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 - June 23rd - Patience and Care

Over the last few months, spacecrafts have been flying overhead almost every night I've been outside.

Lots of talk on humanity as people come to know God.

God has been a friend to me lately. The same could not be said in the past where I was weighed down by the severity of God's judgment (which isn't very friendly).

But God has been a friend who requires patience and gentle care (which is what I received first before God ever received it from me). And though there is still that deep greatness that is God, God's gentleness in God's careful touch has moved me to befriend God.

This race requires an intertwining of patience and care. What we have instead are systems (educational, economical, etc.) that are built on the philosophy of "every man for himself" and all of its anxieties, stresses, depressions, and devastations that would inevitably result.

Last night, I mentioned to heaven that just because someone walks with God doesn't mean that they would no longer internalize "every man for himself" (being so afraid of the world and of destruction), and a spacecraft became luminous and shone SO VERY brightly.

I'm under the impression that many of you are soon going to trip, stumble and fall. You will land where God wants you to land. When you are in your place and you look up, you will see a door already opened for you - you will not need to knock.

In that hour, you will be like a tomato vine with many suckers that need to be trimmed and pruned so that you will eventually become a sturdy stem producing beautiful and plentiful fruit. You will be forgiven, and your flesh will declare your forgiveness. Patience and care.

I imagine that some will walk through the door, sprouting up, as violent wolves and venomous snakes, and others gentle goats and sheep - but it won't matter at the end of it all. You will all follow children and be as honest and as trusting and as gentle as they are.

Every bit of effort will fall from heaven and go into your wellbeing (which is also the wellbeing of God's Garden), to promote your humbling, your gentleness, your faithfulness, your honesty, your integrity, and your way of care. "Love does", says the deeds of the Living God.

Isaiah was someone who walked with God for a long time, and he said these things beautifully, speaking first of Christ and the fruit of Christ (who seek nuance, detail, and truth in all things), and then speaking of you (humanity) in God's Garden:

There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.
And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.
And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord.
He shall not judge by what his eyes see, or decide disputes by what his ears hear, but with righteousness he shall judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall kill the wicked.
Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins.

The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them.
The cow and the bear shall graze; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the viper's den.
They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

Isaiah chapter 11
