I’m sick and tired of my Christianity being a Facebook status that doesn’t affect the way I live most of the time. I want my faith to define me and be all over every single part of my life and my identity. If people have to ask if I am a Christian, then I have failed to live out what I believe. They should know by how I act and speak.

I’m sick and tired of being an incognito believer in Christ. I want my true God-colors to shine wherever I am, whatever I’m doing, whoever I’m with. I want to stand out, even if that means standing alone.

I’m sick and tired of being like everyone else and settling for status quo. I want to be so radically different that people notice that there’s something different in me and that something (or Someone) is Jesus. I want my actions, my words, my status updates and posts, to reflect and compliment my faith and not be a contradiction of that faith.

I’m sick and tired of being moved so many  times, but not doing anything with it. I want to be more than moved, as the song by Michael Boggs says. I want to be motivated to act out my love for Christ and show it to the world by my deeds of kindness and compassion.

I am never sick and tired of grace. Grace works every time. Grace wins every time. Grace is changing me, making me more whole and alive and radiant in Christ day by day. Even on those days when I can’t see it.

Thank You, Jesus, that You never have or ever will give up on me or stop making me more like You. Your love for me is too powerful to leave me unaffected and unmoved and uninspired. I want more of that. I want more of You.

Please come.
