Life is but a breath

November 21, 2010

Life can be snuffed out by taking ones breath away but life is a lot deeper than that. Life should not be summed up as a breath of two oxygen molecules that are bonded together that float in a see of Nitrogen and other gaseous molecules but should be of what you as a person compose it to be of.

 

We all accumulate material goods but we also accumulate parts of a jig-saw which join together to make a picture of life. In some cases, we pick up some parts and try to force them into place in the jig-saw which sticks out like a sore thumb only to not only you but to others also. It is when we leave that jig-saw piece in place that it begins to hurt an this piece knocks off others.

 

Some people however notice that the piece does not fit in correctly and remove to find the correct piece that suits in the picture of life. What can be further destructive in life is that as you complete your jig-saw of life, you can begin to complete two parts of the jig-saw before compiling the both together which can result in two focuses of life building one quicker than the other, in the hope of achieving one life that will succeed quicker then pulling the two together and keeping your life the way it was in the bigger jig-saw part created.

 

Rebuilding City Walls

November 20, 2010

It has been once again some time since words have appeared on this blog. It is amazing how consuming life can become when you want it to be and let the important things in life come first. I could blog about how you should spend your time on certain aspects of life over non-important items that are only important in short-term rather than long-term commitments which don’t benefit you but more so to others, which shows your willingness to give to others rather than a selfish gain…but I won’t because I feel I have blogged about that one times to many but need to remind myself of it periodically as you can easily slip into a rut.

This blog post takes the shape of correspondence between the Book of Nehemiah Chp. 2  – Chp. 7 and the song “God of this city” More specifically the verse…

For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here

The reason I was stirred between these two is because of groups coming together to rebuild a city together. To me this represents how the fellowships/churches in each city need to come together to build their parts of the wall but also at the same time and communicate to ensure the wall is of same design and structure to avoid a wall that would fall down. The Father may use fellowships to build parts of walls but the enemy can still enter into the cities if not building it in correct position with others or if not at the correct time.
