As long as the heart is not sealed closed there is space for the spirit of God to flow through, for His love to bust open the seams (openness to accept the destruction of the outerselves). Only after accepting and welcoming the ideals of life that have been destroyed can I welcome the true real purpose of what IS.
As the skin of the grapefruit are bitter
and the layers of onion need peeling
so does the sinful nature of ourselves
As Lord peels away the bitterness
we taste His sweetness
Without the skin of the fruit
or the shell of the nut
they would not produce good meat
The need shelter while they mature
Without the sun and the rain
they would not grow and produce
Oh My! How I see when my eyes are open. How I hear when my mind is open. How I love when my heart is open!!
