The same end. The hidden.
Realizations struck me. Things became more and more apparent. The truth hurts. But i guess the truth is the truth. The deception of the heart, distorted the mind, and affected the will. Amid all these sinful few days of personal troubles, the climax sums it all. All my biggest troubles hit me at once. But i guess this hurts me the most. I wanted to dwell and succumb to sorrowness. The mask could hardly hold on. I just wanted to sit there. To stare blankly and reminiscence all that has passed by me. The final blow- the deceived perception i have on things the past 1 year and 5 months, truly was, interpreted the way, i wanted to read it. The image was, the image i wanted to portray. Not forgetting the troubles of the past few days caused by my 2 main weaknesses. Well, im trying very hard to let the former die as the clock ticks away. My only temporal solution was to take a nap and wake up with a brand new hollowmask, which will slowly die away again, then i'll repeat the process, till, the day its no longer the bane of my life. I just regret not heeding the advice that people made apparent to me. I continued sticking to this thought of mine. Just hoping....
Hoping...
Hoping, the world is the way i wanted it, not necessarily the way He wanted it.
But we all know, its His.
At least, in the midst of all these, i will still say, Thank God, that He has a will and purpose for me, the way i may not see it now.
We, the alien, believe in the "alien" righteousness of God, and I will not change my alien thinking. Aliens, unite, and let us continue in doing the work of God.
1Pe 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:
1Pe 2:10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
1Pe 2:11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
1Pe 2:12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
A portion of scripture i wanted to share. From matthew 13:1-23
The Parable of the Sower
1That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea.2And great crowds gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat down. And the whole crowd stood on the beach.3And he told them many things in parables, saying: “A sower went out to sow.4And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.5Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil,6but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away.7Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.8Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.9He who has ears, let him hear.”
The Purpose of the Parables
10Then the disciples came and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”11And he answered them, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.12For to the one who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.13This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.14Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says:
“‘You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.
15For this people's heart has grown dull,
and with their ears they can barely hear,
and their eyes they have closed,
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
and turn, and I would heal them.’
16But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.17Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
The Parable of the Sower Explained
18“Hear then the parable of the sower:19When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path.20As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy,21yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away. 22As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.23As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”
To my dearly beloved, I hope the word of God will impact your thinking, just like the one who was sown on good soil, hears the word, and understands it. It is so easy for us to settle for the 3rd kind of seeds.But we know, we shouldnt. I hope you'll apply this to your daily life, living it out, thinking out loud.
I'll never forget, the Greatest Thing.
