Are You A Chameleon?

"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."  Romans 12:2 NIV

We tend to think that to be a chameleon means that we blend into our surroundings, but that is not always true.  God created some chameleons to stand out.  In doing so, these lizards are actually defending against their enemies.
I believe that God created and challenges us to do the very same thing.  When we no longer conform to the world, we actually engage the enemy.  It is only in engaging him, the one who seeks to destroy us, that we can truly begin to defend and claim the life that God has planned for us.  If we blend in, we are not a threat to the enemy's plan, nor are we a productive member of the Kingdom.  
I challenge you to be the chameleon... no longer hiding and conforming, rather boldly claiming who you are and why you can stand out.
