Rebirth

My life feels like it is on the cusp of change, a new season. I feel like I am being prepared for birth, like I am at full term but not yet ready to be born. I have outgrown my womb, there is that uncomfortable pressure of being positioned to be born. Is there anything that is keeping me from being in the right position? Am I breeched? I am almost ready, but it will take intimacy, time in prayer and worship to make me ready to be born, lots of intimacy. Think about birth, and how the infant has to be ready. There is pressure, squeezing. How the birth is painful and bloody, the moment of birth is confusing and the infant is crying.
 This experience is not exclusive to myself, many go through this when God is preparing to do a new thing in their lives. The trick is to violently remove anything that is keeping you from being ready to enter into the next season of our work, life, or ministry. What is holding you back? Find it and rip it out, nothing is worth losing out on God's best for your life.
