Upon US

Briefly pray for all who worry, struggle and sign up to the heavens for relief. Is it courageous to share your heart? Knowing fully that public viewing most often brings recrimination, derision and pain. Well, that having been said isn’t that what courage is? Standing up for something, anything, even righteousness such that the masses disagree. Isn’t that the very instance in declaring the relationship with Christ? For who among us may announce this union without first having considered the coming loss of worldly connection. Yes, though we want no credit for this action it is in fact the definition of being brave.

These are not the days to be found in weakness. The maw of this world swallows whole those who cannot stand against the winds of change the ravages of time. What pity and compassion have we for them who stand alone, believing in their hearts that they are sufficient, knowing the opposite in truth? These are not the days of ill found hope or absence thereof. What exists in the heart of man or child without belief and trust in deliverance from the war against God? It seems odd to understand the mind of man who would stand on promontory of hill built on shifting Earth. Believing himself personally protected from the Earthquakes, Wars and fires we all know have come upon us.

In the revelation of fear in self choice is found. For we either fear all that stands before us in threat, capitulation or union. Or we seek the promised understanding of the Hands of Sovereignty upon us, knowing that we are safe within our fear of God. What comes upon a man that he ventures to reveal his interior landscape? What causes us to arrive in life at point where nothing here is ever going to reach to expectation of acceptable or safe? How then are trials viewed in the evidence of surrender? In these moments of my weakness freedom is found. As the illusions are dispelled in the light of my quest to find the throne.

What then is my job when love is to be offered to them that know little or none of it? Am I to be chastised into playing by rules that have nothing to do with the same? For in my surrender to Almighty, this life is no longer my own having been offered and rightfully received by the one who knows my past, present and future when I am ignorant in all. How then may a man be fearful of embarrassment, danger or shame incumbent to a world that uses it to contain the heart of men? These are my stepping stones to grow, rise and endure. In my trials is love encountered a love grander than my own understanding ever could have captured. Rejoice for freedom is upon us found in joyous fear and faith on God.
