The Gate — J Calaway — Make Today Count — No Plan B

“Going all in isn’t reckless; it’s the only way.”

Let that hit you. We often think giving everything to a dream or calling is risky, but what if holding back is the real risk? What if going all in is the key to unlocking what God has for you.

Going all in isn’t about being impulsive or throwing caution to the wind. It’s about giving your whole heart—your time, energy, and faith—to what God’s calling you to do. Whether it’s starting a ministry, chasing a career goal, or loving your family fiercely, going all in means no half-measures. It’s saying, “This matters, and I’m giving it everything.”

We often hesitate because we think it’s reckless. What if I fail? What if it’s too much? But here’s the truth: playing it safe keeps you stuck. Going all in isn’t reckless—it’s the only way to live fully alive, to step into the purpose God designed for you. (Luke 9:23)

1. Identify your calling. What’s one thing God’s put on your heart? Get clear—write it down.

2. Take a faith-filled step. Do something bold today, even if it’s small. Reach out, plan, pray.

3. Trust God’s guidance. Lean on Proverbs 3:5-6

God didn’t give you a purpose to tiptoe toward it! Whether it’s your faith, your family, or your dreams, give it everything.

And in all you do Make Today Count!
