There is no formula for living. No script, act, procedure or routine can teach you how to live. Life is larger than anything and all else answers to it. All life then answers to the life-Maker who receives pleasure from His works called creation. Within this magnificent realm of mystery and adventure, four dynamics stand out and beckon for closer examination
PAUSE TO CONSIDER
I am speaking of TIME, HEALTH, MONEY & DESIRE. These must haves are always present and in different measures and proportions designed exclusively for the human being to grab of hold of and implement as they are revealed. How one goes about this makes for part of their identity & purpose
YOU ARE INVITED
No thinking or planning is required but instead an action which by the way is not coincidental. We humans are motion machines designed to participate in life to whatever extent one wishes too. The whole concept is one giant invitation to live & not just exist. Reject this and it still goes on
TIME: What a strange dynamic this is. Past, present and future exist in this realm and we visit with all three. Time allows us to to do or not do and when one catches their flow as to how and when to travel as well as where, an adventure unfolds. Everything we do (or don't) is on the clock which never stops
It gets even more interesting because the adventure is a mystery even if you have a familiarity about the journey. Why? Every micro-second presented for us to step into has never held us before or us that second thus making for no two journeys are alike and a different experience second to second
HEALTH: Take note of this. One must become a good steward of this if it is to serve the recipient of it. Here we will find fitness, well-being and effortless help in living and maintaining what we already have been given. We can then apply to any task knowing we have this behind us & with us always working
Some people push the limits of their well-being through abuse and indifference. Bad habits, comfort zones, trial & error and poor choices all take their tolls on ones health.
MONEY: In this particular dynamic, the days of singing for ones supper have waned & something more practical has taken its place. I provide a service or product in return for another service or product & a surplus appears where I can then expand & diversify what I'm doing & where I am going. It opens portals to get to destinations & circumstances. From there, anything can happen
It has long been said that money is the root of all evil incorrectly. It is the love of money that causes one to stumble and more importantly, become poor in spirit. You cannot serve two masters
DESIRE: Very mysterious dynamic that works when given but if ignored, takes away as well. The get up and go is not to be disrespected or toyed with but instead, when presented, used. Carpe Diem is appropriate which is to seize the day and the desire is the assist to do so. Consider this a gentle push from above for a reason. This dynamic also goes by the nickname of "want to".
ENDLESS COMBINATIONS & TIMINGS
It is interesting to note that variations of the four principals apply to everyone at different times and circumstances that we call experiences. Each one of us has a different experience even if we are doing the same or similar journey at the same time. Life remains and serves a distinct purpose as follows...
HEAR YE
Life is presented in such an unobtrusive way making a distinct but all so obvious point that is submitted to every person using the law of self-evidency i.e. that there is a LIFE-MAKER & we are immersed in His planning & purpose unless we are not. Therein lies the riddle of life. The "why" & the "how" beckons
UH-OH
Therein also lies the problem. Each one of us has created their own way which is in conflict with the true way or creation purpose for one being here. If we were made for God, by God and His pleasure and live a life in conflict to this, then unrest, discontent and lack of fulfillment shows itself for us to correct
WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE
Be assured we are all wanted by virtue of the fact that we are here. The liberty and freedom that comes with this realization further testifies to something so great that we are given the ability to pursue the subject to our satisfactions. In other words, the SOURCE of it all has made it so you may know HIM no matter what course presents itself. The only thing remains is if you want to
May you want to
