Since I was kid, I was always one who could sit alone in silence for 2-3 hours wide awake and alert just thinking intently on a topic.
A wise mentor told me a precious secret: "Thinking is how you win."
The story is one day in my mid 20s I heard the phrase "seek and you will find" several times randomly from different people over the course of a few days. It really stuck with me and shortly after, I had a profound revelation…
By NOT yet "deciding that I WANTED to know" MORE about my existence in relation to God, I had (by default) Decided I DID NOT WANT to know more about God than what my pastor had told me.
I'm much happier and closer to God now.
"For I have told you, ye are gods; sons and daughters of the Most High." ~Psalm 82:6.
Later referenced by Jesus in John 10:34.
Know yourself.
Think on it a little frens...
Christianity was neutered by Pauline church who removed all of the mysticism and esoteric nature of Christianity.
And unfortunately most American churches are protestant so really they're all just about subjugation and care more about gender identity or female midriff showing than actual spiritual warfare
That shit always amazes me...
Everybody be all like, "I ain't skeered, cuz the Lord is my shepherd, and he's got my back through the valley of the shadow of death"
But ...
A few moments later ...
"Meditation (etc) is newage and the debble - don't dare look beyond this pasture! Baaaa!!!!"
GTFOOH. It's totally retarded.
Especially when Christ told you to meet him in the temple built without human hands. Now where do you suppose that is, dumbass???
THANK YOU TaQo!
