Life is fucking electric bro. Donβt fall for the doomer shit. Thats for losers and normies scared of their own shadows. Walk around like God sent you and smile at everyone you see. Spread light and abundance. Build things and take chances. This is the best time in history!
John leaned on Jesus' chest at supper.
Stayed at the cross when every other man ran.
Outlived all twelve. Beaten. Boiled in oil. Exiled to a rock in the ocean.
Thirty years later, Jesus appeared to him in glory.
John didn't worship. Didn't kneel. Didn't lift his hands.
He fell at His feet as dead.
As dead.
Peter did the same thing. After the miraculous catch - boats sinking under the weight - Peter didn't celebrate.
He said: "Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord."
Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up. Seraphim crying, Holy. And the prophet said: "Woe is me! for I am undone."
Job argued with God for 37 chapters. Then God showed up. Job said: "I abhor myself and repent in dust and ashes."
Every tough man in the Bible who saw the living God had the same reaction.
Not awe. Not worship.
Collapse.
Now look at us.
Walking into church with coffee. Nodding at sermons. Shaking hands in the lobby. Forgetting it by Tuesday.
We think we've been in God's presence.
If you'd been in God's presence, you wouldn't walk out the same way you walked in.
The men who saw Him couldn't stand.
We can barely be bothered to sit.
When Jesus returns, there will be no more heroes. No more performers. The hero and the villain will stand equal at last - empty-handed, bare-faced, finally free to be merely beloved...
I have watched men sit still in the same chair long enough that the chair started shaping them, their spine curved into it, ribs narrowed into it, entire musculature negotiated a permanent surrender with this cheap ikea-object. the human body was not designed for peace. peace does weird shit to cells the same way standing water does weird shit to ponds. every parasite in nature depends on a stagnant host. think how many of your worst thoughts arrived while you were lying down. the mind that does not move produces the same quality of thought as a bloodstream that does not move. sludge, thick, dark, slow, confident in its own decay, convinced this darkness is depth
Before God will trust you with greater levels, Heβll put you in these situations to see what you do. When you could embarrass someone, will you bless them? When you could expose them, will you cover them? When you could push them down, will you show mercy and lift them? These are tests we all have to pass to reach our destiny.
