want God to reveal the second step before I take the first step of faith. But I've discovered that if I don't take the first step, God generally won't reveal the next step...Most of us will only follow Christ to the point of precedence -- the place where we have been before. But ...If you want God to do something new, you cannot keep doing what you've always done. You've got to push past the fear of the unknown. You've got to do something different.

Most God-ordained dreams die because we are not willing to do something that seems illogical

Ryan-chasers have a life wish. They live life to the fullest because they are willing to look foolish.

The more you’re willing to risk, the more God can use you. And if you’re willing to risk everything, then there is nothing God can’t do in you and through you.

You cannot build God’s reputation if you aren’t willing to risk yours.
