To give yourself to the leading of the Holy Spirit requires a leap of faith.  Let's face it, we often have our own plans; sometimes we are rather fond of our plans, or worked hard for them and letting God redirect us can cause apprehension.  Here's something I like to keep in mind with Holy Spirit at the helm - He always wants what's best for us -He's on our side.  I find the more I get to know who God is, the more trusting I am when he leads me to do things that remind me of jumping off a cliff.

In my life right now, I see Holy Spirit filling my sails for a adventure in writing.  I love writing, and although I dream about releasing stories to the masses, it's really been just a hobby. Right now, the Lord is challenging me to consider what it would look like to really take hold of my time and use it to invest in this passion - and to believe Him that beautiful things could come from this journey.  Going after your dreams can be intimidating because what tends to live in the realm of imagination is being pulled into reality - an often bumpy transition.
