Love ....Grace....The Link
I understand that God is BIGGER than the NOW and when we have thoughts about tomorrow he is BIGGER than tomorrow. I realise that if my father could go to any length to make sure I am comfortable, then how much more my heavenly father; the cattle on a thousand hills belongs to him and he’ll give people for my sake + if he could give up his son for me…then he can give me all things and more. What can I say or do…he holds the universe in his hands, places things in order has he chooses to …Aaaargh…Am supposed to be talking about God’s Grace and mercy……but then am at dis point where Paul’s statement ‘’to live is Christ, to die is gain’’ narrows my life and existence to a perspective: that living is all about Christ….not religiously or fanatically and we are supposed to live like the Kings and Priest God called us. ‘’I am crucified with Christ nevertheless I live yet not I but Christ that lives in me…..for the life I now live, I live by faith in the son of God who loved me and gave himself for me’’ ok so what’s more to do now…….
Of late I hear myself say more often than not the phrase ‘’I am tired’’ now it’s not like I carry bricks all day or I work with machines that need manual start-ups. lol…but then I realise that there’s sooo much to this life; people, places, times, seasons, faith, hope, love, heartbreaks, promises, failures, success, expectations, desires, wants…..the list goes on and on…**how person no go tire…lol* I finally concluded that ..Heartbroken, Cheated,….and all dem issues teaches us to un-trust to eventually trust.
There are times that I’d want to get angry and respond…but then I just don’t have the energy for human matta…It’s either there’s something wrong with the people around me or there’s a problem with the society at large…. This problem, I have narrowed down to the LOVE factor…and I’d like to add the global community has not much of it either. My point is there isn’t nothing like the mercy of God, but more is the Grace of God…aargh that Grace makes all the difference. I’ve grown a thick skin, I have learnt to keep shut when am hitching to spit fire over an issue or on a person. Constantly I ask God how he expects me to love a people that have no regard for other humans and claim to love God…the response I get is that every human is an extension of God and should be loved (not fanatically or religiously) but the same way we’ll love Christ,. Am not sure about you; I always try to draw a line between loving someone and being stupid. I have come to realise that there’s a big difference. Loving the way God expects us to is not stupidity….because the Love of God comes with a wisdom that teaches you when and what………………..
Wrapping this entire thing up; If u come pretty close you’d hear me say often ‘’Jesus is coming soon’’ or ‘’…if Jesus Tarries’’ I realise that this statement is a result of the tiredness I complained about earlier(like let’s get this whole earth thing over with and enter a kingdom of peace forever. Lol). What happened to the scripture that says ‘’we should occupy till he comes’’ and then the Love of God will compel us, we can’t say we love God, whom we cannot see, If we do not love the humans we can see. In loving God we tend to become humble; humility attracts the Grace of God (God gives Grace to the humble). This Grace makes us live over life, above life and it makes life easier…..I’d like to imagine it as a smooth sailing…..nobody said there would not be issues that will try popping up…but in his Grace we know we are more than a conqueror. I want to believe the Grace of God attracts the mercy of God when we ask for his mercy….so my entire story about people, love ET all still bulges down to...Loving God…Loving people…Humility…Grace and Mercy. Living in this light with
the Love consciousness will justify that living really is Christ’s.Of late I hear myself say more often than not the phrase ‘’I am tired’’ now it’s not like I carry bricks all day or I work with machines that need manual start-ups. lol…but then I realise that there’s sooo much to this life; people, places, times, seasons, faith, hope, love, heartbreaks, promises, failures, success, expectations, desires, wants…..the list goes on and on…**how person no go tire…lol* I finally concluded that ..Heartbroken, Cheated,….and all dem issues teaches us to un-trust to eventually trust.
