A thought for today

I know that I lack straightforwardness, and often think myself clever or witty, but I speak (write) in vagueness not to hide the details of my life, but so that the ideas that inhabit me may be shared in their most basic forms. It is how I connect. It is how I wish to be connected. It is how I wish to affect change, by allowing others to think out from the basic idea into their own life and circumstances.
It is a motto of mine, "Cause and Affect" exhibiting my desire to cause and affect change in the world, not by my own will, and not by forcing change upon others, but to show them that there is more, perhaps more than they have dreamed, or possibilities that were otherwise hidden from their view, and that the more is readily available to catch their every step.

A verse I frequently become enamoured and frustrated with is, "a man cannot serve two masters." I have found that the next paragraph is enlightening in that it begins, "therefore," or better to say, "because I have asked this of you" do not worry. because if you seek His Kingdom and His Righteousness first, all the things you need would be given to you.

I have spoken plainly only to a few about the possible implications of this passage. I refuse to believe that I am of greater faith than others. In fact, I believe it to be quite the contrary. But still, as I voiced what I believed to be true and right, as supported by the above passage and still others, my belief was dismissed, each time, with no delay. It would seem to me that basic constructs of this world are well intact and above questioning, perhaps it is for the best. I suppose that nothing questioned can ever be thought wrong.... and if you don't know its wrong, the blows will be few, but those who know the master's will and do not do it will be beaten with many blows.
