As Water Wears Away Stones…
The pain of inequity and the shame of our transgressions should keep our eyes upon Jesus Christ, but they do not. We are human and God Almighty has made us the way He sees fit. We, like running water, are should travel along the path that God makes for us. When we wonder off course we, like the water in a stream, dries up and no longer moves in with the Father, in the Father or for the Father. We vanish from ourselves.
What are we to learn from these lessons? When the rain falls and the water begins to flow once again the stream should find the low ground and return from where it came. The low ground of the valley is where is we find humility. The low ground of the valley is where the beauty of God lies waiting for us to turn back to Him as He races towards us with delight. We were never removed from Jesus, the Stream, we just made a wrong turn. We stepped out when we should have dove deeper.
My transgression is sealed up in a bag,
And You cover my iniquity.
“But as a mountain falls and crumbles away,
And as a rock is moved from its place;
As water wears away stones,
And as torrents wash away the soil of the earth;
So You destroy the hope of man. ~ Job 14:17-19 NKJB

We love helping others and believe that’s one of the reasons we are chosen as Ambassadors of the Kingdom, to serve God’s children. We look to the Greatest Commandment as our Powering force.
It is in the destruction that we find the Beauty of God. It is as if we were always fighting with God, when God is simply trying to get our attention, make us whole and seek His Kingdom first, above all else, seek His Kingdom first.
Many people shall come and say,
“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
He will teach us His ways,
And we shall walk in His paths.”
For out of Zion shall go forth the law,
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. ~ Isiah 2:3 NKJB
We would not know of our inequities and transgressions without the Law. While the Word of the Lord directs our path as we seek first the Kingdom of God or when we turn our back to God. Our inequities and transgressions never leave us, for they are always before us, but we no longer have the weight or the need to carry them as the Son of God, Jesus Christ, washes us clean.
Either the Scripture is the divine Word of God teaching us how to live and how to be a reflection of God, or it’s nothing more than a historical account of events.
