You’ll Find Your Tribe
Discovering the meaning of life, our purposes, and what the truth actually is … is a mind-boggling experience to say the least, lol. What we think we know and what we come to know could literally either make us or break us. Even the term “make us or break us” has a different and much greater meaning than the standard English interpretation.
To be “made” is to come to a more complete understanding of the seen and unseen world around us and the roles we’re designed to play in them. To be “broken” is to reject the naked truth because it’s not at all what we’ve been told by others. It’s to stunt our growth by choosing to remain inside of a specific box instead of continuing the refinement processes offered.
People say the Almighty doesn’t give us anything we can’t handle, but that’s not true at all. He gives us precisely what we can’t handle so we will rely on His strength to get through it. He allows us to go through things that only He can remedy and gives us just enough understanding that we will have to trust in Him completely to decipher it … if it’s in His will.
Not all knowledge is good knowledge. Not all gifts are assigned to all of us or approved for our access. We get what we get according to His will, and we discover what we discover based on His method of refining each one of us. We can choose to do what He wants us to do with our portions of knowledge and gifts, or we can choose to ignore them or completely delude ourselves into thinking they’re ours. Nothing is ours. We’re all vessels placed here and gifted according to His purpose.
It’s His world, His plan, His creation, and His show. He is the Almighty, the All Powerful, the great I Am, the Beginning, the End, and everything in between. He’s the Owner of the Souls and the Father of Spirits — all spirits. Remember that. The Good Book says so on many pages, but life experiences help us fully understand the depth of the text.
Every day, I am in even greater awe of Him than I was the previous day. My entire life makes absolute sense now, and the inner peace embeds itself even further into my being.
That doesn’t mean life in this current world is perfect, though. It’s quite the opposite. Sometimes it’s tough as hell — the trials, the tribulations, the battles, the legions of enemies, the big and small “fires,” etc.
The world can seem like quite a circus sometimes, but we must remember it’s just a stage for now, and we all have parts in its play. Some will be foot soldiers, some organizational leaders, some “media” personalities, evangelists, teachers, healers, “regular” job holders, entrepreneurs, etc. It’s all okay as long we remember who’s the Number One Boss and Main Star and that our primary purpose is to serve HIM and others.
FINDING YOUR TRIBE
Every person will find their tribe eventually. Things will just click one day, and like individuals will gravitate toward one another. Trying to rush the process can lead to folly or unnecessary battles. I know because I’ve been there, trying to fit in with a group I wasn’t meant to fit into.
When you meet your appropriate tribe, you won’t have to shrink to fit or compromise to matter. You’ll just know you belong. You might not agree with every single philosophy, belief, practice, or viewpoint, but you’ll be able to discuss those matters among each other and support one another. You’ll be able to correct one another in love and not condemn each other for this or that. No envy or malice will exist within the circle, and you’ll know what’s in each other’s hearts because you’ll be told.
Thanks to all who responded to my last few posts. I appreciate the comments.
Today’s another day, and we’re all still here. All praises to the Most High. Have a blessed one.
