God is recognizable. When we connect with All That Is, presence is revealed to us in all areas of our lives. It is as though a world in black and white gets infused with color. God wants us to live in the purples and greens, dance with the pinks, and sing with the reds. We sometimes see coloring as a childhood activity literally and figuratively. We seek it as a sign of maturity that we are able to distinguish the black and the white with great efficiency. Then there is the grey. The opposite of black and white is often portrayed as grey but maybe that is because we haven’t been willing to witness all the color variations. Just the fact that we label it all as either/or tells us that we are still in the black or white frame of mind. God invites us to be witnesses and experimenters in all the colors, the greys, and the blacks and whites. Every color and shade is a part of our full living experience if we want it to be. God can used all things for good.
My prayer for us is the courage to open our eyes and witness all the colors of life and ask God how we can use them to create our life’s experience.
If it did not matter if you colored outside or inside the lines, what colors would you use to walk through your day today? Share in the comments.
