LIVE LIKE A BUSH ON FIRE

No wonder so many through the years give little attention to our Heavenly Father and His regime.  Such isn't due to investigation.  Hardly.  It is, rather, due to sheer laziness.  It takes attention and focus to dig through the broad information glut to strike the gold truth of God and His realm.  Discovery is a life-long walk.  I believe it was Jesus who declared that believing him was the work God assigned to man....Jn. 6:29.

Dig away.

The Spirit ways are reverse to the flesh ways.  Mystery topples logic.  Absurdity rules over explanation.  The way to keep is to give away.  Expansion of memory is found by consumption of the Meal. And, life is found by dying.

God gives mankind a hint in a desert setting of long ago.  Moses happened upon a sight that bears the image of real authentic kingdom living for our age; a burning bush that was not consumed.  Get it?  A bush on fire that would not yield to logical and assumed eventual consumption.

Such is our story.

Paul said it another way.  For we who live are constantly being delivered over to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.  So death works in us, but life in you.

Our mortal flesh is the burning bush of this century.  The Spirit of God resides in us.  Hurt us.  Injure us.  Distract us.  We will not be put away for we have a Holy Fire within which shines amazingly bright from our flesh. 

Burn....and do so brightly and eternally!
