Some see what others, only imagine, or deny, but, God is not partial


Poem Artwork


Perception, leaves us with limited, understanding.


To perceive, God as a myth, a crutch for the weak.


Even those that say they are His, can stop, for a time,


when and where, they please.


Creating a perception gap, that believers, separate thru.


Cause it's not just what you believe, but also what you, do.


 


It's not by works you are saved, but as James, and others, clearly show:


Works, follow salvation, like, re, follows, do, and la, follows, so.


That's why it talks, of pablum, milk, and meat, too.
We're to mature from salvation, right on, thru.


Maturity does include, experience and time, but age, is not the key.


Knowing His will, thru His Word, obeying, thru faith, learning to see;


never saying I've arrived, knowing it's a race, the list goes on. 


But over all, is a need, a thirst, to receive,


His gifts, abundantly!


To whom much is given, much is expected, I expect, is holding many back.


We tend, to keep ourselves, in, our control, and dwell, on what, we lack.


 


But He finishes what He started, and will bring you ever, back;


to a place of revelation, to see it's more of HIM, that you need,
to forge ahead, on the right track.

Meanwhile, miscommunication, will cause you to, mis-steer;  
when one speaks of spiritual truth,
and the other; of religion, mixed with,
worry, doubt, and fear.


Stand firm, in Him, and with all gentleness, proceed; 


Pray for the truth, to be fully, shown.


Stay in humility, and stay, at the foot, of His, everlasting, throne.

ROCK,
a sole Scripture kept running through my mind, as I read your very Inspired and highly provocative write...

'now, we see through a glass darkly...' That is why we must allow the Holy Spirit to guide us into all truth, for He will only reveal what He sees and hears of The Father.

"But God hath revealed them to us by His Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things; yea, the deep things of God." I Corinthians 2:10

It all goes back to trusting in the LORD with our whole heart, rather than leaning on our own understanding.

Exceptional pen, my Brother. Glad to see you posting again!

Love&Hugs&Prayers, Sis
