The messengers have continued to fly over my home every night I'm outside. A few nights ago, there were so many spacecrafts that flew. 2 nights ago I was reminded that I never do anything alone (my work is helped).

The night the messengers flew and flew and flew, before I went outside, my mind was focused on a puzzling project for my job (I'm a software developer) and when I went outside, I said, "This is gonna be on my mind all night. I'm not gonna get any sleep tonight."

I had even been getting these eye twitches from staring intently at the computer screen for hours. But then the messengers flew, and when they flew, my focus changed. My focus moved to the transformation of my flesh and away from the stress and struggles of problem solving.

I still needed to problem solve (because I still have to pay bills and buy food), but the stress and struggle of it was gone. Those eye twitches that I had for a few days are gone for the most part. And I went to sleep that night and slept like a baby.

Things have really changed the past few days with how I think about and approach the work of transforming and healing my flesh - the Living Resurrection. There has been a bit of clarity and ease that didn't exist before. I don't walk anywhere alone (I am always helped).

When Christ was ready and went searching for people to raise out of the dirt, he didn't go looking for a charismatic salesman (a preacher of any sort) - and he had many to choose from. And as Jewish as his heritage is, Christ went looking far away from Israel.

There is a new covenant, and it is not founded on heritage or lineage or borders. Israel was meant to shine, but they feared the desert, warred their way into a populated place, invented their laws and commandments, and they could no longer remember the simplicity found in God.

One of their prophets (Micah) said to them, "God has shown you what is good. There is nothing more that God requires from us than to be just, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with God."

But there is a new covenant, and it is founded on humanity, justice, compassion, gentleness, and faithfulness. Christ chose to fulfill the poetic words of Ezekiel and "restore the fortunes of Sodom", so that the glory of God would first be established in and through gay folk.
