One of the saddest human conditions is complacency. Each of us carries so much potential, unique in our own way. Yet complacency has a way of quietly robbing us of it. Who wants to reach the end of life wondering… what could have been?

Take Richard Branson, for example. The entrepreneur, adventurer, and founder of over 400 companies, was once described by his teachers as “a bit lazy.” Who would have thought?

We may not all be Richard Branson, but we’ve each been given gifts and potential to make a difference. When we’re young, we dream boldly. But life has a way of slowing us down. Complacency. Fear. Circumstances.

As someone wisely said: One life. Just one. Why aren’t we running like we’re on fire toward our wildest dreams?

Proverbs 16:9 reminds us: “People can plan what they want to do, but it is the LORD who guides their steps.”

Maybe there’s a dream God placed on your heart long ago, one you keep returning to. Why not take that step today and let Him guide you? If it’s from Him, He will lead you every step of the way.

Today I’ve been reflecting on Acts 2:42: “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and the prayers.”

The book of Acts really is like the best kind of sequel. The story of what happened after Jesus rose from the grave.

The early church faced persecution, drama, and all kinds of challenges, yet the Bible says they “continued steadfastly” in teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer. That phrase always grabs me. They didn’t give up when it got hard.

When we gather, we hear God’s truth together, and it anchors us against the lies and distractions around us. We find fellowship, the connection we were created for, so that when we’re low, others can speak life and faith into us.

We break bread, sharing communion and meals that remind us of what Jesus has done and put everything else in perspective. And we pray, believing that when we come together, heaven moves. I’ve seen miracles and breakthroughs happen because a community invited Jesus into the middle of it.

So I want to encourage you: don’t give up on gathering. If you’re not part of a church community, get around one. And if you’re not a Christian, come along anyway, just turn up and see what it’s like. You might just experience God, and that’s never a bad thing.

Each week, Pastor Izzy from Courageous Church joins Leah and Dan to break down a bible verse just like this one. Listen to his full message here 👉 bit.ly/46Uw54U
