Tweets - October 17th - Dialogue

Monologue would have been unacceptable for me. All those years ago when I knocked on God's door, if no one had answered, I would cling to agnosticism or atheism with certainty. I could not bear to hear another man speak to me about God; it was going to be God or nothing.

I wouldn't have been to blame either. "I knocked", "I tried", "No one was there", "If there is a God then God does not answer doors, no matter how hard one knocks."

But here I stand. I knocked once and the door flew open, the wind pulled me in and thrust me to the ground, and I have been astonished ever since. So much effort has gone into fine-tuning this path for me so that I would not stray left or right, so that I would understand the Garden of God (to one day become the Garden of Humanity), and I am so glad.

I don't know what comes next, but there is a lot of work that needs to be done here - none of which will be to maintain the comforts of the status quo. Status quo has meant perpetual injustices, environmental destruction, faithlessness, and slow death on this world, and that's just not good enough for me. But I am patient, and I expectantly wait for the Living God through God's power (which is foolishness to this decaying race). And I am OK with my flesh being used as judgment against this place - a dark thing for those who destroy, and light for those who uplift.
