Natural vs. Nature

For in its formation is understood that the most natural things of man are overflowing with the joys of Lord. Revealing even unto the simplest of mans thoughts that the greatest wealth, is to be loved unconditionally, even though we spare not the same thoughts for others.

But where as nature is concerned, we shutter in fear of its wrath and hide away from its coming. Would you in your wisdom confront the wild Lion in pursuit of its meal or settle your thoughts to sleep if your child wandered off?

For even in this, is how the beasts of field tremble themselves, as their days wear into nights and its return is known again in the morning. For they are ignorant of God’s mercy, nor do they conceive the reasoning of its find.

For the promise of mercy was made at the day of creation, but was turned sour from the fall of man. This made pleasure, a labor to find and the labor of its pursuit, a pleasure confused.

For the hope of man was not created without a cause, but for the cause of man, was hope created. This gave deliverance a new name and its outreach to spread in all directions able. Not concerning the offspring of man as though we new our end without the prophets telling.

This assembled our thinking, fetching within, the aspiring our hearts desired and leaving out the dangers it would lead us into, had we not the spirit of wisdom to dived the truth. You see in these two things, holds the past and the future foretold, of what shall be.

For you see in the beginning, God suffered no nature to train itself in our ways, but withstood with His own hand, that which could try our souls. Whereas through mercy he ruled all the earth and all the inhabitance knew only mercy as the way of their own hearts dominion over them, having no thoughts contrary to Gods mercy that breathed through them. Though He was content to be silent in our understanding of this, He knew in our hearts, we would be set upon our own paths and abandoned the trust He had made.

In this we continued for a time, but then nature came and gave to us its subtle voice of freedom. That we should pursue its end and find its ransom, as a quest of our own making. Not one of a plush garden that was safe from the renderings of nature, but that we should choose our own destiny and describe its future as our own creation.

So then in our choosing, God set a new commandment in the curse on all the land, that there should be no mercy within in the walls of nature and that it should be a continuing judgment to train those of future generations. That life without the hand of God, is no mercy at all, but within the things natural, are things created on your behalf.

So whereas He once ruled the earth from the offspring of His mercy, as it was from the beginning of creation. Now, since the curse, He rules by decree, leaving mercy aside for them that bear His name alone. In So doing it became the end of his rule by Mercy and the beginning of His rule by decree.

Now by decree, the famines do not arise out of nothing, yet we determine their end not by natures guidance, but by the natural commandments of God, that all things shall continue until the end is near and this by decree. Then when that time is near, we shall not be able to predict the next day, for the following hath already consumed it.

This is not yet to be upon us, nor is the end yet prescribed, but the continuance is no longer favored in His heart, nor does the freshness of its thought renew His desires of compassion once more. You may embellish what is thought of His knowing to man, but his secret is beyond our daily thoughts.

So in your heart you must learn the aftermath of nature's brutality and understand the refuge of natural things also. For the hurricane punishes the city, not for new sins, but for that which happened first before we knew our sins of torture. Leaving to question within our own ranks the failing of our hand. That we may pursue the aftermath, sentenced to us this day, as though we new not of its arrival, but stood willful in our professions and silent in our cause.

This being an ample warning of its coming, that we should find shelter in our understanding, less we be found in the streets at its arrival. Though this be in itself a troublesome thing to attain, it is not left for us to deliberate alone, rather we are combined in our thoughts to seek the promise renewed to us again. That we are able in natural things, to sustain ourselves till He returns us once again to the unattainable things He hath created from the beginning of time.

So in this trust we are able to discern the momentum of nature and the safety of Gods refuge. Left behind for our continuance and the redemption He seeks for our survival."
