Comfort Zone
May/0920
I used to have a comfort zone where I knew I wouldn’t fail.
The same four walls and busywork were really more like jail.
I longed so much to do the things I’d never done before,
But stayed inside my comfort zone and paced the same old floor.
I said it didn’t matter that I wasn’t doing much.
I said I didn’t care for things like commission checks and such.
I claimed to be so busy with the things inside the zone,
But deep inside I longed for something special of my own.
I couldn’t let my life go by just watching others win.
I held my breath; I stepped outside and let the change begin.
I took a step and with new strength I’d never felt before,
I kissed my comfort zone goodbye and closed and locked the door.
If you’re in a comfort zone, afraid to venture out,
Remember that all winners were at one time filled with doubt.
A step or two and words of praise can make your dreams come true.
Reach for your future with a smile; success is there for you!

The timing of receiving “Comfort Zone” was perfect in that my hope is that God is leading a friend out of his comfort zone. Life difficulties can be the space within four walls – a lonely place to be. I believe there are angels among us – you were guided to share the message. Thank you.

Its true as the proverb says “if you are not willing to leave the sight of the shore, you will never discover the new oceans”

So Beautiful, So Peaceful, So Sweet, and So Wonderful and Awesome is Love and Gods Love!!!
Thanks so much for such inspiring and touching card of words, scenery and music.
In this great big world of so much confusion, corruption at times is when we bow our heads and kneel and say a prayer to God, and ask Him for help and the strength,courage we as humans do not have but He does. He gives us the strength and courage to step out and do not fear my child is what Our Heavenly Father tells us His children, for I am with you always and will protect the Righteous (My Children) from the evil ones.
God lives in all of us who allow Him in from the Sunshine of life, which the enemies would love to keep us in darkness, despair and depression!
God Is The Answer Always no matter the problems we face here in this evil world!
God will never abandon His children who seek Him, and go to Him for Help and be patient for Gods time is not our time, and He always does things in His time, and for all who love Him, Honor Him, Respect Him, Fear Him, and Obey Him, and in due season/time our prayers are answered and God is of Truth!
I know myself, I do not know or have the answers but God does for He Is The Master Of all things and Creation.:)

Thank you so much for the comforting poem… I feel that it was written just for me.
I cried when reading it as it fits me to a “T.” All my life I have been dominated and fearful
to try anything new, afraid that I would fail and be embarrassed. When I was complimented
I didn’t believe them. I then thought, fear is the failure of your faith and I indeed have a good
solid faith. Your poem brought forth the courage that I had inside me all along. It feels like
freedom !!! Thank you so much for all of your beautiful poems, etc. GOD bless you !!!
