Maybe my sights are set too low. I am mightily pre-sneeze. You know. That terrible place where the sneeze is all loaded, but the release does not come.
I am anticipating. It hurts, it is so acute. There is the most astounding change coming, just on the other side of the sneeze, the release. I am aching with expectation. I think I am being goaded to believe that it is a breakthrough in my life, a stepping off into a new fulfillment of my human potential. Then I realize that it is the ache, the universal ache for the kingdom of God, for the dominion that is ours in Christ. This aching place is my place, the place from which I pray, "Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done in the earth as it is in Heaven."
I can see that in the meantime, staying faithful to my calling is changing my circumstances in the earth. God help me to resist settling for the human kingdom.
God Daddy, it is good to ache for your embrace, for the advancement of your holiness into this place. Thank you for the aching fire.
