Ready Aim!! Ready Aim!! Ready Aim!! Come on man, pull the trigger!!!
A friend of mine the other day, Brady Boyd to be exact, talked about how great we are at aiming, planning, dreaming, and how inept we are at doing, starting, and implementing. We ready aim, ready aim, ready aim, ad nauseam.
My friend suggests some times using the strategy of the old battle ships. Where the gunner would shoot and the guy in the watch tower(with binocolars) would yell, "Move 30 feet to the left!!" They would shoot again. "10 feet left!!" Boom. Bullseye!!!
Get the picture? You adjust and learn after you fire. Ready,FIRE,aim.
Why don't we pull the trigger? I think it mainly has to do with fear. Some see giants. Some see giant opportunity. It seems that almost every good thing in life comes from risk. Learning to ride a bike. Learning to swim. Asking someone to spend their life with you.
So go ahead FIRE!!! Pull the trigger. Take the leap. What is it that you are sitting on that your heart has told you to try? That "thing" God has called you to do?
READY? FIRE

BANG! Man, you are dead on, Ty. Pull the freagin' trigger, already. Let's doers of the word not only hearers of it. It's amazing how the water goes from hot to luke-warm in between the hearing part and the doing part. Did I say "luke-warm?" Uh oh, didn't God say that He spews those who are luke-warm out of His mouth? Just DO it!
Hey, Dee Wayne's sister here, I stumbled across your blog today. I am going to enjoy spying on your journey with God. Thanks for the great reminders. We all need to learn to just pull the trigger already!
