In the beginning the light was in the heart of the Father and He sought to share it with those He loved.  Patience, in perpetuity knowing that all moments are the same and that choice and action are the only catalysts.  Grieved, by what would be done against His name the Spirit granted mercy.  Living in us to instruct the teachable, temper the wise, discipline the  wayward and direct the dedicated.  All from the love, the wish to share the light and the understanding that we would want to know our Father.  He paved the roads with solid stone, allowing those against Him to seed this solid way with obstacle, knowing that test produces character, relationship and hope.  Hope in our limited understanding of the light, knowing that even those things not yet seen are better than that which we have created.

Then the enemy cried foul, when we got to see and know the Light, through His Word and dedication to an invitation He had been telling us about for centuries.  Knowing that some would see His Glory and Love for us by the foreknowledge He shared.  Luck a strong predictor but not chance when each declaration was followed with precision.  Prophecy is God’s whisper of His coming, His existence and hope eternal.  Never alone, he nurtured, protected and shaped us even when deists believed Him removed from His creation, He still intervened.  Do you know this God who has waited for eternity to spend another eternity with us?

Let me tell them of Your Glory Father, let me not take the Gospel in vain to waiting ears only to have it trodden because of my faulty commitment.  Let this heart be true, filled with the brightest light shared with us to guide us back to Your presence.  I am tired of each failure, but know this to be irrelevant and useful at the same time.  Teaching me through conscience, yet somehow not my judgment as the Heart of Your Spirit shapes me to Your Good Pleasure.  This world a dichotomy of glory and upset, unfulfilling yet beautiful in its promise and reminder of Your Invite.  Grant me stay on the path, never turning away from the Light that has always been sufficient.  Let my own eye be clear and my own heart be true, leading me back to You, my destination.  Shared eternity.  Bless Your Holy Name King Jesus.
