2 Corinthians 3:2-4
King James Version
2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts,
known and read of all men:
3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared
to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us,
written not with ink,
but with the Spirit of the living God;
not in tables of stone,
but in fleshy tables of the heart.
4 And such trust have we
through Christ to God-ward:
It's quite a path, when GOD decides it's time for you to be born again.
Especially if you are truly repentant of your sins.
First thing He did?
He led me to Bible prophecy right away.
Pointing out America's errors.
Then, over the years, He led me to Israel's plight.
After which, America's rehab, through Trump.
And so many other world stuff in between.
I know many stories.
Comes from listening, and trying to understand.
And just plain interest in what people have to say.
And a thirst for learning.
Especially regarding ABSOLUTE TRUTH.
When such is your path, prepare for hits, and misses.
How else will you learn, unless you know both sides to the equation?
Focus on listening, and you'll encounter a rich bed of stories.
If you're a writer, you'll never run out of things to write.
Every person has a story to tell.
All I have to do is sit, right where I am, and the stories reveal themselves.
My 32 days at the hospital, as "watcher", has given me enough stories for a book.
The family member I watched over is a rich source of his own story.
As such, I honor his life, work, success, and struggle.
The medical establishment is a rich bed of stories, too.
As are the patients who bore through their pain, and suffering.
Not to mention the families who watched over them.
July 6 marked my 70 months as born again watchman.
Now, it's the 10th, and as I grieve, I marvel, too.
I grieve, for reasons only known to GOD, myself, and my family.
But I also marvel, because TONS of stories revealed itself.
Where GOD initially took me globally, now he took me right home -- locally.
Right where our beloved family member was.
GOD has made me "chronicler" of events.
Where people like the bottom line, I like the details.
I love paying attention to details.
It's the only way I can get to the core of things.
You can't get to the bottom line, unless you have the details.
Details tell the story.
I have no interest in controversy.
I just tell stories as they are, just as people tell me.
Just as events happened.
I merely sit back, and let the story weave itself, through SPIRIT.
He's the One putting order in chaos.
All I do is connect the dots He allows me to connect.
Depending on the clues He gives.
He guides me to tie the strings.
And lets me put the pieces of the puzzle together.
He makes me connect it with GOD's WORD.
And it becomes a cohesive whole.
GOD gave me sharp ears, so I'll hear a cry.
He doesn't want me to miss a beat.
Because I don't want to, either.
He knows I care about people.
I care what happens to them.
Especially the ones others "discard", or forget.
I am particularly drawn to the "forgotten" ones.
The ones whose cries are faintest, almost imperceptible.
I'd want to be the first one to hear that.
Isn't that how JESUS would want us to be?
I am not the judge of who, and what is important.
Only JESUS is.
SPIRIT does the sieving.
I do the chronicling.
EXACTLY as He guides me to.
By myself, I won't know the organization to it.
If you've never been born again, now is the time to be.
If you've never been workman, or watchman, you have no idea what you're missing.
If you've never worked with SPIRIT before, you have no idea The REAL Power.
So, I continue to keep my ears to SPIRIT's heart.
Because I don't want to miss a call, a cry, a command, or a beat.
I want to be where SPIRIT is.
Because that's where JESUS is.
Hebrews 2:1
King James Version
2 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed
to the things which we have heard,
lest at any time we should let them slip.
