The Unfolding

Like any parent of more than one child, the Father sees in each of us some unique piece of Himself, a rib that still fits into His chest. We are irreplacably connected. Since He sees the end from the beginning, He's able to trace the way that the rose will open, even when it's tightly clenched with full light not yet at its center. The finished picture remains in His mind, and the process of unfolding is expected and doesn't drive Him away. He is light without darkness, and has also endowed us with the instinct to progress toward day fully realized.'

“Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise. Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails.”- Proverbs 19:20-21
