He is bigger than everything I can imagine, yet small enough to hear my faintest whisper.
He is Emmanuel, God with us, dwelt among men; yet He is the Great I Am.
He is stronger than strong, yet able to sympathize with my weakness because He's walk through it Himself.
He is the Lord of all creation, yet still He knows every bit of me.
He is the Pursuer of raggamuffins, yet Royalty--the King of kings.
He is the Star Breathing, All Knowing, Ever Present, Grace Filled, Truth speaking, Love pouring GOD.
He is....
JESUS.

I'm going to change the world.
You read right.
I am going to change the world.
The best part of it is: it's not me at all.
It's Jesus.
Jesus is going to change the world through me.
And you...if we'll let Him.
Who's with me? Time to raise a revolution. Time to stop living like everything is so "normal" when we have such an extraordinary God.

Explosion.
I cannot sit back any longer.
I cannot claim to know the Truth when parts of my life show it a lie.
I cannot give my life to Jesus in pieces...it's all or nothing.
And it will be ALL.
Every bit.
I don't care anymore what it costs me. I don't care if my reputation is tarnished, or if people think I'm crazy. I don't care if my life is taken from me. I serve the Resurrection and the Life. How dare a fear of death be an excuse.
I'm done with mediocrity. I'm done with being lukewarm. I'm done with myself. This flesh. This wretched, corrupt pride and sin. I AM DONE for IT IS FINISHED and my King...your King...reigns.
High above it all, He reigns. Waiting for us to notice. Waiting for us to turn our faces back to Him instead of turning our backs. When we will turn? When we will learn?
He waits.
This King, who left heaven and became man. Took on flesh and became sin. Sin itself that you and I could become the Righteousness of God.
You and I...
the Righteousness of God.
What a scandal. Scandalous grace.
It has caught me up in Him and I cannot be ashamed. I will not be ashamed.
I will speak the Name of Jesus. Wielding the Sword that He is given me. I'm done with giving other things precedence and living in mediocrity. Our God is bigger, bigger than we can see. And what we can't. He is bigger. Bigger than our mouth, our feet, our hands. He is bigger than our sin. He carried it Himself and threw it in the grave to be locked away forever. I must speak of Him. I must. I cannot hold it in. He is burning in these bones. In this heart. In these hands. In this mouth.
I'm done.
I'm His.
Raise the battle cry.
The revolution has begun.
Will you join too?
Or will you run?
