The Ease of a Life Without Vision

I didn’t start Dream Year out of a penchant for my own dreams. I honestly and truly believe every person has an audacious calling in life. But most of us ignore it in favor of comfort, faux security, societal expectations and “rationality.”

It is easier to serve God without a vision, easier to work for God without a call, because then you are not bothered by what God requires; common sense is your guide, veneered over with Christian sentiment. You will be more prosperous and successful, more leisure-hearted, if you never realize the call of God. But if once you receive a commission from Jesus Christ, the memory of what God wants will always come like a goad; you will no longer be able to work for Him on the common-sense basis. ~ Oswald Chambers
