Which Goes First? Push or Pull?

by  • 

Push and pull are opposite actions. However, in order to move forward some times we have to do both.

There is no one way to accomplish a task: Losing weight, it involves exercise, dieting or intermittent fasting at times; having a baby is possible through natural birth, adoption or in vitro; building a house requires materials, design, and a location; and getting to point A we need to either walk, drive or fly.

The beauty of moving forward is not only found in the outcome, but also in its process. In order to move ahead there are things we must revamp along the way. You see, the way we “used to do it” may give us the results we want, but not the results we need. In order to move forward and be successful we may need to step back to follow, whether it’s push or pull.

In Matthew 4:19 He said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

Whether you have to push or pull, choose to move forward, even if it is not the traditional way of doing things.
