Color outside the lines

"Life is not a color-within-the-lines project; life is a work of art.
You have to keep mixing colors, creating new blends, and seeing things in fresh ways.
You must be willing to get paint all over you.
Life is about growth. Growth demands change. Change requires humility."
~ Erwin McManus



It’s time to get messy, make mistakes…big ones…..do something good, for someone. Get to know who you are and more importantly....who you are becoming. Life is a series of choices, those choices make up your character….what kind of character are you creating? Who are you trying to please? Who are you living for? What are you living for? Change is hard, harder than you think it ought to be, YOU are afraid of change…..no, maybe you are just afraid. Fear is not what you live for. Freedom is. Freedom from the need to be perfect. Free to be broken…and stay that way. Because you only have learned how much you really need HIM since you have learned how broken you really are. Cause a catastrophe as you follow Him, let it be unpredictable. Chase after him. Hard. And just keep running. He is what you live for. He is the only thing worth living for. He saved you from death, he brought you into light. Live in that light. He is enough.
