"Be a bush if you can't be a tree. If you can't be a highway, just be a trail. If you can't be a sun, be a star. For it isn't by size that you win or fail. Be the best of whatever you are." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Today I wanted to take moment to reflect on the trailblazing movements that Dr. King placed emphasis on. A society built on love not hate, a place of equality and a vision that instilled a sense of worth no matter who you were. A dream that was worth living then and is now more than ever.
This weekend my wife and I were blessed to host a group of youth from our church and participate in a weekend of worship. It was inspiring and moving to say the least to see so many people singing, listening to the word of God, and praising Him for all He has given to all of us. Part of the message that hit me the most was the truth in that we are ALL redeemed, we are all worthy, we are all children of God. Jesus didn't die for some of us, He died for all of us. Everybody has opportunity to offer something, everyone has moments to be great, to give, to serve, to be everything that God intended us to be. We simply have to realize that we can, that God wants us to, that he is passionate about loving us as we are. We are not perfect, but with God we are perfectly loved.
God is at work in all we do. It is up to us to see it, to be present, to want to be found. It is up to us, as Dr. King says to be the best of whatever we are, and to be grateful to God that we can be.
Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and have a blessed week everyone!
