Stole this from my friends at Spirit Hoods. So good. So true :)
without the doing, the dreaming is useless. ~ r.a.
God is the most madly alive, creative, uninhibited, wisely passionate being in the universe. And we were created in His image. Born to live in His wild flow. The call to live—to be holy—is a call to abandon ourselves, holding absolutely nothing back. It is to surrender to the wildness of God—and to the wonder of life.
A life pursuing holiness, says Peter, is a life that is sprinting away from small-minded living. Nothing dry or somber here. Why is it that Peter finds the pursuit of the holy so enticing? Because God is holy.
