I'm So Glad...

...That all of God is available to all...who will simply wait for Him to supply..... For those who do, He gives them their meat in due season.

I'm so glad that God's Life-Giving bounty is not limited to an elite few. For few will ever be numbered with an "elite" nor part of a perceived gifted or favored fraternity / pedigree in this world. Yet all are highly favored...uniquely privileged, those who are in Him.

I'm so glad that "virtues" of the downcast and disregarded capture His heart and compels Him to look toward them and extend His hand. What an honor, though overlooked by life, to be seen by El Roi and valued by Omnipotence. He is the God of Jacob (Selah...) and the Father to those who have none.

I'm so glad and blessed to know that, happy are the "uncool", for theirs is the gift of authenticity in a world of show. Popularity will elude most of us, but the salve of His indwelling Spirit will escort all from loneliess to solitude, from the disappointments of a treacherous and broken world to the "secret place of His dwelling", from incessant uncertainties to incorrigible Hope. The secret of the Lord is with them who fear and wait. Those who endure, who are renewed, those who overcome, they are found there...the Vestibule of Heaven...with the God of the lowly...my exceeding Joy. ...One day with Him, better than a thosand anywhere else in the universe...the best vacation you'll ever have.

Amazed at the wonder of it all....
