Destination: Destiny

Our physical senses and therefore the material world, constitute only a fraction of our existence. Many concepts exist which do not repond to newtonian physics, and are not bound to a corporeal form. Transcendent values of morality, self sacrifice, and love clearly demonstrate that man is not meant to "live by bread alone", (Matt 4:4) but in the power and provision of the Lord. Man is not, ultimately, to be tied to the confines of a universe made of matter. At present, we "see through a glass darkly", (1 Cor. 13:12) having our senses bombarded by this world composed of matter, and distracted from that which will endure forever.

The reality of our destiny as the servants of Glory for the Most High King is only thinly veiled over. "It does not yet appear what we shall be", but "we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is".(1 John 3:2) Forever priests of the King of Kings, our body will be unshackled from the corruption of pain and death. We shall rejoice forever in the strength of our fellowship with Him. In His authority, we will transend the limits of mere flesh. May He hasten that day.

For now, our every word and action,in Him, is pregnant with God's purpose and meaning. In His Spirit, we administer joy and peace. Each moment of time is embued with repercussions that echo through eternity. Burdened with such a great weight of His glory, do we not "do more than just exist"?


Finding Identity as.......
In submission
I become
not less
but more.
Prostrated,
I am
exalted.
Created as
a conduit of:
Your mercy
Your compassion
Your love.
In humility
I find
my calling.
Limned in light
Your radiance
shines out.
Effective now,
Your servant!
