Shoes on the Move met on Tuesday, June 22 and had a wonderful meeting. Women were encouraged and strengthened in worship and by the Word. Charlana Kelly shared a message on Answering the Call to Fulfill Your Destiny. God has called each of us to do something extraordinary for the Kingdom.
She encouraged each one to answer God’s call by acting upon the desires He has placed in our hearts. One of the most important parts of answering the call is to understand that we didn’t just dream it up on our own. God planned it and imparted the call into our hearts, then equipped us with all we need to fulfill our purpose (John 15:16 & Hebrews 13:20-21).
One of the greatest struggles we go through when embarking on the journey is overcoming our fears. Charlana shared two important keys to help us get beyond our fears. First, become more conscious of God’s ability than our inabilities. Second is to simply act, put feet to the vision God has placed in your heart.
#1 – God chooses the most unlikely ones (Ordinary people to do extraordinary things.)
#2 – Gideon acted even though he was afraid
#3 – Its okay to confirm what you believe God has put in your heart
#4 – Remain sensitive to the Holy Spirit so that God can lead you
#5 – Be careful to give God all the glory for the victories in your life

Dale Carnegie said this, “Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breedsCharlana pointed out that we need to consider Gideon when we struggle with God’s call. Through the events of Gideon’s life detailed in Judges 6 and 7, we can learn a number of things…
confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think
about it. Go out and get busy.”
