“As we age, many of us stop believing and start assuming. We stop living out of right-brain imagination and start living out of left-brain memory. And we put 8-foot ceilings on what God can do.” -Mark Batterson
In his book, Wild Goose Chase, Mark Batterson list assuming as one of six cages that keep us from living the spiritual adventure God has destined for us.
God doesn’t fit into my box of what I think is possible, and I should not assume that I know what He can and can’t do in the World or in my life. Instead, I need to use the imagination He gave me, the possibilities of what He can and will do.
I need to stop looking at life logically and start imagining; asking big “What If” questions. After all, nothing is impossible with God.
I don’t want to limit God with my own assumptions. I am going to do a better job at putting the imagination God gave me to work! I want my right-brained faith to be exploding with bright, exciting, seemingly impossible- possibilities!
Is your faith left-brained or right-brained?
