Are You Dangerous?

“If you knew who you really were and acted like it, you’d be dangerous.”

Sometimes we try so hard to be who we think others want us to be or who we think we want to be that we forget to just BE!  Some people have a lifetime identity crisis.  They never realize who they are and are on a lifetime journey to discover just what that looks like.  Grass doesn’t have to try hard to grow, and a flower doesn’t struggle to bloom.  Under the right conditions with water and sun the flora around us just exists, and we marvel at its beauty.  In the animal kingdom, eagles do not ask the other birds what type of bird they are.  They do not require lessons on being an eagle, and a lion does not have to ask how to roar.  They just exist and do what they were born to do.

For those of us who are in Christ, know that we are the head and not the tail, we are above and not beneath, we are joint heirs with Christ, and we are the sons and daughters of God.  We know that our lives have purpose, and we are called to live according to His purpose.  His purpose is having a loving relationship with us, for us to have unity in His Spirit and for us to love others as we love ourselves (the Golden Rule).  If we are unclear of the details of our purpose, then He will reveal those details to us as long as we are tuned in to His frequency.

Stop wondering who you are.  You were fearfully and wonderfully made.  God made you perfectly and uniquely.  There is none other like you, and no one can do what you can do or contribute to the world in the same way you can with the same talents and gifts that God has planted inside of you.  Start stirring your gifts, use your talent for love, and BE the person God created you to be.  Be DANGEROUS!
