What will it take to get you to feel 're-energised' again? A holiday, a day to yourself, a soaking bath, a red-bull, a good sleep? Sometimes the simple movement we have to make is to realise 'what it will take' and then we face the harder task of taking initiative and actually doing it!
When the rich young ruler asked Jesus this question in Mark 10, he was asking because he felt as if he was lacking something in his life - he was in a rut, he was feeling unfulfilled, he craved something more. He may as well of asked, "Jesus, what will it take for me to feel alive again?"
Jesus gave an answer which the young man didn't like and so he went away sad and disillusioned. He knew the answer, but he was unwilling to take Jesus' advice. There is another lesson in Mark 10 (besides the usual one's) and that is this: "Don't ask the question, unless you are prepared to act on the answer. How desperate are you to know 'what it will take' to change your life around?"
Action: Read Mark 10. What are your thoughts on this ?
I have made a few changes to the design of the actual blog page, which are just a little experiment. Please make a turn to www.delmelinscott.blogspot.com for 20 seconds and let me know your thoughts.
