My Compelling Ambition
There's no hurry with God. He's never late he's never behind. He's always on time.
Even in the lateness of time, humanly thinking, it’s never too late for God to still work his plan for His people, however as he so wills that to be, until our upward taking.
With me, oral communication not particularly my expertise, I began "blogging," as a means of expressing my faith in the Lord Jesus (Adonai Yeshua) through writing – my work for God’s Kingdom on earth while watching for the King’s return.
My prayer: that God will touch other peoples' lives, with the love of Jesus, as he has touched mine through my transient life experiences; that they may realize as well his global purpose and plan for them.
My writing ambition is rooted in a challenge with which I was impressed via the third verse of a favorite hymn as quoted below. Maybe other Christ-followers as well with a writing ambition will likewise accept the challenge for Christ’s cause:
Could we with ink the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky.
And so my continual prayer is that my writings – as well as my talk and my walk – would indeed reflect the love of God for all peoples. A more worthy goal, I believe, more so than laboring merely for the fattening of a financial portfolio that would enable one to enjoy a leisurely lifestyle in those “golden years” (see Luke 12:18-21).
Nothing holds my attention more in this physical realm these days than the things of God. Everything else here temporally – every other temporal ambition – can become mere distractions from the cause of Christ. Those laboring in his cause on planet Earth, as God has promised, have realized that he is their provider, sustainer, and enabler (see Matthew 6:25-32)
"Seek the Kingdom of above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need," (Matthew 6:33.)
