“Caught moments”
"For the real things"
The desire of every man is to touch the real things. True words, true church, a real relationships, etc. There is nothing wrong with that, even commendable at the time of indifference in which we live. If we need to answer the question what things are true, we should come to that question first - "what things are stable and have eternal value“. If things that surround us are temporary, if what excites us now is used only in this life, we really are woeful, surrounded by counterfeits.
Surely this is not our destiny! At the very dawn of our ancestor Adam, the original inspiration of vitality, our first inspiration was real life, because there was beginning but not end. When we opened our eyes, the first image we saw was the true God who has neither beginning nor end. We were invited to an endless relationship and give us eternal heritage!
We tasted of eternal things by our ancestor Adam - this left a deep print in our spiritual essence. This is our aim even if we do not realize it.
Unfortunately, during this drive towards goal, disappointments visit us and we often quit pleasing ourselves with temporary things that are not useful in eternity.
Someone would say that everything sounds very general. Well, let's talk specifically. For example, God calls us to a real, live relationship (with Him and between us) - we are pleased with the formalism of religion and superficial relationships between us. He offers us a real life that never goes over - we are trying to win this world, even if this harms our eternal reward. Temporary things that surround us, become our obsession, which imperceptibly shifts the value of our eternal vocation. We have to decide whether we are a part of this world or not, do we live in tents (waiting for a city whose architect and builder is God) or "concrete homes“ which we do not want to leave even if we hear His call for" evacuation "(the one who reads let understand, I write you as you are spiritual people./
Sometimes we forget that our calling is not only to find him once, but to seek Him constantly.
When we believed we faced the True One and after that we are expected to live real life. What was reality at our first meeting with the Creator, when we were born again? Was not it exciting, was not it an experience, was not it first love? Is our life now corresponding with that first experiece or has become a routine of worn concepts and cliches. "Do we care" that we are full inside with bitter envy and indefensibility and sometimes we talk and behave inappropriate to our call as children of God Almighty? When we believed for a first time were we able to allow ourselves doing these thing we do today?
We are called to live our lives that we take in the excitement with which we have experienced because there is not only one meeting, but series of exciting experiences in a deep relationship with the Beloved of our hearts.
That is real life. People who are looking for the same things are our true friends and „relatives“ in Christ. The church, which preaches these values and this longing is true Church of Christ. Faith, which provokes us and motivates us to this aspiration is the true faith ....
Dear friends, be in search of, because the one who seeks will surely find!
