The type of audience that doesn't necessarily show up because of a need to hear what I had to say for its content, but more for the sake of the opportunity to be "Critical"? As if a Lion that's been waiting on a "Specific" type of prey to pounce on!
I can only assume this is normal when you're out spoken and do try to say something even in a semi-public venue. If I was ever given the opportunity to meet my worst critics face to face my question might be, why do public platforms NOT cause a person to pause before stroking the "Publish" key? To give pause as if asking exactly who's "Behind" those invasive eyes as well exactly how "Attentive" will those ears prove to be?
That very proof being how will what I meditate on somehow affect not only my person, but anyone else who chooses to "Directly" get involved in what has been shared?
As if doing a build "Out" on something in terms of steering, directing of somethings that's not only "Greater" than us all but hopeful of gaining momentum? Especially while trying to steer away from all those otherwise dark places where wisdom finds itself "Under attack"?
Have you ever given deep consideration to what it means to not only serve, but more pointedly 'Serve" only "One"? Having somehow reached the conclusion we're ALL participating in some type of servitude capacity? The consideration of serving only One while living in a world filled with countless out spoken opinions?
Do you think it's possible to ever 'Out Grow" certain fears? What exactly is it that makes certain fears disappear or go away? Have you ever wondered why anyone might be afraid of the type of person who does serve Only One? That is to say without finding you have to "Revert" back to thoughts that have only to do with some type TRADITIONAL religion?
I'm NOT talking about a selfish type of person most are familiar with, but the type of person who somehow seems to "March" to a different beat when opposition hits them from every angle. This Type of person remains True to whatever it is they're convinced they do see beyond each horizon that dawns others may NOT be seeing? Something, someone or some cause that divinely captivates their loyalty?
Serving only One instead of the trying to serve the misleading type of thoughts as if serving MANY at the same time? How exhausting does that even "Sound" in saying it? What exactly is a Win-Win situation?
Exactly HOW MANY could possibly benefit in any situation when there is ONLY one who gets served? One who is served without getting bogged down with the concern over other different SPECIAL INTEREST that somehow take away from the "Original" cause, purpose and "Living" example?
Getting so bogged down you actually do "Lose" sight of your "Self" in the midst of ALL you're "Supposedly" doing? Doing maybe, yet doing it ALL for WHOM? What would you suggest might take "Place" should the proverbial "Self" one day find that self has since been replaced?
To then honestly weigh the thoughts of serving One Lord? Exactly how many others are also then served nearly by "Default" through this type of mindset? What exactly would You consider when you then read or hear, "My burden is easy and My yoke is Light"?
Have you ever stopped to think what some "One" might look like who thinks they have to do it ALL? The type who try to DO everything for every "ONE"? Often times causing other loved ones who are caught up in someone else's sense of success or accomplishment? Others who suffer for all the wrong reasons who are still dependent on this type of person for their immediate Needs?
How would you suggest a person might become "Polluted" by the surrounding world? Can you alone feed ALL those who are Hungry? Does dying while trying to feed them all suggest "Greatness? What if the mindset of merely TRYING were also at the heart of the Christ who KNEW more than any EXACTLY what He was sent to DO and WHY? Does this corrupt world seem to have a replacement standing in the shadow of every ONE who is hungry or who is willing to accept a dollar for doing "Nothing"?
What if Jesus did feed the hungry for no other reason but to take their MINDS off of their Stomachs even if only long enough so they could hear what He momentarily had to SAY to them?
DOES feeding without TEACHING Produce fruit? Only later to blame God when it's ALL been said and DONE? AT what point HAS God truly SHOWN himself without also PREACHING and dispensing His SPIRIT filled words that also PRODUCE? His words that DO contain
the essential SEEDS needed in light of all that TRUE Life is that's also been planted?
As compared to what? Those who truly are "Making" disciples and those who only have feeding programs for the sake of the Glory that truly belongs to God alone? Did Christ suggest making disciples who are Like You and I OR making disciples who are LIKE HIM?
Exactly how MUCH of ALL that You Or I do is seen as if the DOINGS of Christ and How much of what we hope is NOT seen is being seen for ALL that it is NOT with respect to that same Person who is "The Christ"?
As if having a foot in both worlds with little to zero concern for what does somehow CANCEL out what the Beloved of God DO SEE us doing, SAYING or NOT? Who's NOT asking WHY there are NOT more disciples being made as the DIRECT results of ALL the said DOINGS many are claiming GOD is doing through their person here in the earth?
What might any man doubt if a child said to be his own never even remotely started to physically look or act like Him, much less think Like him?
And if GOD is NOT the one doing ALL that does get done in His Name, who then should be blamed in terms of a claim made that has yielded such poor returns on the investment MADE by CHRIST?
Exactly how easy would you suggest it is to not only follow, but somehow get bothers to follow you into a state of near "Oblivion" or obscurity? The same type of place where others ONLY see Misery, Pain, Exhaustion, Hollowed out Dark eyes with bags, Bodies that are worn down to nearly nothing at the end of each day? Bodies moving so much slower than most seem to be ALL because of ALL they are supposedly DOING for others who in turn only end up WANTING more of you or FROM YOU?
The Words of God surely say be "Doers" of the word, but that same bible also says what? To make "Disciples"? Disciples who are not only in this world nut are "LIKE Him in this world"?
Exactly how many people would you suggest would be hold outs in their claims of not only multitasking, but proficiently? The same type who are NOT doing any ONE thing with ALL their heart, ALL their Mind and ALL their strength to include "Listening" or "Hearing" why the word ALL has been emphasized by the Lord?
To then contemplate finding "Rest" amid words such as "Do ALL things as if unto the Lord"?
Many suggest Facing their fears, but what does that truly look like in real time? Is it only a matter of convincing your self it is possible to dangle from a "High" wire while also being possessed by the "Fear of Heights"? Dangling by a rope or wire that's been tested and rated by some certified society to support "X" amount of weight?
Having totally ignored the importance of "Quality Control" and the possibility every single rope or wire put into the field ALL may NOT meet this same standardized testing? What if Quality control only tested every other wire or rope unlike God who disciplines all those he considers to be his own?
His stamp of approval also being what without consideration for the flesh that Counts for NOTHING?
Even further maybe only randomly testing every other "Lot" that leaves production? Exactly how safe would "Knowing" ALL the details make You feel before putting to use the rope or wire in Your hands? Thoughts such as will it Hold? Will it break or fail me at the worst time?
Does this person who does have this type of fear also have need of inspecting or somehow "Testing" the particular cable they've purchased before trusting its "Individual" capabilities?
Another example might be purchasing a ladder that's placed on the market with it's maximum capacity rated at 250 lbs? Only at the most critical moment noticing that little sticker on the top most step? ONLY in that moment conveniently remembering you've recently put on a few pounds and are now 290 lbs?
That said, where does FEAR truly come from if not based on what we may or may NOT know beyond doubt and unbelief? What we choose to ignore OR maybe more importantly ..."Remember?
Have you ever wondered why some people have need of knowing and/or visualizing God in a Gender specific capacity? To then somehow transfer or superimpose this same importance in real time when comparing their own gender specific personage to others we share this world with and God?
Exactly WHEN does from NOW on truly begin if we have NOT also Forgotten? What if the NEW never comes and stays and the OLD lingers and refuses to LEAVE? Who then has failed? God or His words? Who also needs a convenient EXCUSE that always seems to be available on seemingly on DEMAND?
When God says that He as God was reconciling the world to himself, why exactly would those same words NOT somehow Find and include EVERYONE? While also knowing God also prepared Hell in advance of declaring this Good News to the whole world?
2 Cor 5:16-19
So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view . Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. NIV
Have you ever considered exactly WHY a seated "Judge and Jury" has need of being Unbiased in their decisions made when examining the Evidence presented,Why exactly might a sitting Judge have to recuse himself not to mention the removal of jurist who have already reached a conclusion ~
