| Take a look around you, for once in your life if you have never done this, notice the stillness in the air, the power in a thunderstorm, the calmness in the rain, the scent of the grass, the rock of the earth, the light of the sun. As all these things seem to peirce the heart of the once worldly man, there seems to be a change in your heart. When you realize that life is boundless, it has endless opportunities, you feel free in the heart of the world, to find yourself sitting in the stillness of the wind, as the rain falls upon your shoulders as once a tear ridden shirt was stained. You find yourself shaking from the power of the storm, yet hopefull from the light of the sun. To take a journey from where you dont know where your going, to start an adventure not caring what lie's ahead, only certain that what ever happens is fate. To let your self fall carelessly into the arms of God, knowing full and well, that the adventure that your on, no matter what road it is you take, that God will still be there, in the stillness of the air, in the power of the thunderstorm, in the calmness of the rain, in the scent of the grass, in the rock of the earth, in the light of the sun. The creater of time, the essense of time the shear thought of being in control, the will power to let the earth stand still, or let it move freely. Yet this isnt the only aspects of what God is.
A Lion, so fierce yet proud, so true to its nature, powerful enough to take down whatever gets in his way, yet beautiful enough that you want to go up and pet its mane. A Lamb, so meek yet graceful. The excellency of God, the excellency of Christ, who being himself God did not consider himself to be God. To amount his self to nothing, to become a servant to men.
To be meek like Christ, and to be gracefull in his ways. To see the beauty of him, and yet how fierce he can be. We start a journey not knowing whats ahead. Yet knowing that are leader is a fiecre yet beautifully meek, God. We're stricken with fear as we knock on the door of hope, and yet we dont want to run away. Our adventure is to live in those moments, to hold onto what you want. To hold onto what you need. To prove your love for God.
The path of this adventure leads you down many roads, and the adventures that you follow, are not all the same. Some may be you seeking something through what God gives you the will to deal with. But sometimes that will power that you have is not the same with the other half of the adventure. Sometimes a road is ended, until preperation is made forth from the other side of this adventure. What i mean by that is that through what God wants sometimes two roads of a path from two seperate people must cross, this is just another adventure. God created man to desire. But the desire that you have should not be for worldy things, but the desire to please God through all the little things that you do, through all the big things that you do. Though that the adventure of what all men desire come forth. But for that to take place, both roads of the adventure have to cross.
Now im not completly sure if this made sense at all. But all in all, look at life with open eyes, inviting everything in as you look around, ready to take on what ever is thrown at you, to challenge your self with anything, to live in the thick and thin, to gain in the end.
