I don’t know much, but there’s one thing I’m sure of in the Kingdom. Tension. I was going to write a complete sentence but I don’t know enough to say much more about it. 😂
Thinking about it, if you turn somebody upside down, they immediately feel the pressure and tension of that position. And so it is with the Kingdom of God. We have to hold things lightly, knowing the upside down ways don’t fit into the boxes we desperately need them to…the weak things are strong. The first are last. Winning often looks like losing and losing is so often, in fact, winning. Tension. Unexplainable tension.
I’ve been wrestling pretty hard through some of this tension mud and I’ve gotta be honest with you - some of it is clouding my vision. The muds on my eyes friends and I don’t know if I’m supposed to wipe it off or wait for Jesus to come spit on it (🤣🙃)…time will tell I guess…
I’d say the biggest tension I’ve been holding space for lately is all around productivity and time. On one hand I’ve been understanding in a new way the complete treasure God has placed inside of each one of us, and I’m realizing that unless I express it outwardly the world misses out, and I do too. But on the other hand, the doing can’t be for getting things done sake. Somehow we’ve got to just be…but also, do. Hmph. 🤷🏻♀️
I would say “more on this later,” but I said I was going to stop making those kind of promises…so TTFN! 💕 and Happy Monday!
