No Copy & Paste

Time for another brain stretch. Let go of what you think your life will be like or should be like. Let go of all the things people have said to you, what your best friend is doing, or what your parents have said, the so often repeated question-

“Have you met anyone yet?”

or...

“How is it going on your app?”

Now spend some time imagining what ‘immeasurably more than I ask or imagine’ from the Ephesians 3 passage would look like for you today.

Not for tomorrow, or a year ahead, for TODAY. So often, we spend time looking at the lives of others or concerning ourselves with the worries of tomorrow. But as God says, tomorrow has enough worries of its own (Matthew 6:34).

God, in all His glory, wants us to stretch our imagination and faith and really come to Him with uncomfortable questions. Because He can answer them, He is not limited by time, strength, or wisdom. I believe He would feel overjoyed at us coming to Him like this, like children.

Imagine God being a Michelin star chef, and He said to you,

“I will make you anything you want to eat.”

Are you going to order an omelette? No way!

You’re going to pause, ponder, and think of something absolutely divine that you could never make for yourself.

Now take the time to do this for you, stretch your faith… you might be surprised at where your imagination takes you. Perhaps the life you imagine is quite different from those around you. Let that excite you, don’t worry, God’s got you.
