Evading the inevitable

:

+$7 is important is to never let the conscious perish. There are situations and circumstances that we have seen at play in our lives. $nd time and time again, we seem to still wonder how they transpired and reasons for their occur rence. Some things we can’t change. The most ignorant thing we can try and do, is to avoid something that is inevitable.

I understand we may not have been particu larly skilled at acceptance. However some bat tles are worn through it. When something is like a predictable sequence of events it means it’s definitely going to happen.

0ost times we hang onto the deception of a heart that refuses to accept even a bit of change. $ heart that wishes for egotistic gain, a heart that seeks revenge and not forgiveness.

Inevitable means incapable of being avoided, evaded or escaped. Something that is certain, fated and unalterable. When something is in evitable, it means the only control we have over it is to minimise the consequences or the impact it will have on us.

Basically fleeing is not an option no matter what. We can flee with our hearts and we can flee by ignoring situations and by pretending through denial that they are not real or they will not happen to us. We can also refute that so many things will never change yet they are changing right before our eyes. So fleeing in its many forms from something that is inevita ble is utterly hopeless.

When something is inevitable it always up sets the balance of things, the balance of emo tions, and the balance psychologically. It up sets our stagnation and threatens to overthrow that which we have held most dear to us, even if that thing wasn’t working and gave us some sort of pleasure, but unbeneficial and utterly unfruitful.

REDEMPTION

Consequently most of us are always fighting to restore something that will be ultimately de stroyed instead of thinking about a redemption plan. We can salvage some things through a redemption plan, we can restore what was bro ken through a redemption plan, however that can only happen if we accept that evading the inevitable is hopeless.

I understand this is not a bridge that we like crossing, because letting things go, things from the past at times means we must feel again how they felt and then accept that they have passed. We can minimise the pain they caused even forget it if we accept that they happened and caused a stirring of different emotions.

There are feelings and emotions we need to accept for them to pass that’s inevitable. 5e moving structures that have been in existence for a long time is not easy.

It needs a whole lot of calmness which ema nates from honesty. Honesty at accessing what is coming and not evading the truth. We can only redeem a situation by first of all accepting that it is going to happen thereby limiting the long term impact of it and its consequences.

0ost of us understand that something that hurts the most is one that happens unexpect edly because it then becomes difficult to re cover from. However, when one is expected, it should not be evaded as if it will not happen, but should be accepted and the consequences of it managed.

When consequences of a thing are managed, the impact is then not as devastating as it was going to be.

So what I mean is, we cannot evade the in evitable however we need to accept it and we need to prepare for it. If something is coming and it will transform our lives then it really needs attention.

I truly do not believe that we were created to let things catch us off guard. However we need the wisdom to understand that if we accept that the situation will change, then there has to be a plan in action to accommodate that change.

If something is inevitable our minds and hearts are to prepare for it, not deny its mani festation. Our reception to it should not be ag gressiveness. Honesty is a powerful element in assisting us through the process of not fleeing. Occasionally we can be flooded with so many thoughts and sometimes hear so many voices over and over, however we can make decisions that will have less devastating effects.

There is absolutely nothing new under heaven, we have witnessed and sometimes heard of people who defied the odds and chose to represent truth and save a lot of people in the process.

PROCESS

The /ord himself in +HEUHZV made a first covenant obsolete by establishing a new one and in the process certain things disap peared.

They were things that used to be of signifi cance in the old covenant but those structures lost the value that was attached to them and they used to be imperative, but he found it fitting to remove them, maybe because those things were irrelevant and had become a hin drance to the intimacy he desires it to have with humanity. He chose to establish a new one. The /ord already had a plan for redemp tion he chose to establish a new one.

$ plan of redemption over what was coming. It is written that when *od speaks of a new covenant, it means he has made the first one obsolete, it is out of date and will soon disap pear because this one he spoke of was a prom ise of redemption by *od to people as individ uals rather than as a nation and on the basis of *od’s grace rather than a person’s adherence to the law.
