The Art of Discomfort

Description

In this message, I invite you to reflect with me on what I call the art of discomfort—those unsettling moments in life that, as strange as it may seem, can be the Lord’s loving way of nudging us forward into something deeper and better. Drawing from Secrets of Heaven 2411, and the story of Lot’s rescue from Sodom, we’re reminded that the cities being destroyed are not physical places, but unhealthy attachments and patterns within ourselves. “The more we detach from bodily and worldly concerns…the more we rise upwards toward heaven” (Secrets of Heaven 2411). Discomfort, then, becomes a spiritual invitation—God gently or abruptly leading us by the hand toward something higher. This talk encourages us to step outside our routines, try small new things, and begin to love the growth that comes with change. The art of discomfort is the art of growth, and as we cooperate with the Lord in this process, we experience a deeper peace that surpasses mere comfort.
