LIFE has its up and downs,
but isn't that LIFE
because LIFE has a mind of its own.
LIFE is what happens when what you have planned has been changed.
But what if
LIFE is what happens when you have been changed because of changing LIFE?
Hmm. Think about it.
You are spinning your wheels
and getting really dizzy,
And when you stop you just drop
because you are still spinning
even though you have stopped.
The older you get
it takes longer to get rid of the dizziness,
but when it is gone
STILLNESS remains.
How would you know what STILL was unless you knew dizzy?
How would you know PEACE if you never experienced anxiety?
How would you know JOY if you never experienced despair?
How would you know the FREEDOM of flying if you never experienced crawling?
How would you know JESUS if you never experienced JESUS?
HE is the STILLNESS despite changing life.
HE is JOY despite the dizziness of despair.
HE is PEACE despite the dizziness of anxiety.
Because JESUS is the change that changes you
from the inside out
so that you start flying,
soaring above the dizziness of life
that strives to trap you
stealing away the
ABUNDANCE of LIFE
that is alway present
because
JESUS is ALWAYS PRESENT.
HE isn't a cliche
or a religion that leaves you dry.
HE stops the world and everything in it
that strives to make you dizzy
because the moment you start to focus
on the ONE who calms the seas
your world becomes smaller and smaller and smaller
because
JESUS is so much bigger
that everything else loses its power
so that you are no longer dizzy
in the midst of the spinning times
because
HE UNLEASHES you into a new world
that is HIS WORLD
where
JESUS
is
"FAITHFUL NOW"
