When Patterns After Me (Christianity)
Sometimes, motivated by dilemma, burgeoning outcries in social polemics of the day, I feel the need to ask myself:
Do you ever gather more than you need? You make your priorities into a path, a path which leads you into acquiescing levels of power to push past bylines, bylines which always tell you the world is busy spinning backward on your goals and perfect plan. Hold on a bit more into your thirties and the perfectness drains your plan dish-clean.
So, you scrap the plan. You sit calm about an hour. It was a day-to-day; you realize the fleeting temporal state. Halt, therapy session. Why do others & why do people carry on, keep pushing themselves forward? I mean, I couldn’t see this or that person you keep hiding from the rest of the world. All they (whose game is the talk of society) don’t see that person you hide in that hard-ironed plan of yours. Stop.
Focus up is idiomatic but sometimes it works. I find it pertinent for me. Don’t hesitate to be authentic. The great leaders of the world did not hesitate to be authentic, take Jesus Christ for a minute-too-long example. Humility and servitude as leadership? Preach that. The average man can be prone to hypocrisy, sometimes? That’s the depth of being human. Please and thank you. Seek kindness. Don’t flee the scene.
Learn to grow from others and your mistakes. Be refined in the mundane. Achieve good things, but be okay with the truth that those goods could never really exist solely because of you.
And that dish-clean result that I was so wanting, now, as it so turns out, tempers against real genuine faith burning and consuming that happy self-anger all away.
Keep being proven, you’re not the typical folk.
