Getting Creative

A gigantic piece of paper.
A mountain of crayons.
A gigantic pile of markers.

And the question, "What type of life would you like to color today?"

I heard this story at a worship conference I went to a few weeks ago. A father laid out paper, crayons and markers, and asked his son the question typed above.

And the speaker talked about the fact that Jesus wants to have friend-conversations with us. 
Not just servant-to-master discussions. 
Not just discuss-the-deep-things-of-scripture meetings.
But sit-down-and-look-me-in-the-eyes-and-tell-me-your-dreams chats.

He wants to dream with me. He wants me to be open about the things that I really want. The deep-down secrets. The I-want-this-so-bad-it-hurts dreams. 

The Creator of the Universe is wanting to sit down with me and say, "What kind of life would you like to dream up together?"

And that? That made me excited!

Very.
