Rapture 40

The bridge of Tomorrow

February 11, 2007

What if we had no name? What if our name was unknown so God wanted us to have a name. And that name was something that men had never thought of. It was Freedom and bridge. And lets say Freedom Bridge, though it may have a place on earth, never had a person who represented it. And so God set me on a course towards that by starting a website called Freedom Bridge. It is just begun as of today. We'll say I paid for it already but it was a gift for services rendered.

Now I have many ways of getting things for free. I have some that are given and some that are earned. This one was earned. In a way that is the purpose of Freedom. We are all gifted with it either as a assurredness of birth or the sanctity of right. And if rights are granted then I am able to write what I wish as long as I do not break the law.

And that is the purpose of Freedom. I wish to write about it but I don't have the knowledge. So God is going to bring me to a place of Freedom. And if Freedom is the bridge or the maker of bridges then I must be willing to follow the plan. And that would be to move to the bridge. Now in the dream I lived on the bridge and there is no place in the world which is closer to that then a place called Lethbridge.

Leth happens to have one interpretation among many which speaks of Freedom. And so Leth Bridge becomes the very fulfillment.

But how can Lethbridge be a fulfillment? The answer is God wants me to trust. He wants me to wait. And He wants me to have. Having means waiting and it won't be easy. Easy is when it just happens. Coming to you means waiting for it to arrive. Running out to meet it isn't always easy when that coming is the return of Christ Jesus. For in the dream I am told to raise an egg and the egg was an eagle. I know the eagle means Freedom and it so happens Lethbridge is the nearest large town to the American border from Canada. And thus Leth Bridge becomes the bridge or gap builder to the US.

Yet is that what the dream means? In a way it is symbolic just as living in Calgary has been symbolic of the grave and of hell. I suffered greatly here.

Yet in Lethbridge there is meant to be freedom and freedom isn't just of Liberty but of trust. For my job is to stay there.

Now staying there means I can travel but I am not to move away because I think I would cry if I were told I could not go anywhere even for a short trip. That would be prison and Freedom is about seeking God. And about trusting. And about knowing our limit. For God doesn't want us to change the world. He wants us to be responsible for one thing. And that is raising up an eagle. And that eagle is going to mean Freedom.

I admit I suffer trepidation. I try not to worry but I suspect this is a big task. And yet I pray and in prayer God knows I care about the eagle enough to care for it by prayer. For Freedom doesn't come because I write or seek for fame or knowledge. But because I seek for ways to express myself to God. And in that is my freedom. And in that is the key to freedom. And in freedom God will set me aright that I would not depart.

And that isn't going to be easy. It will mean saying no so many times that it won't be easy. Simply this that men will seek to bless that one who is blessed by God. And that means they will offer and offer and offer until it seems surely it must be Gods desire. And we have to strive to tell men not to push. For if they push I will pray and they will be carried off to oblivion because they refused to submit.

So in this I know one thing. I have to trust God for understanding. I have to take what God gives and sometimes it will be by men. And I have to learn to discern what is and isn't of God. And that again isn't easy. So in all of this I have to pray and seek God because I've failed to heed more then once. In MLM I failed more then 100 times yet each failure taught me never to do it again. Until the next sales pitch. And then I fell for it right and left and center. And so I have to avoid the pitch by ignoring the empire of men. And therein requires training. For I am only partly trained by God. And in a way that is the purpose of Freedom and the Bridge. For if I write it and they come they will see my stance and will run to God and not me.

For therein is the key to success. I strive with prayer and not with men. I don't wish to repeat the striving with men. It broke me and I was hurt and that is more then enough for one life.

And so God will set me into a story of life. And that is to give Him the Freedom to make this story a fun one. And that is the key to the future. For He wants to make Freedom, the eagle, a fun eagle and one that will bring joy and laughter to the entire world. And that is the one thing the media needs. Joy and laughter. For God will set all things right in His time. And He will make all things clear. For men cannot rise to men without God. And that means they can never be anything to others unless God raises them up.

We know this is the bridge of tomorrow. The bridge which is meant to be the road to a freedom of life. A bridge which will be a mystery and a joy. And a bridge which will give us a new place to begin with. Not to cast off old but to begin anew.
