Did You Know?

Did you know that your spirit has its’ desires;

   and they are not those of your flesh? 

Your flesh is not evil; It just wants some care,

  from your spirit, so that it can rest.

It won’t leave you alone, if its’ needs are not met;

   Like an undisciplined child, will take all it can get.

 But, whose fault is that? I’m thinking it’s yours; 

   We could blame it on God because He has ignored...

most petitions we’ve presented to Him;

   and then, we look stupid in the eyes of men! 

I know that He said, my spirit has power; 

   Has not understanding killed my finest hour? 

He said, if I seed to the flesh, there’s a harvest;

   In other words; I will produce;

He also said, Be not deceived

  or I could create my abuse. 

What He said He seeded to my spirit for good,

   is not like religion taught that He would.

He will not be mocked; Of that I am sure;

   But, without understanding, I could lose this war.

These pearls are a valuable commodity;

   Nothing but His Truth will suffice;

Laboring to reject any kind of deception

   to get to The Pearl of Great Price.

If whatever I seed really will produce,

   it’s important that I understand...

What really is: Seeding to the flesh;

   right now; right here, in this land? 

This tells me I do have very great power,

   to determine what is my outcome;

So, I want to be sure that when I begin,

   I have really begun.

How then, do I really sow to the flesh?

   What is the action I do? 

If you really don’t know, then, please,

   don’t speak;

I’ve had all the ‘pat answers’ I can handle

  this week.

But, if you’ve been wondering yourself,

   what He’s saying;

If you have had any inkling;

   I’d sure like to hear what He’s said to you;

If you’ve heard, perhaps, what I’m thinking.

After wading through religion, so-called;

   It seems to me, revelation:

That I’m seeded to win by Himself, Himself;

   And He will give me His explanation. 

I don’t think He’s playing a game with me;

   I think His intention is, that I will see

and be able to practically walk this out...

   to harvest all that He’s talking about.

I think, if I don’t really understand

   or it isn’t working for me;

It’s been almost heresy for me to admit,

   for fear that someone will see.

Then, by this pretense, I have to say:

   My Father sent tragedy; This is His way; 

What a grotesque figure this has brought forth;

   With a life of its own that does enforce...

I think, with my power so I never will see,

   that God’s Truth has been seeded to set all captives free. 

Is it worth exposure?  Do I want to live? 

   I find no pleasure in Satan’s sieve. 

*I just read a teaching that rocked my boat;

   But, then we discussed it; Now I’m starting to float.

Is that the vision He wants me to see?

Don’t make excuses to justify Me! 

Who do you think’s at the helm of this vessel?

   You? (that’s been seeded to see?)

I’m steering this ship, so you can admit

   and get explanation from Me! 

With you at the wheel, this ship will sink

   and drown the seed that I sowed; 

But the wings of My Spirt are over you;

   Freely ask what you need to know!

Pride and pretense will not allow this;

   They’ll build their own edifice;

But that’s not what I have seeded in you;

   My Seeded is organic: The Best!

It never decays; It never withers;

   It’s already entered its’ rest;

Its’ genetics are Mine; It’s been pre-designed

   to come through the hardest of tests.

These tests aren’t designed for your destruction;

   When you see the storms, you’ve made many assumptions;

Rather than saying, you don’t yet trust Me;

  Then, you try to give answers as if you can see;

Well, the storms that are coming, will take My view;

   That’s why I seeded Myself in you! 

Stay on the ship; That’s My place of safety;

   There’ll be no, “Man Overboard”! 

Discuss openly things you don’t understand;

   Guaranteed; You won’t be ignored! 

You’re right where I want you; Right by My side;

   There’s no place to run and no place to hide;

Soon that won’t be a necessity; Soon you will know: You are seeded in Me! 

It’s imperative you experience the depths of My Love;

This will still the storms; You’ll be totally persuaded with My ecstacy: The reason that you were born! 

Then, I can say what has been in My Heart: Well done, My Son and My Heir;

You can now navigate the strongest of storms

   and not pull into port for repair. 

There isn’t a storm that will take you from Me;

   You can navigate now, your sure destiny;

He can huff and puff, but to no avail;

   Your course is set and it’s time to set sail!!!
