Omnivision

All of my Life I have found myself resistant to programming. 
I believe this aspect of my personality has made me compatible with the Angular Thinking that comes from what I call, Omnivision. 

Like the compound eye of the dragonfly. I choose to not commit to one singular point of view. I see so many variations at once.


There are times when this is a hindrance. Especially when I must process quickly. But most of the time I find that I enjoy an interdependence that is unique and favorable to God. 

Jesus is not looking for programmed robots. Even the zeal of a freshly doused church camp experience can't give us the longevity we need to be devoted believers. 

Devotion occurs outside of the comfort of programming. Devotion is actually against the normal flow. It is a form of singularity that is also Oneness. Where the more you seek ONEness (the eternally connected perspective) ... the more you find singularity. 

It's the opposite of independence... it's the opposite of separatism.  

It is Singular and One. 

It is the button sown into the quilt. It IS the quilt now, it is no longer just a button. If you view the whole quilt, the uniquely set button becomes all the more beautiful and distinguished. If you ONLY look at the button. You will only see a lonely insignificant button and miss out in the beauty of the entire quilt. 

This is what happens when we pursue a life of navel gazing (searching for a good view of sins within ). The navel life only leads to disillusionment (the result of myopic vision). We lose sight of the whole of I AM. And only see I ME. 

Depression , suicide, mediocrity... rest on the ... I ME ... tree. Stay clear at ANY cost. (Do not love your life so much as to shrink away from losing it). 

How about instead of suicide... face the ONE THING that you are telling yourself can't be changed. And get radical! Leap into the unknown, unplanned, UNsane...thing.... and fight! Resist the programming... and live. 

For those who are seeking, I pray that you see you are lost only within your own mind. Omnivision is to see where you've been all along.

The Parable of the Snake

Once upon a time there was a serpent who was badly injured in a fight with another animal. It managed to slither away to safety but would have surely died if a benevolent man had not seen it suffering by the side of the road. The goodly man carefully wrapped the snake up and took it to his house, where he bestowed the kindest and gentlest care on the snake until it was healed and could return to the wild. Just as the man was releasing the serpent back into the grass, the ungrateful snake turned and bit him on the hand. "What did you do that for?" cried the man, who knew that the bite of this particular snake was usually fatal. "Didn't I take care of you when no one else would?" The snake shrugged (no small feat for a snake!) and replied to the benevolent--and now doomed-- man, "What did you expect? You knew I was a snake when you picked me up." We certainly know without any question that they are snakes. Time will tell if the moral of the tale is appli...

Tough Mind and Tender Heart by Martin Luther King

SERMON: A Tough Mind And A Tender Heart, by Martin Luther King, Jr. Be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. (Matthew 10:16) A French philosopher said, “No man is strong unless he bears within his character antitheses strongly marked.” The strong man holds in a living blend strongly marked opposites. Not ordinarily do men achieve this balance of opposites. The idealists are not usually realistic, and the realists are not usually idealistic. The militant are not generally known to be passive, nor the passive to be militant. Seldom are the humble self-assertive, or the self-assertive humble. But life at its best is a creative synthesis of opposites in fruitful harmony. The philosopher Hegel said that truth is found neither in the thesis nor the antithesis, but in an emergent synthesis that reconciles the two. Jesus recognized the need for blending opposites. He knew that his disciples would face a difficult and hostile world, where they would confront the recalcitrance of...

AS I SEEK

By Cherstin Jagger Mendez I seek within the ebb and flow, In every attempt for my heart to grow. I lean into the winds to see what they say. Hoping it’s secrets, it will give away. How do you live a life to the fullest? How do you push yourself beyond….? The lead weights on my feet telling me I can’t go, Due to my age or life, without much to show. For the potential within me fights every day to get out! For the voice in my heart says I can not do without … Without the land beneath my feet, Without the sound of the trees in the wind. Without the buds that bloom and tell me there’s hope, Without the love that flows from beyond my scope. Without the connection that reminds me that I’m alive, Without your heartbeat here by my side I seek again for what I cannot see. I seek again for what’s found inside of me. I seek again for the strength to persevere, As I walk among those that this world does fear …. DEDICATED TO TDCJ CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS
