Limits

I was just reading Jeremy's post on limits and creativity; some of the things he said and the post he refered to said a lot. They both talked about people allowing their creativity to be limited because they think they do not have the means to be entirely creative whether it be money, time, resources etc. People tend to just let themselves be limited and I think the same is true for our relationship with God. I think there are times when we limit the growth we have with God. There are times when we think we don't have the time, money (tithes) or whatever else. Jeremy was saying when we are limited that is when our uniqueness comes out, our true creativity in a sense. I think when we are limited in means or whatever that is when real faith comes in and we rely on our faith when we are limited in means, but we look for ways to limit ourselves sometimes. By saying, i don't have the time to help out or, I dont have time to read. 10 minutes out of the dayto read the bible isn't too much. I read mine on lunch breaks at work or listent to Christian music on my way home.

Sure we live in a busy lifestyle now, but we can make ways for God to become a part of our busy lives. Driving home from work, to work or wherever else we go, we could talk to God, pray to him, praise his name and listen to Christian based lyrics. There are ways to include God into our lives that doesn't "interfer" with our daily lives which most people think has to happen when you have a faith in God. With God there are no limits, we put our limits on ourselves and make it harder for ourselves to have a strong relationship with Christ, and possibly the people around us.
