What are we waiting for?
Seriously?
What are we waiting for?
This is as much a note to me as anyone else.
I find myself always waiting for something...
I'll follow Jesus wholly after school... after college... after uni... after I get married... after I've had kids... after I'm retired...
And eventually... I begin to wonder... what am I REALLY waiting for?
I talk and talk and talk, about giving Jesus my whole life, my WHOLE life. I talk about giving up all my luxuries... about giving everything I have for Him.
I read about revolutionaries and great men and women of God and I say "Yeah, I want to be that! I want to be like that! I want to live my whole life like that!"
And then I go back to college the next day and go about my day to day life again.
Don't get me wrong, Jesus is a massive part of my life... He comes up in every conversation, is in my heart all the time, relates to everything and anything and frequently brings me to tears...
But is He really EVERYTHING?
Really?
Do I honestly believe that? Am I living completely for Him?
Because I go on and on about how fed up I am with myself, with the world, with the devil and all his stupid lies... but what am I doing about it?
We need to be a generation without boundaries.
It was for FREEDOM, that we were SET FREE!
So why are we letting the world get in our way?
Let's jump out of the cycle the world has presented us with... Let us jump out of worldly perception of reality, and fall at the feet of the Savior who has given us the power to do ALL THINGS! To cast out daemons, to heal the sick, to perform miracles! To love the unlovable, to feed the hungry, to shelter the homeless, to help the poor... to hug the unhuggable... to teach the unteachable... to reach the unreachable...
and then...
AND THEN...
to redeem the irredeemable.
We are but vessels. But God's love surpasses all else. His power is beyond limitation... he holds the universe in His hands...
So let's jump!
