MORNING THOUGHTS ☕️:

DEFINE: to set forth the meaning of. To fix or lay down clearly or definitely. To determine or fix the boundaries of.

The only One who can DEFINE you is the One who designed you.

Let’s not DARE allow the world define us. Read the definition again. People LONG to define you + me. It makes them feel more comfortable and safe. And sometimes, we long to define ourselves for that very same reason. But it’s a trick. Don't fall for it. It puts boundaries and constraints around something that is supposed to be ever growing and expanding. Even trying to define what God is doing in our lives can constrain it.

Let it be.

When we follow Jesus, we must get used to being undefinable. He was. People couldn't figure Him out. Was he a healer? A teacher? A prophet? A Son of God? They were dying to define Him.

Today. Let’s not define. Let’s just go with what is. Enjoy the process. Let others wiggle in their seats because they can't figure out what box to put us in but for goodness sakes...let’s not hop in a box because of it.

Who does God say you are? Child, that is the only definition that matters.
