We look to get too comfortable on
earth...Grabbing everything, Coveting any other, Cheating everyone,
Discrimating amongst ourselves and letting any other thing be our prime
concern other than eternity.
We are
continually laying our treasures here on earth and putting our Heart
in them so much so that we are afraid to die. _(Whichever way it is
never easy but this is the point... )_
Times
such as this affords us the opportunity to sit back and review our ways,
simply asking ourselves *if We are heavenly minded enough...* even as
we pursue in all our *good* gettings.
Once again, our continuing passage in Job is of help. #Meditate
_From
whose womb comes the ice? Who gives birth to the frost from the
heavens. When the waters become hard as stone, when the surface of the
deep is frozen?_
_"Can you bind the beautiful
Pleiades? Can you loose the cords of Orion?Can you bring forth the
constellations in their seasons or lead out the Bear with its cubs?_
_Do
you know the laws of the heavens? Can you set up [God's ] dominion over
the earth?"Can you raise your voice to the clouds and cover yourself
with a flood of water?_
_Do you send the
lightning bolts on their way? Do they report to you, `Here we are'?Who
endowed the heart with wisdom or gave understanding to the mind ?_
_Who
has the wisdom to count the clouds? Who can tip over the water jars of
the heavens when the dust becomes hard and the clods of earth stick
together?_
_"Do you hunt the prey for the
lioness and satisfy the hunger of the Lions when they crouch in their
dens or lie in wait in a thicket? Who provides food for the raven when
its young cry out to God and wander about for lack of food?_
So I Say: *MEDITATE*
