... we have heard His voice from the midst of the fire. We have seen this day that God speaks with man; yet he still lives. ~ Deuteronomy 5:24
As we walk through life we see one another. This does not change the fact
while, if we are fortunate enough, to know the bottom of our own hearts,
we can never see or know that naked conscience of another. We can
know of others, but in God's own image, we all maintain autonomy unique
to the psyche of self. To see God is to know of Him, and respond to this
two-way call from the depths of our bottom desires. It is a call to mutually
connect in the holiest of pure unimpeded caring; absolute submission.
This defines a moment, and a test, as marriage reflects this ultimate
human achievement, the genuine commitment over foolish fleeting's.
The magic of love is found in freedom's core, joyously loving others.

You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. ~ James 5:8
Influence is only as good as it results in positive change and upwelling
thoughts to inspire life's progress. It can be a challenge to rely on things
and or people with all the conflicts, and swirling desires enmeshed in
accusations, as well as denials. Time is a creation to test patience in truth,
and reveal individual hearts in trouble. How we respond declares what
we depend upon, ourselves, or a higher sense that knows better than
we ever could. Pure thoughts void of animosities can only be born,
and arise, from the love that extends from without from within. To be
full of self neglects this greater sense of emptying back to God,
and His reason for creation; to retrieve honest souls.

Each of us reaches out to hold on to something, which includes both
the tangible and intangible. What we seek declares who we are; the
dichotomies that divide those good and evil battles from within. For a
heart to flourish in the light, one must hear that higher call where birds
sing, and the sun rises on all life. To meet that moment, caring for those
closest holds more relevance than distant anchors of disgust, which
may tend to dismiss and or stumble upon those said closest.
Hearts dance to the beat where love cancels hate.

acceptance of a liars lies. This is why His word has come to us.

Awake to God reveals the Greatest in Life
● God desires our inward heart over outward masks
● God dwells with all humble spirits who mourn
● Our revival is where faith conquers all
● Fear is short of faith, and in His strong promises
● Absolute love for God describes the top of character
● God hears all hearts who honestly seek Him
● Mercy and truth are the high waters of a heart
● God's salvation plan forgives obedient hearts
● Call for higher faith in Christ over judging others
● Deliverance comes by earnestly following His word

● Faith is confidence in the eventual outcome
Heaven holds the heart of God for the faithful.
Opinion and bias guide each sinking or lifting moment in all civilizations,
where inevitably they fail to remember past stumbling's, and revert
to primordial lusts with little respect for decency. Rebellion holds
widespread anger crimes running rampant as the people cry for freedom,
in the blindness of countless liars. Noble actors evaporate in the fog.
The curtain always falls on those who cannot see the stage.
Unfortunately, humanity has the infectious disease of careless
forgetfulness, especially when societies want to set aside
and or blame the tyranny they believe oppresses them.
Crucibles of hate tarnish the edges as we try to climb out of mediocrity.
As God fades from our memories, we have no excuse when we lose
ourselves to the idols of our creation. Without sensibility, unity is only
a dream, and where all seeking quests have ridden for ongoing eons.
People can only find when they come to know. Ignorance has little
foundation, and more often eases into corruption. God gave us the
tools to gain the best outcome, if our choices are wise enough, and our
hearts are lovingly patient enough, to stand for His truths of character;
then our children may well in fact survive to meet another day.
Godless, heartless societies have no chance of survival.
In our quest to achieve, direction of thought defines our essence.

"... Therefore by their fruits you will know them. Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." ~ Matthew 7:16-21

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." ~ Matthew 5:16
Each of us holds a talent no others possess.
To find this quality, and use it to bring about benefits, for self and others,
is the best a soul can achieve. Nirvana is a quest in obtaining personal
awareness. It is not a competition with others but a honing of personal
excellence. Jobs in the mundane world can sour a soul in recognizing
what is finest in given gifts, especially when drawn into apathy and
cynicism. To be in front of the war of social indifference, passion must be
ignited to pursue those hobbies or aptitudes meant to fulfill living one’s life.
Too many leave with no legacy, for they themselves
never find the meaning of their greatest purpose.
Without personal purpose, life becomes lost. Love is taken away when anxiety is filled with depression.
And let our people also learn to maintain good works, to meet urgent needs, that they may not be unfruitful. ~ Titus 3:14

● Increasing in the knowledge of God
In the vast arena of life choices are made, and must be made,
if spiritual salvation is to enter a soul’s existence. To dismiss
consciousness of conscience is to the detriment of a soul. Oblivion
is guaranteed for the dishonest and unfruitful as they pillage the land.
Eons of man have chosen lies over truth. The children, struggling to
become adults, have suffered for lack of truth without honest mentors.
Institutions are rooted in the mired condoning of lies to boost selfish
monetary profits. Corporations instruct employees to lie, the works of
greed. Without honesty, the light only dims for the hope of freedom,
where love can flourish.
Truth is found by believing in God’s Word of Life

Comfort comes when love of God is supreme

God cannot be tempted by evil
nor does He Himself tempt anyone

when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin;
and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death
