Waiting game. To start all over, or even some may call it a reset can be daunting. At times the reset can even come about when you were at the mountain top, which internally would make some nauseous. However, one may wonder if remaining “on top of the world” yields any growth? Or in due time create complacency? Too often the people shy away from mentioning their valley moments, or even discount it as if it didn’t prepare and shape them into a mature individual. However, the waiting game is not for the faint of the heart, or those who battle with FOMO. To wait is to be still in mind, body, and soul in a world that is on the run in all different directions.

Perception. The individuals binocular view on everything around. There is somewhat a lack of awareness because of what is being observed. In. Real. Time. Nothingness or at least the thought of it can really bring about an appetizer of anxiety, and later an entree’ of stress. No need to leave room for dessert. A tsunami of cortisol rising to eventually crashing on the homefront leaving self to remain out in the abyss.

Grapple. Imagine a farmer engaging with agriculture as if it were a Mortal Kombat experience. The oddly outcome amongst the dual would yield fallow land. Fallow, fallow, fallow (perception). A land that is void (perspective).

Soil Degradation Cont. So apparently there is more than one way soil can become unhealthy, and clearly this is the case for the human soul. If I owned a substantial amount of acres of farmland and the soil became tainted, I can either continue to sow in hopes that miracle will happen because Mother Nature should handle her business if she is truly about standing on business, or I can be pragmatic and inspect what is going on at the foundation. The fact that I was able to acquire so much land (which I may not even be worthy of owning) must have some significance that I’m unaware of because all I see and stand on is currently nothing. Although, the land is bleak I can hear faintly wise counsel mentioning something about perception and perspective. Ah look, P2 has arrived on the scene to attempt to save the day, or maybe one’s soul. Willingness and patience will play a huge factor.

Backstory

A really good friend of mine was discussing how once again just in as in biblical times there will be a remnant that will stand firm on Kingdom culture [all-things related to God’s purpose (plan)]. Moreover, she mentioned the refiner’s fire. Essentially, how this unique group of people have been purified (set-apart, cleansed), or layman’s terms, they’ve been devoted, and now are prepared for specific task(s). Now I want to make something very clear the remnant are not who you would expect. They’re in no way shape or form part of the A-Team, instead they’re the outcasts, or even the one’s who just usually blend in with society; go unseen. As we continued to have a conversation I was reminded of something I randomly wrote last Summer, but it may even apply now. Below you will find my writings that I had stored away, but originally was meant to be shared with a close-knit group. Hmmm… I wonder who else this may be for? It will either land well with some of you or not. A drop of a seed.

June 2023

And just in the blink of an eye we’re already in the 3rd quarter of the year. The great anticipation of Summer is what many of us look forward to on a yearly basis. There are more sunny and warmer days that spark joy in our lives, but for some odd reason this Summer season seems to have penalized us with sprinkles of melancholy moments. And to be honest, I wonder why this is so, Could it directly be related to blatant disobedience in our personal lives? Or perhaps, we haven’t advanced to a certain level of intimacy with God that He’s requiring? Well, whether it’s one of those two things, or another something is the spiritual realm is brewing— and it is undeniably calling for our swift attention. Our God, is and has not been pleased by the behaviors inside and outside of the body of Christ. He cannot work with hypocrites, only with those that are among the righteous. Even biblically it was noted what the fate was for hypocrites— hand of judgment, while for the righteous it was sovereignty and promises. 


In the seventh and eighth chapter of Isaiah we are introduced to two sons; Shear-Jashub (a remnant shall return) and Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz (swift to plunder/spoil, speedy is prey). Now, I can imagine what you’re thinking, “What odd names for one of the prophets to name his sons,” and I concur with that statement. But what we have to realize is that theses names were prophetic for what was to come for the lands of Israel and Judah. Due to the Israelites hedonistic ways, and just disobedience in general God was going to do with them accordingly, but He didn’t have intentions on wiping out these entire nations. Remember He had promised, and created a symbol that would grant grace for those in the future. Those who remained faithful and committed did by second-hand experience some of the anguish of God’s judgement, but they were spared because of obedience. Take some time to really think about what was just presented. What have you been spared from in this world, and why do you think so?


I don’t want any of you to forget that this Upper Zoom group is considered at least one-third of the remnant. We have to come to understand that we will still be faced with challenges, but what will be our coping mechanisms— God’s prophetic words and promises, or the temporal aids of this unpredictable world? Will we continue to fall prey to daily distractions, or sacrifice our flesh so that our time, and attention (i.e eyes and ears) are focused on the almighty Creator, Judge, and Savior. We got this and He’s got us so let’s move forward accordingly.

Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.

-Robert Louis Stevenson

Soil degradation. Someone please tell me what’s going on, and cue Marvin Gaye. Two things that I’ve noticed for the past several years is that our society has become so fixated on what they’re expecting to reap instead of the foundation. What’s even more concerning is that very few are examining if their human core is rotten, yet miraculously expecting an abundance of fruitful outcomes. From those two noted observations my claim is that there are some deep-rooted unresolved issues that have corroded personal identities. When our identity is off kilter then we no longer assess the season that is most profitable to sow in, and we don’t even take into consideration what we’re sowing. It baffles me when I see people disgruntled and blaming others for their poor choices that have lead to their own demise and depletion. At this point my question is why as humans have we been so conditioned to have this YOLO mentality to only then spoil the harvest? Let us remember that before the initial stages of peaking, there must be impact at the core, then blossoming can occur.

SPARK POTENTIAL WITH A SEED

Seed of existence. Isn’t odd that many want to experience a prosperous life, yet the the field hasn’t been properly assessed. Is the field’s soil viable, or is it lackluster. This field reference is a great personification of legacy. I truly believe that any type of legacy can be produced- whether it’s one that is fruitful, or one that is barren. Quite often I think about how many legacy’s have been compromised because of misguidance, or there wasn’t a strategic formula mapped out for future generations. Just think about how many powerful innovators, and other professionals didn’t reach their full potential or tap into their purpose. Crazy, right? I mean it could’ve been someone that you knew, or someone in your life now. I truly believe that it comes down to pure generational stewardship.. Are we really setting the proper example/stage for those after us; even if they’re not blood related? How much time do we spend searching for ways to use our gifts/talents that will drive our passions? I don’t care what anyone says… every living soul has potential and purpose even if they started from humble beginnings. All potential needs is a simple spark, and then constant fuel to keep it aflame so it can be the driving force to your aspirations that will help establish self, but also guide and build others.
