the prince who wished he was a pauper
Sometimes wouldn’t a simple life be sufficient, many complications in life spin off from unwarranted chain of thoughts that seem to erode our innate sense of rational understanding. Which in fact, what would such derivative thoughts fruit?
I have a wild imagination, one that runs with the wind, doesn’t settle for stagnancy. Yet in a whirlwind of thoughts, I can only think along the same line and as it spirals higher and higher I get sick of the constant revisiting of nightmares.
We all have our fears in life, I had a undisclosed fear of heights at some point in my life, I had was afraid of gas tanks with the underlying fear of explosions, I even had problems looking people in the eye. But what have I done to them, did I run? Sure I did, but it caught up with me every single time. I look back and my fears are like a shadow, inseparable and always there.
My only option was to face it, but doing it alone would be crazy, insane and out of my complete rationale. It took me prayer and courage, to step out of my box of comfort. And through the Lord Jesus Christ my God he turned on the lights in the darkest corners of my life, I jumped out of a plane a thousand feet in the air, I manage to fully enjoy having a steamboat with a gas tank in between my legs (that took some time getting used to btw) and now I can look at people face to face. What has changed in me? Nothing physically to be honest …
I constantly seek penance for the wrong doings I have done in my life, I seek forgiveness for my foolish actions and there are times I feel undeserving. Yet in contrast, there are times I believe I deserve more that what I have, and watching and hoping isn’t going to bring me anywhere. I will grow my talents and be accountable to my provider, I will multiply and make a worthy investment.
With that said, are you still in darkness? Or do you want to let God turn on your lights?
