Amnesia...

“What we are in His sight is all that we are, nothing more nothing less.” - Francis of Assisi

There are two worlds which exist, the imaginary and the Real; for there exists the dream and then there stands the Reality of the Real.

The first is a world which settles like an early morning fog, but ceases when confronted by the noonday sun. It has no substance nor ground on which to stand, nor does it realize the fleeting breath by which it feeds. For it passes by as a moment, not much more stable then cool water in one’s hand. And yet many are subject to her and her ways, having a false confidence; a single delusioned day in which to play.

But yet the second world knows none of these things, for in her very being is grounded Fact and her sure foundation is Truth itself. More real than real could ever be; she stands clearly, distinct and assured without any wavering. Towering high she stretches into eternity far above, and yet she is immovable, anchored down, rooted firmer then the most stable of ground. Definition is defined by her, Existence exists within her, Security is secured because of her …and from her all Life and Love originate. And as for the one who would settle in her shade …they shall obtain far more riches then any master, king, subject or slave.

And so where shall we turn, and to whom shall we live? For the things of this earth are fading away, along with its passions, lusts, greed and pain. But in Him, in Jesus, in the place that is Right, endure the most beautiful of glories, ways, joys and delights. Therefore let us speak what is True, let us do what is Right, and let us live in what is Real …to the glory of our God!

For “whom have I in heaven but You? And besides You, I desire nothing on earth. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.” - Psalm 73:25-26

Much love in the One who exists, to Him be the praise, honour and glory forever and ever; and may it be so. g-
