SEPARATION FROM LIGHT AND FREEDOM

WALLOWING IN DARKNESS

During our disastrous separation from light, truth and freedom, wallowing in the shame, regrets, anger, lies and revenge, what did we learn besides not to trust anyone, not to believe what anyone says and all that jazz.....life is not actually a matter of trusting others....it is a journey of discovering our emotions in various different circumstances, developing them, to not only overcome these events, but also to conquer them, which is incredibly difficult, when we are immensely oppressed, our property stolen, broken and destroyed, we are manipulated, threatened, such deep resentment grows within us becoming hatred and anger, which are both very strong emotions of darkness and that is what swallows us into the pits of depression and helplessness. We have to seek deeper, much deeper to conquer the resentment, hatred and anger or it will destroy us......we must separate material from spiritual and opt for the spiritual which is everlasting ....

THE REAL DANGER THAT LURKS......

TRAPPED IN DARKNESS

Our real danger is the trap of darkness,
separation from the light into its starkness,
all playing out in the emotional level,
killing our love is the treat of the devil.

It blinds our eyes with anger and rage,
as we can't find a way to turn the page,
deeper and deeper into darkness we slide,
as resentment takes us for a nasty ride.

We must rise above the level of the ground,
there where divinity is safe and sound,
conquer the resentment with brand new plans,
or the hatred and anger will destroy our clans.

CAPTURED CONSCIENCE

SEPARATION GULF

We are always children of our Father, the massive gulf that separates us is a mental block......the accuser using our conscience, the shame, disgrace, disgust and anger we feel at the traps we were lured into. Not even death - which is the most final - can separate us...our Father even sent Jesus into death and darkness to inform those stuck in prisons of darkness, of this, so they are not ignorant......so......stop hiding, our past, our deeds, our thoughts....all of it ...God is omnipresent within each of us, a silent partner going through every experience with us, we have no explaining to do, nothing...it is all known....THERE ARE NO SECRETS, THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE, THERE IS NOTHING TO RUN FROM....NOTHING....HAVE NO FEAR.....AWAKE AND PUT IT ALL DOWN TO EXPERIENCE AND BRAVELY COME FORWARD WITH A NEW WAY OF THINKING.....WHAT HAVE WE LEARNT THROUGH THESE EXPERIENCES? WHAT HAVE WE GAINED? WHAT HAVE WE LOST? HOW DO WE RESTORE WHAT WE HAVE LOST? .......NOT WHERE ARE WE GOING TO HIDE.....THERE IS NO HIDING PLACE....

MASSIVE GULF BETWEEN DARK AND LIGHT

SHADOW OF DEATH

There's a massive gulf between dark and light,
an enormous separation called death and night,
living souls and spirits trapped in flesh that's dead,
through the power of the air it's controlled and fed.

But....not even death can break our Fathers cord,
he sent Jesus into darkness to bring us on board,
the accuser holds our conscience in a grip,
keeping us captive by the lies of his lip.

There are no secrets, God knows it all,
there is nothing hidden, so answer His call,
release your conscience and break yourself free,
there's a purpose for it all as we will see.

ALWAYS PART OF THE FAMILY

OUR TRUE FATHER

A child remains a child of a father or mother regardless of what they do or where they travel....it is simply a fact that can never change. ..even when one strays and the other disowns them...they are still parent and child by connection....FACT.... When we stray too far from home, these worldly master lure and snare us in their webs and traps leading us subtly into situations which are against our morals, bringing us shame and guilt which makes us want to hide from our parents as not to bring the shame upon them.....like carrying our own cross, trying to keep the dirt away. All this normally happens while we are young children, far too young to understand, discern or know what to do about it. This is a massive weapon hindering us to stand, a massive obstacle blocking the light of the truth. God holds no record of wrongs...only the accuser does....God holds nothing against us......it is all circumstantial and training in the work in progress. A child we are in the kingdom of God and will always be.....so....don't shy away, don't be used for evil, COME HOME.......COME....IN WHATEVER CONDITION YOU ARE IN....COME. Don't be prevented by accusations. Whatever we have done, or do, doesn't change the fact that we are a child of God...PERIOD....END OF STORY....AND NOTHING AND NOBODY CAN STAND IN THE WAY....OPEN THE PATHS.....AMEN

INVISIBLE CONNECTION

CHILDREN OF THE CREATOR

Children of the creator we will always be,
this is a fact and cannot change, you see,
attached we are to an invisible cord,
that can never be severed by a sword.

As children young we are taken away,
tricked and trapped and made to sway,
far too young to understand or know,
we're sucked very deeply into the worldly show.

But...children of the creator we will always be,
from any worldly forces we need never flee,
they know who we are and will try to use fear,
yet we know our paths are always in the clear.

HOW TO CHOOSE A NEW MASTER

COMING HOME

We come to the new master and ask to join....to come home really.   We ask what we need to do? What is the cost? Turn away from the other masters by rejecting their offerings and deals. Now....our past will most assuredly come into play as an obstacle in our way, so what shall we do? We ask for help, when choosing Jesus, this is the way.....Jesus already took our past and our today and nailed it to the cross, with Him we have no past....we listen ONLY TO HIM AND NOT TO THE ACCUSER. There is no cost.....it has been paid in full with His body nailed to the cross... ONLY BELIEVE, so we don't doubt....it is like the prodigal coming home....it is not about what we did or did not do, it's about being a son and daughter, returning home after living in the shadow of a horrendous war, and our Father has paid all debts and dues and cleared our name.... AS ALL OF US WERE TRAPPED IN CHILDHOOD....AND TAKEN PRISONER IN CHILDHOOD.....SO.... COME HOME PRODIGALS....JUST COME HOME....

IGNORE THE ACCUSER

PRODIGAL RETURNING HOME

Now we know the lay of the land,
that various masters grip us in their hand,
holding deeds against our heads,
making us toss and turn in our beds.

We don't need to stay and remain in their grip,
we can turn away and give it the slip,
return to our father as a prodigal one,
who paid all our dues by the blood of the Son.

No accuser has the right of way,
it is only Jesus that has a say,
we have no need to answer at all,
we only heed to Jesus call.

CHANGING MASTERS

LOSING CONTROL

When we wake up and realize our life is not going where we want it, we are continually side tracked, we think we're in control but then discover we're not. This leads to enormous confusion and fear, because we don't know what to do, or where we stand. We don't know who or what is regulating and directing our lives so we don't know where to go, we don't go out looking for trouble, but it comes to us anyway. We find no help and are like sitting ducks.....who can see it all? Who do we contact that can see the full picture? What can give us protection? Who are the masters and how do we reach to the top to find them? As we gave our lives, or rather landed in the hands of earthly masters  through our choices, we can now give ourselves to another master. Most masters are chained in darkness, only one I know of escaped the grip of death and that was Jesus Christ, the first to return from the grave, from the judgement of darkness and from the captivity of separation from God, which is death.....so choose Jesus....

UNPLANNED TROUBLE

WHO KNOWS ALL

We may plan all we want,
and still find that we can't,
we may do as we're told,
yet our life is still sold.

We don't look for trouble,
yet it finds us on the double,
things we never prepared for,
comes knocking on our door.

Who sees it all and can gave us protection,
where can we run without finding rejection,
which master will save us from deaths grip,
who will hold us so we don't fall and slip.
