“God went for the jugular when He sent his own Son. He didn’t deal with the problem as something remote and unimportant. In his Son, Jesus, He personally took on the human condition, entered the disordered mess of struggling humanity in order to set it right once and for all. The law code, weakened as it always was by fractured human nature, could never have done that. The law always ended up being used as a Band-Aid on sin instead of a deep healing of it. And now what the law code asked for but we couldn’t deliver is accomplished as we, instead of redoubling our own efforts, simply embrace what the Spirit is doing in us.” Romans 8:1-4 MSG
Good morning, EmbracedOne,
Simply embrace. Don’t you love that?
The Creator has chosen to work in you. By sending His son, His work in you and me has begun.
The addictions.
The pride.
The selfishness.
The hate.
The lust.
The jealousy.
The critical spirit.
The greed.
“I can heal it”, He is saying to you and me. “All of it. You can start fresh, today.”
He sent His Son. And, by that sending, love came down. Allowing that love to dwell within. By giving Him ‘all-of-me’ access, He allows us to see through the games. So, if you and I were to sit down together, and look in further, not through the thinking mind, but through the God’s-Child-heart, I’ll tell you what I will see: light. Bookoos of light. Light like the sun, like the wonder of the moon and stars … all places … streaming rays of sweet beams out your eyes.
Oceans of love that radiate from your heart. And, peace. When you look deep enough, the terror calms, and the peace that He has given is found at the core of your being.
How do I know? Because, once you become God’s-child, Light sees Light.
Love sees Love. You don’t have to hide the dark parts anymore, because His love-struck Spirit rises.
Right here, this moment in time and space, you and I are swimming in a sea that is pregnant with possibility. God Almighty has set you here with purpose and longs for hearts to know it. It is why He sent His Son – to make a way to birth new Life in you and me. Open your beautiful heart to what is here, ready to take you His place of higher healing, higher calling.
Wake up.
Open.
Go.
