The Midnight Ocean
  
Reflections, Poetry, and Prose from the depths of the Midnight Ocean.
Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD;
O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy. Psalm 130
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant. After those days, saith the LORD,
I will put my law in their inwards parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God,
and they shall be my people. Jeremiah 31:31-33
Wherefore the law is holy, and the Commandment Holy, and just, and good. Rom7:12
Sifatai tiftach- u'fi yagid- tehilatecha!
- If I open my lips- let my mouth- declare Your praise!

This blog is dedicated to a fellow blogger...sorry it got waaay outta hand in length! Hope it's meaningful in some way...GB!

One of the most difficult things for a brilliant mind these days- I can only imagine- must be the thousands of years of influence they are laden with. Ages and ages of darkness- producing volumes upon volumes- of the vexing words of men. Obscuring and confounding dynamic potentials for G-d. Books if stacked- one upon the other- forming its own tower of Babel.

James 3:15-16 "This Wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work."

Where have we to look then?
In the elusive world of wise and ingenious- creative thought, even the most brilliant minds no doubt will grow weary- as one who is, sifting, toiling and panning- through hunger, fatigue, and demoralizing darkness... in search of a few precious masses of gold- amidst coldness and heavy silt. And then- once having struck pay dirt- most newfound brilliance- never makes it to the scales- as it is vindictively stolen, or lost, and even discarded by others (or even the finder) as 'fools'-gold. Soon, both rock and its finder, are both erroneously dubbed fools- and sent again packing back to the murky depths.
Is this not a Midnight Ocean?
So much for the glory of wisdom and creativity I suppose. But listen...ssshhh...do you hear? There' s a beat. There's a peculiar... rhythm. And it always has that same tone... no? You can hear "it" in the Word of Almighty G-d. And unlike ANYTHING ELSE- you do not familiarize yourself with it... IT familiarizes itself with you!
Taking the words of man and translating them into the Word of G-d.
It leaps out from The Book of the Word, and illuminates that which is around us, even today. Like a beam of creative thought and expression that extends down from heaven to us individually- yet at the same time- as a People. The Prophets had it. The great ones of old had it. Nuances in- and of expressions- that grasp elements and somehow make them more real- and even more familiar, to those who'll hear.
Transcendence defined.
As The Creator having once spoken all things into being...He for generation upon generation, has illuminated the rhyme and reason for "being," to us. To all things is given a meaning. Each flower. Each stone. All have a past that traces back to Our Creator. An essence of latent Divinity inhabiting the very rocks at our feet.

John 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made."
John 1:4-5 In Him was life; and the life was the Light of men. And the Light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."
Christ is the Living Word of G-d.

Many wont hear. Hear? Yes, some words even make music without any audible sound at all.
They whisper and lean, into your heart. They sing, sway, and preen- inside your being. One beat, One melody. One music, with one solitary symphony. And if you listen hard enough and search for it tonight - it'dll sing to you again. That song from a heart so pure...you wont ever want to let it go. It too- grasps and clings to what it knows.
Another.
James 3:17-18 " But the Wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

It may take a time or two, but 'she' (Wisdom) always comes again- to choose- those whom love her. Our Lady Wisdom! How she knows- I do not know.
How do I know all this... I do not know.
Continue to combine your love for His Word, and allow Him to utilize your creativity and Wisdom bestowed, to touch and inspire those around you.
We can thank Him, for we are no longer alone. No matter how isolated our state- or desolate our retreat...we are never alone.

Through: panning, toiling and friged water, I know my home. I can hear it. I can even sing it's melody at time's . Home is not on the Midnight Ocean...but above.
Sweetness- our Lady Wisdom, sent by Him to us throughout the ages... hold our hand again tonight- be our Guide, and light back home.
One to another.

Luke 7:35... "Wisdom is justified of all HER children."

When you have struck gold...let men call it what they will. Those with ears will hear.
Even the dawn can break in certain Words! Reflect His Light as if you were bound...
Adonai, sifatai tiftach u'fi yagid tehilatecha!
"Lord open up my lips- and my mouth shall declare your praise."
And may GBY with a SYMPHONY of words,
sabrefire
