Talk Thursday // I want to be Arwen


The character of Arwen from The Lord of the Rings movies is one of the greatest characters ever (in my humble opinion). Probably my favorite line in any movie is "If you want him - come and claim him!" She's daring and brave and passionate. And she gets to be makey-outy with Viggo. ;)

Adventures intrigue and inspire us. Epic tales of heros and heroines battling the villians awaken something within us.

I have always wanted to be part of an adventure. Something that requires that my life be completely and forever altered, something that alters the lives of the people around me.

At this point, I don't feel like I've found my "great adventure." But there is always hope.

Are you part of an epic adventure? Do you long to be caught up in something greater than yourself? To ride off into the sunset, knowing that you are completely changed from who you were before? If you haven't found it yet, are you looking? Do you want to be part of an adventure? What adventures are you dreaming of?

Go

"You cannot stay where you are and go with God." - Henry Blackaby

Mentally? Emotionally? Spiritually? Physically?

This is a thought I avoid. I don't want to be real with God, with you, with my family. But God is saying "Sarah, you cannot stay where you are and go where I want you to go." 

I really feel like He is saying that I need to stay where I am physically, but I need to be moving spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Great adventures around the world sound so much better and awesomer. But sometimes He doesn't work like that. He knows where we are and where we need to go. 

Where are you? Where does God want you to go? Are you going to go?
