PSR
“Point of safe return” is an aviation term used to calculate the amount of fuel needed to return to your original landing strip. Once you’ve passed the “PSR” one’s only course is to your destination as there’s not enough fuel to safely return home.
In a discussion with Grady yesterday, I honestly, but reluctantly admitted I’d reached my “PSR” back in October or November. In the time after reaching my “PSR” several things have been accomplished.
First, I’ve successfully tested my concept on three different novels. Second, I met a truly great woman. Third, I was able to travel to several “tourist” destinations in the country. Lastly, my resolve has grown.
Living outside of my “comfort zone” and placing myself in positions or situations where it’s either sink or swim, do or die, succeed or fail has tested my character. It’s an extremely insightful experience and with no others around(in proximity) my reliance upon Him has grown.
I continue on my course, a capable co-pilot, as He is, and always has been, my captain.
Today, Friday, February 28, 2020, I am grateful that:
Reluctance to ask for help has subsided. I’ve been apprehensive for several days as I’ve finally cemented my plans and I’m ready to move forward.
Others are moving along parallel paths. Grady’s in a similar situation and as we spoke, our mutual dilemmas and ensuing advice fed the other’s.
More and more ways to successfully manifest my purpose appear daily.
Have you passed your “point of safe return?”
Who’s your captain?
Who do you know on a similar journey?
How often do you share your experience with them?
