living on many planes

did you ever wonder why people are sometimes confused
with the things that you say
or is it only me....

I have recently come to understand
how complex/mosaic our thoughts may seem to others
when we dwell on many levels at once...

as we stand on the abyss of tomorrow today
looking out to the reality of a physical world
yet looking up in our periphery to the spirit world above

we stand in a place of understanding the big picture
between heaven and earth we stand
knowing there is a hell below...
waiting for those who have rejected truth

living in the now/not yet of time
suspended between time and space
knowing all of this may soon be over in the twinkling of an eye...
we respond to the urgency of His Spirit and beckon them to "come"

such an assignment
to hear the mind of God
and translate His heart
...to those who are His
...those that He loves
...those that He gave His Son to redeem...

sometimes it feels like too much to bear
the misundertsandings, the rejection, the slander
and then He causes me to remember...

for God so loved the world
our Father so loved the world
and so must we...selah
