When God wants you to grow, he makes you uncomfortable
When we pray, we assume God wants us to be happy, comfortable, and satisfied. However, Jesus often spoke about the importance of our discomfort. You won’t be “hungry for righteousness sake” if you’re too comfortable. The Bible speaks about how important our discomfort is to God.
He came to “comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.”
