You might say, "Well, I don't think God's ever going to launch me out. I've had a lot of bad breaks. I've gone through a lot of disappointments in life." Think of it like this: When you have a bow and arrow, the more you pull the arrow back, the further it's going to shoot. If you just pull it back a little ways, if there's no pressure, no tension, it's not going to go very far. God has allowed you to be pulled back because He's about to shoot you further than you have ever imagined! You will advance, coming on like a storm..." (Ezekiel 38:9, ESV)
