I was in a garden with walls and high gates. I was happy there, for I knew nothing more. But the Lord came and dismantled the gates and tore down the walls. He said to me, “Roam where you want. Do whatever you please. Anything you want, is yours.”
At first I was overwhelmed. Where do I go? What do I do?
I began to explore and I found great food and joyful parties. I found large kingdoms and all the riches of the world.
I went deeper in and I found miracles, signs, and wonders. I saw worshippers of the Lord and people manifesting all His greatness. And I saw all that I could be, in all God’s glory.
Then I turned around and I saw my God. And all else became like dust and ash to me. It was lifeless and dull, and had a draw no longer. So, I ran to my God, my love, and I stayed with him. I communed with him. I laughed with Him. And I loved him. And He was well pleased, for I had chosen Him, and Him alone, in all my freedom.

Tara, this is beautiful, it reminds me of the path I walked until The Lord found me or I found Him. It brought tears to my eyes, this is beautiful... Thank you for sharing
Tara, so true! In the end will be God. All the other things were only meant to get us there.
Love Dad
