Seeds

Sometimes, when Yahweh is showing me something, He puts it as a series of "What if" questions. I'm going to borrow a page from His book.

What if your relationship with Yahweh were the only thing that mattered in your life? What if you didn't have to worry about providing for yourself or being a good friend or being a good relative? What if you didn't have to worry about circumstances or experiences, but could spend your entire life simply relating to and communing with Him? What would that look like?

What if there is no good and evil? What, then, would you spend your time doing? Instead of fighting evil and trying to be good, what would you be able to do? What would you be able to concentrate on?

What if your entire life were an expression of the relationship that you have with Yahweh? What if it simply flowed from who you were and who He was and who you were together? What if all that you wanted could truly be found if you "sought only the King?"

Would your life change? Would your expressions change? Would you still be provided for? Would you still love your family? Would you still care for your friends? Would all of these things be... not easier... but better because they flow out of this relationship and existence that you have with your Creator?

Would you spend all of your time trying to avoid pitfalls and certain experiences and trying to climb the mountain to achieve or attain something better or would you simply rest in the being that you are?

Would this not change the world?

Is this not what He Promised?

Is it not now the time for the Kingdom Age?

Why Creation Isn't Waiting For You to Rule and Reign

There's this idea that creation is waiting for the sons of God to take their places and make the world what it needs to be, this idea that some day out there Yahweh will come back and take us to Heaven and reign from His Throne. Once we remember sovereignty and that we are One with Yahweh, we realize that we are the ones sitting on this throne with Yahweh. We also need to remember that time and eternity are One. Time is the instrument of Our growth, and We actually use it to grow eternity. Once we realize these two things, we can see that We are sovereign in our own lives and ruling and reigning from this throne right now. The instrument of Our dominion is Our choices. This is what Paul talked about in 1 Corinthians 3 where he talks about how we each choose what materials to build our lives with. Some choose jewels, some choose clay. I, as the sovereign in my own life, get to decide what materials to build my life with. However, I cannot judge another's life. As each of u...

Pie

Imagine that all the love, affection, and resources (time, finances, emotional space, etc.) that each of us has is a pie. This pie may be larger or smaller depending on capacity and circumstances in a person’s life. Now, in order to be healthy and satisfied, each person must constantly be consuming an entire pie. But, after eating a single slice of our own pie, the rest of our pie cannot satisfy us or give us any nutritional value. What are we to do? We must give ourselves the first slice of our pie. This is self-love or self-care. That first slice imbues all of the other slices of our pie with nutritional value. But, after we have consumed the first slice of our own pie, the rest of our pie will give us nothing if we eat it ourselves. We must give the other slices of our pie to other people. Still, we must consume a whole pie to be satisfied, so others must give to us as well. In a healthy, functioning society and group, it would look like this: each of us eats our own first slice...

Rocks vs. Sand: Discerning Reality from Illusion

I keep saying that Yahweh is all that there is and that anything that isn't of Him isn't Real. You may well wonder, as I did, why we keep seeing things that aren't Real. Sickness, death, poverty, sadness... none of these are in line with Yahweh's order or character, so why do we perceive them? Some might say that we live in a fallen world, but did not Yahshua finish everything on the cross? (John 19:30). If we are to believe Him that it truly is finished, then we can return to His Reality right now. We do not have to wait until we die to go to Heaven. Indeed, we do not even have to die. (1 Corinthians 15:51, John 8:51, John 3:16, etc.)  If you just looked up those verses and rationalized away that they are talking about not dying after you die and go to Heaven (does that really make sense, though?), ask Holy Spirit to show you His Reality and judge it for yourself. I, personally, cannot now understand why Yahshua would say that anyone who keeps His Word would ne...
