St Denis
Just like dogs and cats have breeds, so goes us humans. There are introverts and extroverts, there are party people and there are those who love solitude. They are the givers and there are the takers. So many breeds, more than you can imagine. Ah! Human nature! What a puzzling, amazing cultivation of possibilities and actualities. I say possibilities because we choose what breed we actually become. Our intellect and freedom of will helps decide who we really want to be. Situations and events that are pivotal to our sensors show up different ways of how to handle things. We can either shut down or move on. Relate or be stunted. Open up to the truth or hide it away so deep only God could find it. Either way, our choice of what kind of breed we come to be must come at some point. Some point where God can find us and we can find ourselves. Whether any human being wants to admit it or not, we are all quite needy. No one has it all together always. Life is a learning process with the world as our classroom. Our graduation depends on how much we listen to the great teacher, our God. Then the breed of our livelihood can appear.
Our goal is to be kind and understanding, empathetic and sympathetic. Loving Him, teaching and learning to the very end. There is but only one breed in God's eyes. His breed. The ones He created from the very beginning. All in His image. I pray my breed will not become tainted by a world who can be very misleading and luring and misguiding. But the breed of Jesus Christ may always burst forth into all humans very being and that our legacy of Love may never ever diminish.
Choose your breed in resignation to what is good and all truthful and all learning. The traits of Faith, Hope and Love will come alive in strength with sweet surrender.
Break through that strong hold of a stony heart and unforgiving ways and let the Holy Spirit enter in. The breed of Heaven's elect will shine forth into the glorious image of God. The breed we were created to be.
