One liners.

One liners…. what really says wisdom like one liners?

Really, I have read a lot of stuff so to say… articles, books, yada… yada…yada… and I am finding out the main things that stick with me are the ideas that stick to “main things”. I heard one the other day and it has since haunted me, taunted me and gradually brought me to ask those difficult questions to the Man who was whispering the questions for me to ask Him all along.

Someone said, “people die with potential all the time”.

ALL THE TIME> That is some pretty strong word-age. And packs a pretty strong punch if you let it sink. Let’s look at the word potential. “POSSIBLE AS OPPOSED TO ACTUAL” says dictionary.com  Possible like obtaining those random dreamings that occur throughout the day or possible like what you set you mind to instead of what your mind actually accomplishes. Possible like  tangible if willing possible? Possible like stretch yourself, get uncomfortable and make it happen possible. Like making the home run possible or completing the triathlon possible. They MUST be talking about the possibility of all things being possible, possibly.

Another definition is “CAPABLE OF BEING OR BECOMING”. Capable like able to but optional? Eish….. does that translate into “ball in my court”? And since it most certainly does is that like the moment in life where I wake up and find that I actually desire more than I “do” and see the “potential” that is said to be sometimes buried with the flesh and never produced in the here and now?

It all makes me want to not sleep. It all proves to myself that I am not living to the fullest. Jesus once said that He desires that we live life to the “full” in John chapter 10. I always loved that verse. I would read it and something inside of me sent sparks off. I dreamed when I read it. I imagined all that I could and multiplied it times God’s FULLEST> It compelled me at one point… not so much this one… maybe that’s why I am writing. I like to verbalize the internalized to help calm this souls’ longings to do something not so human sized but God SIZED>>>>

When you were a child you spoke and acted as one but now… NOW you are a GROWN UP… and well… we all know that if you are indeed wearing the BIG pants and using BIG words then desiring BIG things is absolutely a part of such a life. I mean we got the big house, the big job, the big bills…. where’s the BIG LIFE? And so here I am. Listening to my heart beat for something God sized. Waiting to move when He says go. The problem is now, I don’t know if I am supposed to ask or be told. Wait or shoot out in the million directions this feeling could take me to.

I was a child and now I am not.

I don’t want to be that person who is packed with potential 6 feet under. Ughhhh. what an awful feeling. never coming to the end of myself to let Him begin.
