I basically just want to write, make art, express and encourage and bless people in Him the rest of my life. I want to stay in Him through all I do. And make everything flow out of that core relationship in my life. That much hasn’t changed since i met Christ. All my mediums lead to Him. I really like writing words which help others. And I need less world stresses to do so. The pressures and stresses of the world do get to me. I lived in between worlds for as long as i know. I still do. I’m an ironic participant really in every role down here. But I don’t want to be afraid to incarnate either.

When I was little i would draw the man walking the tight rope between heaven and earth. I drew him over and over, adding musical notes as sky. He basically lived in the sky, but was tethered to both earth and heaven through The Son. Literally a son made of all the saints! It’s still my life doddle. His rope was connected to cities and people on earth, and to the saints, or rather through them to Jesus above.

I had many visions of my home above. At times, i feel i know that space much better than the one down here. It’s my actual home. And it’s very near Jesus, but with lots of un-repetitious movement. I get messages and run around telling other creatures things. That’s my joy. The joy of my true name. That’s what I do above and down here. Down here, as I said i like to write, express and encourage people from what I see up there. I love people, but I see us all down here as somewhat in hiding from who we really are. We are much bigger than we imagine. I try to live in that much bigger version of myself. I’m trying to live down here, from who I am up above in Him in both places.

I often take a balloon up to heaven in my visions. We talk, He shows me things, then sends me back down through the atmosphere of song to earth. Sometimes I am happy to be back, other times not. But it’s where He goes as well, and we really are close friends, so I’ve come to love what He loves, and stay close by Him. That’s my story really, or how I live.

Along the way, i typically found others living in the invisible circus, or space between–mostly artists. Some where more centered in Christ than others. Those who were, seemed more able to sustain a lifestyle of in between. Not so much a nomadic lifestyle as a truly spiritual one regardless of outer geographic circumstances. That’s always seemed like spiritual contentment to me–to be in and with Jesus regardless of what is going on outwardly. St Paul was in jail and as content, and with Christ, as when speaking in the courts, or talking to the poets. I’ve tried to live like that also. And to serve others from that space of contentment in Christ.

Since Christ is always serving, we end up serving also. But mainly we are just trying to stay very close intimate friends with Him through every season of life. The rest takes care of itself–our destinies, our path prepared beforehand, our callings, our purpose, all spring from this well of friendship with Christ. Our names are revealed in that space over time. Our identities are hidden in Him, and revealed through our relationship. That’s how the unfolding of identity works out over life. And I suppose continues after this life. The white stone poem never ends. For, we are eternal in Him.

All my expressions flow from that core relationship with Christ. I chose that. Sometimes, He let’s me make art and meet Him there, other times counsel or minister to people, and meet Him through that activity. Each activity is a medium of meeting God. See, in Christ, I’ve had a million dollar view!
