This entry could be entitled “A Message from God.”
But I took the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory once and they asked if I’m a messenger from God. I don’t think they thought the answer, “yes,” was a good thing.
Nonetheless, you may need to hear this. Only you know if you do…
I need to be able to trust you with the loneliness of it all. You know I love you. That needs to be enough.
I knew you before I called you.
No more bargains. No more “Give me this and I’ll do that.”
No more dependence upon the structures. They aren’t a substitute for trusting me. (And they aren’t trustworthy Believe me. Been there. Done that. Have the scars to prove it.)
No more reporting relationships that absolve you of moral and spiritual responsibility. Life is not something that someone else made this way. Life is, for the most part, the sum total of your choices.
No more refuge in the established way of doing things. I am not willing to have my voice muffled by the soft comforts of “we’ve always done it this way.”
Now it is time to live out of what I have taught you. Yesterday doesn’t matter. Tomorrow might not come. Indecision is a decision. Do something. Anything.
Exercise your freedom. Take a risk.
Just be sure it is out of love for me and for those around you.
