PASTORAL VISITATION

Austine Kay

 weekend, I was privileged to have a brother pay me a visit.  This is a brother who had his fair share of persecutions, tribulations and trials for many years in the hands of evil and envious people who thought they own the right to the  life of others. And his visit has left  a fountain of joy in my heart that caused me to look at life with different lense. 

 so says the Bible. But can we  flip it to read " 

By my fruits I shall know myself or they shall know me

". Yaah, putting  ourselves under the lense, it is a difficult exercise to do. It is always easier to point accusing fingers to others. But to look within and point out our own mistakes to self, it is hard but necessary. Often, we love to look at what others are doing or not doing, and how these actions or inactions are making our lives so difficult, sad, angery, mad, and full of rage.  

 today I want us to forget those around us for a while: what they do or do not do to make our life happy or otherwise., Rather let's focus our attention on ourselves to ask "what fruits am I bearing?" "How am I coming across to others" "Can the spirit within me give a good account or bear witness to my good works?   what kind of feedbacks I do get from those I come across daily?  Do my actions leave good or bad memories with people?. Here, my visitor told me the story of Joseph of the Bible and how he carried himself throughout his trials  to make his point.

 the creator of  this universe, puts us here to express Himself and taste this 3D world through our individual and collective experiences. We are therefore a divinity because  the presence of  His spirit is in each and every one of us.   Christ in us is His fullness which always bears witness to the dimensions of expression, the Father wanted to have through each of us. This means that whatever is thrown at us from those we encounter in our daily life, is an expression of divinity. Hence It is not for us to determine what our neighbors have to do or not to do, because we do not know what actions or inactions their spirits bear witness to. Just believe that all things work for good for those who trust their God.

 this reason, the Bible admonishes us not to judge so that we will not be judged. Rather we should learn to acknowledge the divinity in everyone we come across and accept their actions as messages from God.  Because we can never tell  if whatever they do to us, is  a divine direction or not unless it is revealed to you. Therefore, all we have to do is to continue putting our good fruits out there, to allow God directs His people to bear witness. For what is in it for us then, if God wants a 'evil neighbor' to tarry in his/her actions till He comes? 

 if a neighbor wants to do 'evils' throughout his existence on earth till he/ she dies, maybe that is what the father wanted to experience through such a soul. Therefore, it doesn't matter whatever they may throw at us, like Joseph,  we should learn to say "you have intended it for evil but God has turned it around for good". For in this life it is all about experiences; there is no good or bad action (in its real sense) but only a description of our taste of such experience. What we rather have is: High vibration actions and Low Vibration actions that create joy/happiness or sadness/irritation in our bodies depending on our own individual level of body  vibration. But mind you, if your body vibration is low and high vibration actions is directed to you it can also create unpleasant reaction in your body. Thus we say the truth hurts.

, I am glad you make it here with me. The truth is, the 

 too much on the actions or inactions of  those who are around us. For in the 

 they are all here to help us Reflect the 

 who lives in us the hope glory. YES! ALL THOSE IN OUR LIVES ARE OUR DIVINE HELPERS
