Misunderstood

When people think about me, they think about me in a very limited way; they think about me with their very limited minds, with the selfishness of their flesh and within the space of time as they know it. They think about me but with limitation of their existence.

I am the reason there’s a world, I am the reason there’s hope, I am the reason there’s peace, I am the reason there’s life. I am the only reason the world didn’t end from the beginning.

I have been at the centre of everything, I intervened when your mother Eve got tempted and your father Adam messed up. I prevailed when your brother Abel cried out after he was killed by his kin – the plant groomer/farmer. Samson groaned for strength. I understood that, though he messed up, he needed to finish his in-laws – those Philistines. I was there and I gave Him his strength. Yes, Delilah’s people had it coming for them.

David your cousin fell several times, but he understood me – that’s rare, and he reaped the benefits. It was refreshing to have someone understand me – it’s endearing to know he deliberately sought to understand me. This is why, though he stumbled in the beginning, he slew giants and broke records.

What actions were borne out of me is basically because I exist. I have been in existence before time itself, I have the advantage of hindsight and foresight. Enuch and I had something real going on, Elijah understood me and knew how to appeal to me. Those strategic Hebrew boys, your cousins – they understood my essence and look how beautifully they turned out.

I am selfless. I am the feather, I am the whip, I am the prosecutor, I am the defender, I am time. The world exists because I do, I am often…Misunderstood! 

You deserve something timeless, true, limitless, selfless, real…you deserve Me!

I am love, I am God, I think about you every time and I want you to carry this consciousness everywhere you go.

My beloved friends, let us continue to love each other since love comes from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and experiences a relationship with God. The person who refuses to love doesn’t know the first thing about God, because God is love—so you can’t know him if you don’t love. This is how God showed his love for us: God sent his only Son into the world so we might live through him. This is the kind of love we are talking about—not that we once upon a time loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to clear away our sins and the damage they’ve done to our relationship with God.

My dear, dear friends, if God loved us like this, we certainly ought to love each other. No one has seen God, ever. But if we love one another, God dwells deeply within us, and his love becomes complete in us—perfect love! – 1John 4:7-11

  1. Hallelujah! There was a stirring in my spirit reading this piece. Sometimes we judge God based on how we judge or think man …when he has clearly stated “God is not a man that should lie nor a son of man that should repent”
