When Will We?

When will we
What if when you looked in the mirror, you didn’t see flaws, but endless potential.
What if suddenly all the baggage you carried around daily was no longer essential?

If you had the ability to demolish even a flicker of anger before it had a chance to breath in victory over your joy.
What if you could distinguish things that may later bring you pain and avoid them, toss them aside, label them “pointless and coy”

What if when you stepped out from your home, you stood ready to take on whatever would happen that day.
What if confidence surged through your veins and whispered of victory, constantly, without doubt or delay?

What if we didn’t lean on our own understanding to figure out life’s problems? What if we believed in something bigger than we could ever be?
What if, because of this something bigger, we looked outside of ourselves and toward the larger picture and by grace we could finally see?

What if we wanted to see others succeed more than ourselves?
What if a life was more important to invest in, than a vacation to some tropical landscape?

What would the world look like, if strength was abundant, if love was unwavering, if eyes were looking to others to meet needs, if fear had no power over us? Who would we be?

Impossible you say? The truth, the scary and exhilarating truth is, it is possible. It is a waiting reality, sitting in a desolate mystery shrouded world, it needs only to be sought.

The question stands, not can we, but when will we?
