Tweets - August 21st - God Wants

3 spacecrafts flew overhead at the same time in a triangular formation (12 , 6, and 9 o'clock positions from my point of view). This occurrence happened twice, on 2 different nights.

The spacecraft at 12 o'clock slowly became bright and slowly dimmed, then the spacecraft at 6 o'clock slowly became bright (with the same timing and luminous intensity) and slowly dimmed while the spacecraft at 9 o'clock dimmed out of sight.

There is nothing that happens to us that God does not want to happen to us. Saying, "God allows" is an incomplete statement. It is always true that "God wants", and in some cases, "God is doing".

Though this certainly does not mean that God delights in all things, but it does mean that sometimes gold (in its stubborn refusal to repent through loving justice) has to be burned and submerged so it can be refined and transformed into something valuable and eternal.

The message of the 3 spacecrafts, in summary, is that God truly is Love. There is nothing that happens to us that God does not want to happen.

For those of us who walk with God, there is nothing to worry about; there is nothing to look toward and be anxious of; we don't have to worry about what we will say or have; we don't have to worry about what we will do; we don't have to fear what is unknown to us; we never need to plan a siege, or consider our defense, or setup a scheme.

We are wounded because God led us in the direction to be wounded. We are sick because God planned and gave us over to sickness. God's hand is on us and with us, and we are never required nor expected to be afraid.

I know, it sucks - but it only sucks for a moment in time, and the Garden will be better off for it, I promise (according to God's promise). 

(Regarding all these things, I'm assuming we are not pursuing injustice, in which case we are simply receiving exactly what we deserve.)

We are who we are - we do not need to lie to ourselves about ourselves and we never need to plan to be someone or something else.

Understand yourself; do good in spite of your brokenness, and don't seek to be "unbroken". God repairs what we cannot repair for the sake of the Garden and the Glory of God - you just be yourself and pursue what is both loving and just.

As for those who cannot walk with God, you know the portion God has given to you (though you don't accept it as such).

There is everything to fear; there are a thousand things to worry about; a million things to consider - what will you say, what will you do, what will you eat, what will you wear, where is your help?!

Dig deep in yourself for your hope; prepare your defense; go get as many guns as you can; fortify your buildings with sand and steel; drape bedsheets over your wives and daughters; get ready to fight fight fight!!!

God is giving you exactly what God wants you to have; and fear, sadness, and anger have been made your portion. It is how God is saving you and the Earth.

There's that conflict in me where I see someone I've loved a long time in such awful pain, and I am both sad and joyful - sad because of their brokenness, and joyful because God is saving their life through destruction.

But I would so much rather you walk with God so that you can be saved without being destroyed; so I might receive double joy (in my selfish desire).
