Gifts and Treasures

The greatest gift forgiveness and a chance. That love expressed for my acceptance catapulted me into an expression of the same self-elevating practice of love and forgiveness even to them who least wanted or deserved. The gift of love and forgiveness promotes the collection of treasures stored in heaven that shall never rust, dissolve or be taken. When treasure is found by use of God’s gifts it elevates our desires and character to a resemblance of His constitution.

I may throttle and check the world. I may control every person through sheer will, fear or deceptive authority or I may seek opportunity to watch them rise above their own limits and potential. Could I forgive myself for the misuse of my gifts to fulfill self gratification or achieve some measure of comfort and means? There is no victory in grudge and continued focus on the wrongs achieved by others, especially when we are often errant in the moment. Oft it is best to let go pursuit of objective to assure that those who you’ve been given rise beyond the constraints of those frequent, instantaneous flutters.

Fly, be yourself and if I cannot assist then I certainly will not see you restrained by my words, thinking or unwise leverage. It is not simply a duty but the beating pulse within heart and mind. Time for me to forgive and relieve myself of the pressures I have been storing in the cart and pack I’m carrying. These feet were meant for peace and to seek, find and share that rest with all that I have the rate opportunity to meet and know. Playing saint is a sad affair. The sour taste of bile and foam have everlasting consequence.

At some point a man may give no more to the world when all has been left on the glass sea of the Holy of Holies. Walking held in God’s Hand is the optimal position for a man who loves His Father more than anything. This is something unusual and though poets and artist will achieve the grand fulfillment of love the surrender and obedience to God resists comparison. Yet finds itself beyond universal boundary and promise of worldly or romantic hope. This is that priceless era where man may do things beyond himself, though forgotten by the world find the streets of gold by God’s side for everlasting.

What I am being offered is of tremendous value, so go and store it up for yourself as the guiding purpose of a heart that would know life and love. I seek treasures in heaven. The gifts to obtain and attain this plateau are those that lead me closer to Christ likeness. Lately, I have been struggling to measure up to worldly expectation and finding emotions, thought and heart that risks the bitterness of the waxen moon of in-authenticity. Feet on paths that diverge in objective opportunity, my groin being pulled opposite direction. I cannot both tell you what you want to hear while singing the tunes of dedication to the things of God Almighty in following direction and purpose.

Please know that the love I offer does not accommodate word or season but exists in perpetuity. I do not simply love a treasured human for sake of beauties review or chilling heat of the heart. You are God’s most precious moment. Seeing through His eyes and hearing His calming call means that I cannot look, hear, touch or relegate this interaction from the dead senses of Calvary’s perished man. I have risen with Christ as part of the Living Body and may not consider the aspects of failure, victory or achievement through the expired lens of my lost humanity. The gifts and treasures to which I am led, commanded and blessed demand an alternate approach. A method that starts are the end of time and seeks passage and promise beyond. Living this life out seeking its greatest accolade and passion is ignoring that this is not the place of my end but only the beginning.
