Instead of Ragged... Ravished!!! When the likes of Kierkegaard and Chardin are ringing in your ears

Tick Tock.. Tick Tock.. The passing .. the passing.. the passing of the clock...

Tick.. tick.. tickticktickticktickticktick............. over and over and over again...

Running ragged...

I fell prey to the timing and pace of the world...
My eyes beheld pretty idols of large crowds and popularity and in so doing my heart lost substance...
Quickly build this house or that building.. Short cuts because time and growth is of the essence... oh please hear the large sigh in that exhale....

But then..........................................................................................

But then.....

Tears
Repentance
Remembrance

My kingdom is not of this earth nor is my citizenship, I originate from another place! A place of joy and timelessness... A place of freedom and delight! My ambassadorship upon the earth flows forth from His rivers of delight as they stream from Heaven to earth... The pace of Heaven.. The grand Selah... Instead of ragged ravished!!!!

To will the ONE thing.... To embrace the slow work of God!!!

How counter cultural.. But revolution usually is.....................................

One of my Favorite Narnian Quotes...

“One word, Ma’am,” he said, coming back from the fire; limping because of the pain. “One word. All you’ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn’t wonder. I’m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won’t deny any of what you said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things – trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that makes you real world hollow. That’s why I’m going to stand by the play-world. I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the Overland.

A Brilliant Quote from Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking

so that others won't feel unsure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in every one.

As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
