Tipping Point Momentum

This present suffering of the earth,
the land and all our relations,
is the inescapable effect of being born
into a ‘fallen world’.

Watch over your heart with all diligence, for out of it flows the issues of life.
(Prov. 4:23)

Our remedy is not only in “knowledge and skills”
which tends to exclusion between the ‘haves’ and the ‘have nots’:
fear-based opportunity for pride and power plays, disdain and disgust.

We know indeed we all have knowledge. 

Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
(1 Cor. 8:1)  

Rather, healing is to be sought and found
in “relationships and connection”,
which signals invitation and inclusion:
humble opportunity for mutuality and collaboration,
validation and respect.

The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, 

and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. 

For out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks.
(Luke 6:45)

We must embrace the best of of knowledge and skills
within the context of relationships and connection:
a culture of honor and sharing.

The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life.

(Proverbs 10:11)

Do not let kindness and truth leave you; Bind them around your neck, 

Write them on the tablet of your heart.
(Proverbs 3:3)

Key to this shift in consciousness
is at the very core of all that is within us:
our ability to choose, seek and find
the very heart of the One Who is our Maker:
the great I AM, Creator of All.

Be still, and know that I am God: 

I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
(Psalm 46:10)

Lovingkindness and truth have met together; 

Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
(Psalm 85:10)

If not us, who?

And the seed whose fruit is righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

 (James 3:18)

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
(Matt 5:9)

For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God.
(Romans 8:19)

If not now, when?
