Dare to Conform

I was thinking how funny it would be if trees when they are growing are concerned to be different and want to make the most creative fruit. Or birds boasting about being the weirdest birds because of this and that. Or a fish holding a slogan encouraging the other fish to go against the flow... And yet it is so diverse, so beautifully in a varied harmony. I wondered why... They just are, they just live, they just carry themselves as they should... This made me remember that he first name God named himself was "I AM". Of course, He is He, He acts according to His nature...But for us people it is more complicated. We have inherited a rebellious spirit, we have two natures... And we are offered the choice to be in I AM just be in Him and then we will flow like rivers and sing like birds and nourish like tree, we are offered the freedom to conform to the Unconformist  or we can just be concerned in  who we are and loose our identity in the quest of it, in the quest of being unique and in each move, taking a step further from the Creative, the Creator... 

The Lord knew that we have this natural desire to be who we are and He knew that we will loose track and think that it is in the things of this world, in following what the king of this world does that we will think that we are finding ourselves... That is why He came and set an example for us, an example that obeying is actually innovation, death is life, meekness is strength... dare to follow, dare to conform  it is in this kind of conforming that you are creative... It is not in things of this world that you will be marked out those are never new... Dare to be the same as Him who Is. He does not grow old, He is never outdated. He is the source of all New and Beautiful... Dare to conform to Him who is worthy!
