He Was
Hidden
I asked today why He chose the way He did.
"Why", I said, "did you choose to reveal yourself through man,
thereby, losing so much of your inheritance, man." Couldn't, I
reasoned, there be a much larger harvest, Lord, if you did not choose to
reveal yourself through man? I grieve, you must grieve at the
loss.
He said, "He did not want worship because of His
power or Glory. He wanted to be loved because of His character, His
goodness, His inner beauty. That's why , He said, I came the first
time not attractive that any should desire Me for looks or likeable
personality. I still come today the same way in you. To be
seen by those who are truly wanting My love and truly desiring My beauty
and graciousness. Truly, they are attracted to the real Me.
This I desire, however, not many are. Sadly, not many are.
That is what grieves you. My heart is longing for My
true love. Many still worship themselves. Their ideal is a
better self. That is why they don't respond to the light they might
see. Light attracts but not if they love darkness. It is
important that My light bearers are bearing My light. This is why
the emphasis has been on dying to self. Be not as the world, My
people, loving self. For My light to shine in you so the world will
be able to see if they want to, is for you to not consider your own ways
but yield to mine. You know the way. You know when yourself is
having its own way because you ask for forgiveness. Its pleasurable
to the sin nature, but My desire must be yielded to. My life will
give life to others who are looking. That is why not many who are
wise, rich or beautiful seek Me; but the gospel of good news is
preached to the poor and poor of heart. They are not satisfied but
are looking, saying, is that all there is? You are My light reaching
like a beacon to them. Therefore, My people, be open minded to my
ways and thoughts. The ones I am drawing are not the beautiful
people . Do not look past them using your own judgement. My
harvest field is there, not usually where you are looking though.
Repent concerning your own pride. Ask to see My harvest, that
you not look past them."
