What's in a name?

So, I felt like I should post a blog explaining why my blog is named: "Not settling for this world..."

A few months back, Stacey (my FYT partner) and I were at CCOJ (Christ's Church of Joplin) late after a seminar. We were the only people in the church building, so we decided to worship together. Just a few minutes into worship and I felt like God was speaking to me and urging me to sing out a prophetic song. The song went like this,

My Child, I have called you!
I have called you!
My child, I have called you to more than you're living...
Why are you settling for this world?

I know this idea of living for something more had been on my mind many times before but somehow, it really hit me this time. I'm thinking it's because I heard this directly from God by the power of His Holy Spirit. Ever since that night, the question, "Why are you settling for this world?" has popped into my mind at random times. This word from God has not only made me think, but challenged me to live radically for Him. It's also caused me to remember that nothing on this earth will satisfy me completely, and that if I don't keep my eyes on Jesus I'll soon be lost in the fleeting desires of this earth. I'm so glad that He does call us to something more!

There you have it! ^^^That is what's in a name, or should I say the name of my blog! (;
Living for more,
Abby
