It is one thing to exist and another thing entirely to live. Existence is feeble, dreary, and safe. Living is adventurous, beautiful, and daring.You see, a life separated from Jesus Christ is no life at all, without  Him we are merely existing. Our world, our reality, is bleak. It is plagued by the expectations of others. It is weighed down by the insecurities of man. It is made dark by the fear that dwells inside of us. But as we embrace Jesus Christ, our darkness is illuminated, our fears are swept aside, our insecurities are replaced with confidence, and our expectations of ourselves and others shift. When we walk towards Jesus we replace bleak existence with daring life, we exchange the darkness of man for the light of the Savior. Now in a world that is so accustomed to existing, I ask you, do you dare to live?
