An Introduction

I was raised Christian (Pentecostal). One Sunday, when I was about 15 years old (in the year 1994 or 1995), I was in church with my mother, ...

Tweets - March 15th - Open Before Heaven

Everything is plain and open before heaven, nothing is hidden. To be counseled and guided and helped by people who've walked with God for such a very long time, and yet never having to face judgment or condemnation from them when I've done things I knew were destructive - it speaks volumes and it is humbling. My lovers are strangers, and my lovers are close friends.

I've been thinking about feelings of guilt (due to the maltreatment of others) and feelings of shame (due to dishonest deeds), and the place of guilt and shame in the Garden of God. I imagine that there will be people called who have done irreparable harm, where restorative justice is impossible through human means (we cannot always repair what we destroy).

These people will be people who have killed others, raped others (women, children, and men), violently beaten and assaulted others. When God does forgive a person, that person is altered through no planning, efforts, or expectations of their own. The changes that will occur will be emotional, intellectual, and physical. As such, that person is set free (or rather put on parole, which separates them from the prisoners exiled in this dark world). Turning something ferociously foul into something faithful, pursuing everything good and decent, it requires God's hand and the dedication of community.

Such severity; such people will come out of the womb in humility and quietness, not a lick of pompousness will be found in them. I certainly did not come out of the womb in humility and quietness, but I have never been anyone's terror - so there was room for pompousness; these people will have no such room. When the tiniest bit of light from God is far greater than your darkest darkness, it will humble you and force you to the ground.

Regarding the Garden of God, we require open public sessions of accountability, where we're able to confess and share - not to be judged or condemned - but to help build, help guide, and help uplift. We require open public sessions where we can vent all our feelings of anger and helplessness regarding those who've harmed us and all our anger and frustration with God - not to be judged or condemned - but to listen to one another, and to bring to light what is hidden. These are our weaknesses and not our strengths; our weaknesses and our struggles are a light and a lesson to us all, and God will be glorified through them all (we will watch God repair the irreparable).

Acts of "helping people attain what they need", was a message confirmed to me by angels a few nights ago; such acts are the Garden of God.

I was speaking to heaven last night about people sitting in seats of judgment and condemnation, and a spacecraft became very luminous and shined very brightly.

You know, a little judgment can destroy the innocence of a child - and this world has compounded "little judgment" on top of "little judgment" on top of "little judgment". Look out your window, are you proud of what you constantly help create?
