The Bible is HIS story

The Bible is HIS story. It is a jewel to be looked at from every angle, not just our own. We need others to help bring the story alive as we all enter together into HIS story as it continues throughout eternity. The Bible is like the crown jewels all combined into one glorious display. Now, here is the key. Christians are the light of the world, so Jesus says. We need the light in us or else we are dark. If Jesus is the light of the world, then only He can shine His light through us. A person who does not have the light is darkness. So when the dark looks at the crown jewels, dark sees nothing! Nothing. Nothing is revealed where there is no light. The opposite is true for those who have Jesus, the light of the world, emanating from them. The light shines on the jewels revealing a dazzling display as the light is refracted and the spectrum of visible light explodes in a glorious display. And it changes from every angle. Something new and amazing is revealed from each angle and light change. It is never ending and always beautiful as it reveals something of the glory and nature of the divine. It is HIS story coming to life in us as The Light reveals it. The more we allow the light to control us, the more we see new brilliance in the jewels. Then we mature and realize something more. The light is not merely in us. We have died and been hidden in the light. The light shines brightest when we are at our deadest. The more dead we become, the more glorious the light is. As we gain understanding and maturity, it is then revealed that the jewels are not what is glorious. Instead, what is glorious is The Light. The jewels merely reflect and refract what The Light pours down on them. So it is with the Bible, as God's special revelation of Himself to the world, it is merely the jewels that reveal Him as He shines Himself on and through it to those wanting to know The Light. The jewels are pointing us to The Light. We must turn and look unto Him and pursue as. Only life can come from This Light. We have to, absolutely have to, we must enter into HIS story allowing Him to be our Light, our Life, our everything. Darkness, no matter how hard it tries cannot reveal glory and does not deserve glory for it is the absence of Light.




God says to you, "My plans are not thwarted by your choices.  You cannot make Me love you more. You toil and spin SO much."


"Life growth, your sanctification, is all about perspective. If you take your focus off you and you solving your stuff, then you grow and mature. Often the change of perspective is so subtle that you do not recognize when you are deceived and off track. You need no longer be independent. You need to be in dependence on Me. You are holey, filled with holes. You are not whole. You need to stay focused on Me and I will make you holy, not filled with holes, but filled with Me so you become pure."


"It's all right that you do not understand many things. Will you trust Me?"

I don't like Your questions, Lord. Why won't You answer mine?

God, "What risk is there in following Me if you are dead to yourself?  Your flesh fears many things that have no power and it has little fear of The One Who has all the power."


Why is it that when 'life' happens, we get busy and caught up in stuff, that we become flakey in our walk with You? ...It all depends on whose 'life' you want: yours or Jesus'.
