Periphery

How does the fly know to seek relative safety at the boundaries of my sight?  What is it that I cannot see, not those things which are manifest in mirror’s glimpse, but those things remaining just outside the event topography of my visual capacity?  What potency does love possess beyond its influence in every apparent relationship?  How does it impact the definition, understanding and malleability of my universe?  Does my giving freely into God’s Love transform the entire sphere of my wake within this world and every plane to which I have random, chaotic or intended connection?  How is my spirit changed by God?

Is the Love of God my expression of power within this law constricted world?  Can my expression of love for those people, like myself whom are undeserving of such care, a valid demonstration of authority, strength, understanding, wisdom, hope and force unavailable to those outside of relationship with God?  Does this love, which remains at the periphery of my understanding yet colors every interaction, circumstance and belief remain the basis of my authoritative kinship to God?  Am I a prince and a priest, loving His sheep as God intended or do I seek merely to preserve my own legacy, carefully calculating the historical record of my passage through this one way dimensional transition, life?  What is it that I do not know but just take for granted, that in true understanding my view of everything would be fundamentally and definitively transformed?

I am so limited in myself, yet limitless in Christ Jesus, such that my comprehension and approach to “impossibility” is uniquely exchanged for functional understanding of infinity within a finite space.  Can I comprehend a God with no beginning, no end, no controls, limits or laws without having first asked for, accepted and dwelt upon the Love of God through Christ?  Lord, yes, I am inadequate to the tasking, yet, I see now how truly unimportant that factor becomes.  Even my understanding is a conduit for Your limitless capacity to Create, Renew and Orchestrate Glory and Righteous Victory.  I am in awe of You and through the Grace of Your Mighty Love I understand Just how awesome, Awesome really is.  I love you God in the name of Jesus Christ my Shepherd and King.
