Reckless Living
A few days ago, my 18-year old son Cameron and I were driving to church. He was driving and the weather was terrible. It was rainy, foggy and cold. I was getting a little tense at his reckless driving and I said something to him about slowing down. He said, “Dad, the world would be a better place if people lived more recklessly,” he said as he was swerving between two 18-wheelers. What a profound statement I thought.
We need to live a reckless life with nothing holding us back from God’s potential in our lives. I am the worst because I live by the rules and rarely take chances. But we will never be challenged if we don’t become a little more reckless. After my heart slows from the morning commute, I am going to ask God to give me courage to be more reckless in building His church.
Love this...thanks for the reminder!! I am really pumped to learn from you through this blog...thanks!
