Don’t fix. Dwell.
MIC Check
Today’s Most Important Challenge is…
- Pulling people closer
- Rather than pushing them away
- When I can’t make sense of them
Yahweh Approach Memo
Continued from Innermost Circle
I am… refused.
The mummified form
Turns away
From my awakening kiss
I look to My Father.
Shouting:
“This isn’t my fault
Why did you command me
To do something
That failed?”
My Father looks to me.
He gently points out:
“I merely told you
What needed to be done”
He nods approvingly.
“To your credit
You have cultivated the habit
Of quickly taking action
To push through your revulsion
Towards something I want”
He grimaces.
“To your shame
You use this
To avoid dwelling in the tension
Or understanding the source
Of your disgust”
He points to the corpse.
“If you would kiss her
You must first earn the right
By understanding what…”
“It feels like to be her!”
To be continued
Reflection
I feel…
- Rejected
- Embarassed
- Humbled
- Clarified
Scripture
“Guide me away from temptation and doing evil. Save me from sinful habits and from keeping company with those who are experts in evil. Help me not to share in their sin in any way!
Psalms 141:4-6 TPT
When one of your godly ones corrects me or one of your faithful ones rebukes me, I will accept it like an honor I cannot refuse. It will be as healing medicine that I swallow without an offended heart.
Even if they are mistaken, I will continue to pray. When the leaders and judges are condemned, falling upon the rocks of justice, then they’ll know my words to them were true!”
Inspired by Prayers on Fire for Men
