It should be common sense that knowing what must be done and doing that very thing are two separate actions. It seems that many like doing the first and like the idea of doing the second, but when the time comes, actually doing what needs to be done becomes void of action.
We recently welcomed a dear family member (technically my nephew - even though he doesn’t necessarily enjoy the title because I’m younger than him) to Ukraine.
I mention this with the intent to show a trait we all need to work on; stepping out of a comfort zone entails exactly the mixture of both knowing and doing what is good.

The pushing of boundaries is fundamental to the inaction of goodness. Whether that be through joining a volunteer military brigade as a registered doctor and a fear of artillery (one of the troop’s personal stories); leading an English lesson to ESL students without assistance; or learning an entirely new and different language than the one you’re native to.
We must move forward, past our insecurities and, indeed, with our fear.
The places we haven’t been to yet, can only be reached with such breaking of boundaries.
“I admire those who can use the gospel to touch the lives of others in ways and places I cannot. God bless and good luck.”
-Christian B. H.
