~Open the eyes of my heart Lord!~

And What is Wisdom?

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God,who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. James 1:5.
I asked. I opened my soul and waited. And He gave.
Its taken years for this knowledge to sink in, to make sense, TO GROW...
The seed, planted, watered, nurtured, growing.

But now...
...what do I do with it?
...this knowledge I've gained.

I want to shout from the rooftops...
YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG!!!
Can't you see?
You got it all wrong...

My soul cries,
heart broken,
mind broken,
the knowledge gained,
but the heart hurting.

Once the eyes are opened,
The truth is seen.
THE EYES OF LOVE THAT ARE THE TRUTH.
The TRUTH that sets you FREE!
And freedom is great.
And freedom comes at a cost.
A very big cost.
But that cost, was paid by God,
For God.
God says HE has paid this debt.
HE has done the deed.
HE is the one who decides,
He tosses out the old law, and brings in a NEW law.
The NEW Covenant:

“The days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah. It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they did not remain faithful to my covenant, and I turned away from them, declares the Lord. This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.”
By calling this covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear Hebrew 8:8-13

The old laws? Thrown out, by God Almighty Himself.
The sins? Forgiven, Forgotten, by God Almighty Himself.
The new laws? Inscribed forever on your heart, by God Almighty Himself.

And who can argue with God?
For if He throws out the law, who would still abide in it?
Do not wallow in the trash.
Instead, set your mind to learn the NEW ways,
The NEW covenant,
Written on our Hearts,
And in our Minds,
BY GOD ALMIGHTY HIMSELF!!
For that is the TRUTH that sets you FREE.
