The Scripture says in Psalm 24, The earth is the Lords and the fullness thereof. God wants us to live a full life, a life where were continually exploring new things, new hobbies, new cultures, new personalities, and new ways of thinking. Its easy to get stuck in a rut to doing the same thing again and again, eating the same foods, listening to the same music, hanging around the same type of people. If were not careful life can become very narrow.The reason many people have lost their enthusiasm and excitement for each day is because they are underexposed. They wont try anything new. They wont go anywhere different. Theres no freshness to their life.But when you get outside of your community, when you get outside your culture you open the door for God to reveal Himself to you in a fresh, new way. When you get around people that are not just like you: people that dont have your sense of humor, people that have different interests, people that grew up in another environment, people that dont have your same skin color, it makes your life broader.New experiences make your life richer, fuller, and more enjoyable. When you open yourself to new things, you open the door for God to bring you new opportunities, and you open yourself to enjoy the full life the Lord has prepared for you. ~Joel Osteen~
