    Conundrums

    The bible teaches: if you lose your life your find it.

    Christians give.

    The world takes. Grows fat and rich.

    Christians are persecuted, betrayed, they bless those who curse them, pray for those who despitefully use them. Or try to, out of reverence for Christ.

    The heart of the true Christian is servanthood. Like Adonai.

    The world seeks to dominate, to repress, to be served.

    Who ends up poor, privated, subject to judgment?

    Who ends up comforted, rewarded, forgiven, loved, exalted?

    The Christian gives away her life

    The Christian loses her life

    The Christian pours out her life

    And in giving, is blessed. And in giving, finds herself. And in giving, finds the Messiah's heart. And in giving, receives, for we reap what we sow.

    Sow wisely. Water generously. He will magnify and make things grow.

    Lose temporality, gain eternity.

    Lose your life, even if it break your heart, for you will find your life and your heart will be healed. He heals the broken-hearted.

    I suppose those with intact hearts don't need Him. Those who are rich, well-fed and comforted, have no need of Jesus.

    I need Him more today, than the Day I decided to follow Him with all my heart. And, He is here. He draws near when He sees our hearts reach timidly for His. Amen.

     

     

    O God, you are my God

    And I will ever praise You

    O God you are my God

    And I will ever praise You

    And I will seek you in the Morning

    And I will learn to walk in your ways

    And step by step you'll lead me, and I'll follow you all of my days...

     

    Even so, come Lord Jesus. I'm watching, and waiting for You. I will tarry with You, one more hour...
