I believe a life lived for Christ should be far more than mediocre. It should be full of passion, full of joy, full of love, fully selfless and fully surrendered to a high King, - THE high king who also happens to be our loving Papa. I believe we as his beautiful/handsome children should be living life completely in him.
Life completely in him is so not mediocre! I'm realizing living a day with him should bring excitement each morning. It puts a hope in your heart of good things to come! 'Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living.' Leave that little black cloud that has been clinging to you behind!! 'Be not afraid and be not discouraged!! For I your God will be with you always!' God IS. God is what? God IS everything. When you have that power inside of you, your power, your love, your peace, your strength - everything becomes limitless. Why? Because it is not your own, it is your fathers (your real heavenly fathers), and through Christ you have access to it all. And he IS.
When you know that is inside of you, does that not make you want to make the most of life? Doesn't that make you want to give all you can, be all you can, love all you can and live life in surrender to a crazy, unpredictable, fresh, exciting, limitless Father? It should encourage you to carry on despite your circumstances. Circumstances may not change, but with Jesus he carries us through hard ones!
Pour your life out to him, for him, and see what happens. Your life can be potentially something way out of this world. Not because you have it inside of you, no, it is found in Jesus, who can be inside of you! And Jesus's life on earth was far from mediocre.
No more of this day in, day out dreary nonsense. Life is most definitely not meant to be lived half hearted. If you're living with Jesus, pour out your WHOLE heart, your WHOLE life, it's an ongoing process. Let HIM take your hand and lead you where to go. Spice it up with Jesus!!
