Boat On The Water: Will You Stay In Or Dive Deep?

    Okay, so the other day my mom and I were walking into the mall, and I don’t know, but recently I’d been wondering..how would God like seriously look. You know, like when I was younger and things I always pictured God as white…because I was white…I don’t know I guess all the pictures I’d ever seen of Jesus had always been white…but then when you like seriously dive into the history…Jesus was a Jew…so He’d be more like Arabic descent, etc. 
    I don’t know, so anyways I was telling my mom that I thing I figured out how I would picture God… just to have an earthly idea, because I know that I seriously won’t know until I get to Heaven. Now I could picture Him as each person I meet. I thought about how like…if you were to mix all people together that that’s what God would look like since He is everyone’s Father right. 
    Okay, but anyways, I was telling her that I think that if you were to mix every single race…Chinese, Saudi Arabian, Sudanese, German, Australian, Mexican…I mean if you were to mix every skin color, every eye design, every nose shape, every face structure…I think that’s what God would look like..a mix of every color, a beautiful shade of ALL COLORS combined together….so that His skin and His appeareance are a reflection of all of us…because we’re a reflection of Him…right? What a beautiful picture…:)

So, I’ve decided to make this blog, because I’ve been dying to get my thoughts out somewhere…share my experiences…think deep…think about God….
So anyways, this title is exactly what this cite is about…One day, while sitting on the top of the roof in Cartagena, Colombia, I looked out upon the sea, and I had this image; it was a boat. So this, is the analogy:
Many people don’t understand me…I’m not you’re norm….you see many people don’t get out of the boat.
Life is like a boat on the water. A person stays in their boat…and looks upon the sea, but only sees the things on the surface. They don’t see anything deeper, all they know is their boat and the surface, but there are very few who get out of their boat and dive deep…where you find treasures, and adventures, life is not boring like staying on the boat, instead it’s a vast adventure…so will you stay in your boat…where you’re secure and don’t have to worry…or will you take the leap and dive in, to a know a beautiful and vast world?
