This I believe.
I have the hope that this world was not made for disaster, one-night stands, and diseases that rob even the youngest of their life.
It was not created to go on turning day after day while its children cry out for their lives.
Our existence was not by chance.
It was not a mistake.
We were created by a great lover.
One who desires to sweep us into a great, epic romance.
Desires to heals all wounds and hush even the deepest of cries that wrenches from the pit of our stomachs.
Greater things are yet to come...
We were not created to live inharmoniously. Not to hate another because of ethnicity or orientation. We were not created to live with haughty eyes looking down on our brothers and sisters, or with shame, begging for just a drop of water for our dying child.
Greater things are yet to come...
It doesn't begin with us just "waiting for the world to change". No, John Mayer. We must be the change. It is not on our own though.
We have a creator, a lover who dares us to jump into the water head first, and trust that he will take us on a journey that is worthwhile.
He will use our hearts to make a change. To be the change. To love the unlovable. To reach out to the untouchable.
Hope is an awesome thing. Certainly not for the faint of heart.
Do you dare?
Could you possibly take a jump and believe...?
Greater things are yet to come.
