Seek Me

Hello, you. Bet you never would have thought you’d be sitting here in a million years. Well, guess what? You are. Man, you’ve been through quite a bit in this life of yours. Well, maybe I should say that life of yours. Yes, it was a roller coaster. You shed many unnecessary tears and all the while, even when you did not know it; even when you did not care, I was there. Oh, I remember the day you were born. Hmm, I remember the day you were conceived. As a matter of fact, I can even remember the when you were predestined. Now, that’s a story. If you’ve got a minute or two I’d love to tell you about it.

Now, let’s see. It was way before time was invented. That’s why you don’t quite remember everything about yourself. It’s something, you know. Once you became intoxicated with time your memory began to diminish. Almost like a chain around your mind. But don’t worry, slowly but surely you will get your memory back. All of it.

Oh, there I go again getting of the subject. Okay, now where was I? Eternity. Yes, eternity is where it all began. Right smack dab in the loins of The Eternal One, to be exact. You were then and still are now, a very peculiar fellow. You see while you were in Heaven with God, while all the other spirit beings were playing with the angels you would be off somewhere looking for God. Most of the others thought it was the strangest thing. I mean, it being that God was everywhere. You could feel His love and the love of His son as well as the Holy Spirit, as they all are One. It just wasn’t enough for you. And just like a Father, the Lord would feel virtue leaving Him by the touch of your thoughts wanting to be closer. And right away in the physical presence of God you were. He would pick you up and place you on His lap and tell you about the plans He has for your life. You would smile and wonder when this life would take place.

“ In just a little while,” The Lord would respond to the curious look on your face. “I’ve got so much work for you to do.”

“Where?” you asked

“ Down there,” The Eternal One pointed down towards a dark, unformed and empty mass well below the Heaven’s firmament.

I wish you could have seen the look on your face. You thought God had to have been joking. You knew how much He loved you back then. So you looked back up into the eyes of the Beholder and said,

“Yeah, right. Like you would send anyone down there. It’s desolate and dark you are full of Glory you wouldn’t send anyone down there.

“I already have!” exclaimed the Holy One. “Look” He pointed once more and your eyes left the eyes of Jehovah and traced the length of His right arm all the down to His index finger.

The Lord chuckled at your expression. Your mouth fell wide open as you pierced through a transparent veil and inhaled the beauty of what is now called earth. The snow capped mountains, the luscious green plains, and the twisting rivers captivated your attention until you saw something move.

“What’s that?” you questioned God.

“That is you,” spoke the Lord with pleasure.

“Me! But I’m right here with You”

“Your spirit is with me but all you are and ever will be is right down there within him. His name is Adam by the way. Come now. Let’s go to the formation room.”

“The formation room?” you inquired as God took you by your tiny hands and lead you down the clear gold path.

“Yes, son.”

“Son. You’ve never called me that before. Only Jesus has a right to be called Your son.”

“Not any longer. Take another look down to earth.”

You smiled a grand smile and took a glance and stopped dead in your tracks. “ The veil is torn, Father.” You paused. You had never uttered those words to the King of Kings. “Father….You’re my Father.”

“Yes, My reward, My gift,….Matthew. You are now my son”

I’m back, Dad! Well, hello, Matthew! How’s it going.

“Great, Jesus.” By this time you were beginning to get nervous. You knew Jesus never left Heaven and the thought of seeing the veil rent bothered you.

You’ve got something on your mind Matthew?

“Well,” You looked up to both of Them, “The earth is green and looks like it has people it that look like us. Jesus, You left Your throne and now the veil that separated us from earth is cut right in two. And the strangest thing is I’m going to the formation room. I thought that place was for souls or something. And, hey, did Ya’ll know the Holy Spirit is missing? If you don’t mind me asking, what’s going on?”

The Father and Son looked down on you and smiled. By this time you Guys were already in the Formation room. I’ll take it from here Dad. See you back in the Throne room.

God graciously step out of the room and it was just you and the Messiah. Oh, what a sight that was. The Branch pulled up a seat and picked you and placed you on His right knee. You began to feel somewhat weak. You knew what was about to happen but it sadden you to think about it. Your eyes welled up with tears.

Matthew, you are right there has been a lot going on. And this is the room where souls are kept. But every once and a while the Father, Myself and the Holy Spirit, which is on earth now, come in agreement to choose one of our most specially gifted spirits to go to the earth and take care of a few things…..Now don’t you worry little one, I’ve been to Hell and back for you. You will be just fine down there. You will not recognize me at first but sooner than later you will see a resemblance of Heaven in the face of a man child I’ll be sending after you.

“After me! Why can’t he go first?”

Now, now, Matthew. There is no need for that. I’ve already gone before you. Every crooked place there was is now made straight. So now take my hand and I’ll walk you in to time. Always remember, I love you.

“I love you, too, Lord.”

Jesus placed you on the conveyor belt while you grasped His hand tightly.

Don’t worry Matthew. You were not afraid to seek Me here. Don’t be afraid to seek Me there. For I have chosen you for such a time as this. For now will I be found and you will have access to My Throne room as always. Just don’t forget to seek Me.
