Imagine you have to go from Los Angeles to New York at night. And the only electricity you have access to is the light in your car. And if you don't go at night, tonight, you will die.
Now I believe there are two ways of taking this trip.
The first is of course wait until daylight. A nice time, when you can see better, there are no clouds, the sun is shining and everything is beautiful. The problem with this option is that there are no guarantee whatsoever that the following day is going to be a good day, plus you'd be dead. So, basically instead of living, you waited on life. Not the smartest choice. God gave you a life for a reason: to live it fully.
Now, waiting is an interesting choice mainly because it is the safest one. It is also based on fear. You will die though.
At this point you must be thinking that choosing to travel at night is going to cause you to live. And yes, that's what is going to happen.
You see, when the car is going in the dark and all you can see is a couple of feet ahead, you are actually exercising your faith as you have a destination which is New York. And the most important part here is of course the journey, not so much the destination. Plus you aquire experience on the way.
This is my idea and below is the quote.
"All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience."
~Henry Miller
