How Long, O Lord? A Meditation on Habakkuk

A SPIRITUAL SOLUTION - Wisdom From The Fulfillment Forum Books & Study Courses
At times when we think honestly, if we stop deceiving ourselves, we are forced to admit that life per se can become an unmitigated horror. Not only are we threatened by wars, financial shifts and joblessness, the calamities of nature and narcissistic manipulators, the very earth itself treats us with supreme indifference. The beautiful and productive world we inhabit slowly but surely converts every plant that sprouts a stalk and each creature that draws a breath into fertilizer to feed yet another doomed generation.

White Sun - Tao of Heaven. Showers of Wisdom ( Part 2 of 3 )
A thought of joy is stars in panorama and clouds in celebration. A thought of anger is ear-splitting thunder and torrential rain. A thought of loving kindness is caressing breeze and sweet dew. A thought of dignity is scorching sun and autumn frost. This is a poem by JiGong, my Heavenly teacher.

Beneficiaries of the Promise
The gospel started with Abraham. That is why Scripture says he was introduced to the gospel in advance. If anyone was ever a religious fanatic it was Abraham. If anyone ever had an excuse to disobey God it was Abraham. God tested him in many ways including asking him to offer his only son of promise on the altar. Because he passed the test, we have the blessings of being in Christ.

God Became Man
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. --JOHN 1:14
For thirty-three years Jesus felt everything you and I have ever felt. To think of Jesus in such a light is—well, it seems almost irreverent, doesn’t it? It’s not something we like to do; it’s uncomfortable. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. There is something about keeping Him divine that keeps Him distant, packed, predictable. But don’t do it. For heaven’s sake, don’t. Let Him be as human as He intended to be. Let Him into the mire and muck of our world. For only if we let Him in can He pull us out. Listen to Him.
