A FELT Monologue
The True Story called God
In many societies, people share their stories for diverse reasons. Sometimes, there are no comfortable grounds to tell the often sad experiences and occurrences which happened to them along their journeys of life. Some people, nevertheless, go ahead and share; damning all consequences. Whilst others hoard, hide and keep their stories, which hitherto could have restructured someone else’s mindset, zeal and determination, all to themselves and pass on.
Others however others find good, pleasant and tangible reasons, strong enough to motivate themselves to move from here to even space and back to confront any mistrust and condemnation just to tell their stories.
For sure, when you have discovered God’s purpose for your life, you will be happier to go to any extent to the story of how you overcome challenges, problems, issues situations, conflicts, confrontations, circumstances and difficulties.
There are diversities of thoughts about the facilitations for overcoming such encounters in life and thereafter the advantage force that make people into their prosperity and glory in your Ambition, Business and Care of life even by the spirit and might of determination and focus. But how many people can know the process, the pathways and the stamina cum even the vision to proceed on such drive?
I am sure that you can find many theories around about many happenings of things, words, opportunities and beings that interface with the creation of the great or bad stories of people. And surely, the concept of God means different things to different people and is often left out. But all writings and stories in books, interviews, magazines ans so on must do the appropriate justice to the Creator by providing, at least at the outset, context and clear definition(s) to the term and personality called God who controls all things by his Grace.
How would the reality of God be heard and taught when simple Maths and Grammar can even differ based on where you come from, who teaches you and even the situate of your location.
And I dare to say that the educational system in certain territories teach students in the classrooms and lecture halls to regurgitate text book knowledge on their exams papers with no critical thinking emphasis on what we can do with this great gift called the brain for which great innovations and audacity are being churned out.
To a certain question, yes, I see that beyond the classroom skills which are subject to rapid change because of ideas, behaviors, technology and idiosyncrasies of humanity, there are evidence based and recurring developments that humanity is really evolving into greater knowledge and enablements in our stratosphere.
The aftermath of many forms of study often causes the students, and also stations the average person to remain backward and sometimes primitive on current global trends, sometimes with no ideas on how to catch up with the rest of the advanced and elite technological world.
Sure, I can concur that the concept of God for some faith-based people is fully reliant on Judaism, Christian, Moslem and other religious perspectives, ideologies and understandings. So, for such persons, any other concepts about God is not of too much significance to them and definitely not of interest to read.
I am now certain that the divinity in the heart of Man determines and directs that no matter the personalized concept, since man’s mental and spiritual re-creation, man has always found a way to look for his creator God.
It is thus important and relevant to situate your context of God in the right perspective of first ans foremost, pleasing the God of the works and the faith as well as completing the purpose to which the targeted audience are addressed. But who are these audiences who hear the storylines or the whole story?
The target audience are those that the Spirit of God has purposed to increase their knowledge of Him as called and/or chosen. But the point is this: if you believe that the inanimate cannot birth the animate,then you can also believe that humans cannot be birthed from the Big Bang concept. It is real that there is a being, who is sovereign, whose handiwork we all are a product of, whether we believe it or not.
I remember Darwin the father of Evolution said before he died.
He was so amazed about creation and said ” the way things are well organized he is sure there is an Architect behind creation”. This is what our genetics lecturers told us at the University. This bit is not highlighted because some people are afraid it will throw away all those “evolution” concepts.
Identifying your audience is so fundamental to any literary work. It sets the tone for context and message. You underestimate or gloss over it at your own peril. This will limit the readership numbers of the theists and the agnostics. This is good counsel to the non-crusading profit oriented business man
Indeed the readers’ intelligence cannot be wished away when the cannot easily align with the stories as told. I stand to be corrected and maybe probably the rocks are blocking my thinking cup from seeing the manifestations and perspectives but I have learnt and experience that God is real and this God is everywhere at every time – He is Omnipresent and He is Omnipotent.
And clearing by insights into the mysteries of Deut 29 vs 29 and mainly by provoking the blessings of Mercy, Grace and Favour as well as impacting Wisdom and Knowledge to some people for others to get the requisite understanding ( Exo 31 vs 1-5), God has made all things beautiful even through the stories of many people that Man can understand that God exist.
There is a true story called God and you can also experience this Person called God to relate and talk with Him with and on your stories, matters and subjects.
God bless you!
