Even If


What if all color was removed from the world (excluding the debatable B&W)? Would the core beauty of creation still remain? My response is this: it would still be beautiful even if color was nonexistent.

Let me explain … The same concept mentioned above can be drawn into the context of a follower of Christ … When you think of the words “what if” what comes to mind? Often times, the fear of the unknown accompany “what if” thoughts. Most everyone has likely encountered these types of thoughts. In fact, you've probably had some come to mind today. 

I’ve begun asking myself, if the worse case scenario were to play out in my life, where would God be? I’ve realized that God would still be there even if I hit rock bottom. He loves me the same. 
Having worked through this question, I have been able to move past my fear of the "what if."  My faith should by no means be solely placed in people, places, or things. My faith will always remain in God who is there regardless of what I do and calls me His friend.

So, even if all color is removed from your world, even if the worst thing possible happens to you, God will still be right beside you, helping you see the beauty that remains. Let’s tell fear who’s boss and let’s place our faith in God! 

"For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands, for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." ~2 Timothy 1:6-7
