True Godliness is caring enough to confront and this is my motive for challenging un-pure religion and its god. my expereince with religion used to make me feel unwell and unfit in God’s eyes. Pure 'religion' reminds me that God is pursuing me and all his children and longing to bring all of us back to his flock right here, on this side of heaven.
The best setting to preach is in the marketplace and that does not always require words. Thank God, actions speak louder than words because with all these interpretations and expressions and isms embedded in even a simple words as no or why, I would be thrown out wherever I set up camp.
Now a days when I am given that look of ‘what are you talking about’, that’s when I keep talking because I know that I am making sense, I am just not talking the language that makes sense to the 10 percent of the brain that relies on superficial communication. Some people just do not understand me and so they often tell me how strange I am. But it gets even better when I do not say anything because they do not know what to say or how to handle my silence.
Back in the day I would stop talking because I believed I was really crazy and schizophrenic when all this time the negative self just praised me for giving in to my false self.
No wonder I felt like God had forgotten about me! Well he had to set the record straight and he told me one day, watch me turn your scars to stars but first I have to work on your attitude and refine your character. When I am finished with the world will know that I have the best touch! . It took so much longer than I imagined but as I blogged earlier that is what short cuts and feeling defeated do but it was all worth it! So even when I feel fear I keep on doing what I believe God has appointed me to do in the market place and in order to not take the credit I have to apply these same principles to my life first.
“If the Lord does not build the house, the work of the builders is useless; if the Lord does not protect the city, it does no good for the sentries to stand guard.” Psalm 127: 1
God’s yoke is easy and that is why I hitch my burden to his wagon and enjoy the ride. Any other way is summed up in Psalm 127:2a: “ it is useless to work so hard for a living, getting up early and going to bed late.”
Step by step God leads me as I continue to march on as his soldier in this world.
