Experiences: What Do You "See"?



Mark 8: 22-25

 

What you choose to "see" has and will always be determined by you and only you. By "SEE" here I refer to what you choose to become your constant or what you choose to be defined by in your life. For many persons there life experiences has led them to one state of perception and that’s one of doom and gloom with that little bit of hope which can spark a change in there whole existence. For others all they belief is left to do is take the plunge and end themselves.

 

Jesus healed a man once and asked what do you see? The man’s reply was I see men as trees.  What was really happening? The truth of the matter is that often times there are individuals in our lives who touch us in a very special way however we still need another touch, so that instead of seeing things in the wrong way we can see them as they truly appear.

 

As individuals who are streaming along the mechanics of time we all encounter situations which add significant experiences to our to core however there’s no single experience that teaches us everything we need to know. One experience may teach us only how to do the thing while the other may teach us how to use that thing which we have previously learnt to our advantage. Often times it takes years for us to understand the value of our experiences and to truly come to terms with them. Its then that we can start benefiting from what once were guilt ridden, sad, emotional roller-coasters or even moments of tremendous happiness that we didn’t even take the chance to truly relish.


What do you see?

 

I see me the person I am.

I see me the person I ought to be.

I see me but not only me.

I see who I was.

I see who I aspire to be. 

Its all me not who you want me to be.


 

I am free to be because I am me.

I am the very clearest expression of me.

I am what my Creator designed me to be.

I am me, the me that I see within me.

 

 

I may not yet be complete but God is working on me.

I may not be liked but I love me for me.

I may not be beautiful but there’s beauty in me.

I may not be for you but I am for me.

I may not be like you but I am like me.

What do you see? I see me I see who I am 

and who I want and need to be.

Goshen: The State of Rest

As it was in the beginning so shall it be in the end. (Matthew 24:37) We are not facing our first crisis in these times neither will we be facing the last one of this and many generations to come. Yet despite all that is happening around us as the people of God we rest safely and peacefully in Goshen not as fools but as wise aware of the times because the days are evil. Goshen as revealed in the biblical text occurs in Genesis/Exodus as a place of safety; a space where the lands of the enemy could not touch Gods chosen people or where the ten Plagues of Egypt could not enter. Likewise, amidst the current global crisis rested assured that like the children of Israel in Egypt though you are tested and tried there is peace during the storm. Let  not  your heart be troubled:  ye believe in God ,  believe also in me . (St. John 14 v 1) Be comforted in this time of crisis for those around people of God because though the world is in that sort of mode those ...

Land Sharks

Romans 5: 1-5/2 Timothy 4: 6-8   For many persons, the land is as dangerous as the sea because of the many sharks which traverse the territorial areas that is called life. No one can escape them even though they may try because the truth of it encounters with sharks help to add substance to one’s experiences. Life is designed so that sharks are an ever-present danger to test your faith. The Apostle Paul in his writings to Rome opines that tribulation (sharks) leads to patience and patience, experience; experience, hope (Romans 8: 4-3).   Land Sharks appear in many different forms such as people, places and things yet even so we have to push through because we have a resilient nature which lies at our very core, we want to survive; we need to survive. It’s as Charles Darwin puts it that we will adapt rather than choosing to simply no longer exist.  Not all sharks can be conquered or avoided but that does not mean that you will be destroyed because when the great sa...
