How can you ride a llama allowing it spit you in the eye and still fight those giraffes that charging at you? Ever feel like you are in a place in life where you have been dealt a llama to ride, a creature that spits, and possibly in your eye, and the things that are attacking you are giraffes. Why a giraffe cause there are odd animal that you would never suspect of having the ability or capability to attack you. A very weird but provoking thought, that the least likely link in our armor in life is our greatest weakness.
We spend countless of minutes, hours, days and even years to suppose ideas that we have assured our defenses from allowing ourselves from experiencing any surprising onslaughts of circumstances, deception, and anything we may not for see. For what? Have we not learned in thousands of years and beyond that we have very little control over this life we live. It can be summed up to or taken to its lost common factor, which is Pride. Pride keeps up on our balls of our feet to make plans of defense and then a counter attack for offense so that we seemed to be protected from all things that may disillusionment into our lives. Pride keeps us from admitting how hopeless we really are in not being able to control the world around us. A self-abasement, self-centered, self-conceited Pride will kill us and bring havoc into our lives as well as others.
Why this rant and rave about Pride, it is due to pride I have lost much in my life. Pride in thinking that I am the savior to my own problems. Pride in my own finite wisdom. Pride in that what I offer in only offered by me alone.
The reversal of this fact is that no one, and even myself has to stay seated on a llama that spits in your eye and is taking you towards giraffes as they attack you. Cause as stupid an idiotic as that statement is, we have a choice. How will you choose? How will I choose? The chose is simple, choose to Love as God Loves... But hard to do, for we are so full of ourselves.
I have been reminded this week that from news of my niece that is been diagnosed as being deaf. A child I most likely will never know due to pride in my life and the pride of others. A child that was born into a world of self-absorb people, like you and me, and is deaf because of the pride of life... that was committed thousands of years ago by our forefather and foremother. The thorn in our flesh that plagues all humankind, not one person is immune. Except for one in our own history, His name is Jesus the Nazarene. The only person that can right the wrongful act of pride that (sin) that leads farther from our Sustainer.
Maybe it is beneficial for us to ride on a llama that spits in our eye as we are being attack by giraffes....
