The lie that “holiness” is dull and boring

God’s desire is to fulfill the deepest longings of our hearts. Really. Jesus said that he came to give us life that was full and bursting at the seams. The only reason we experience holiness as dull and boring is because we never really commit ourselves to it. We’re dipping our toes in at the shallow end of the pool and wondering what’s so great about swimming. God wants us to jump in the deep end and enjoy the exhilaration and freedom of the water of life.
