Can a fish in a pond understand the world outside the water around it, a world that it is not equipped to experience, an environment that it could not survive? Can a hamster in a box succeed in comprehending the principles of economics and processes of manufacturing that work together to bring the food and water to it daily? Nor can you, My loved one, succeed in putting Me into the box in which you live.
Do not waste your time and effort attempting to define Me by the four walls of your existence - depth, width, height, and time; rather, allow Me to grow and mature you, to cause a metamorphosis within you, to equip you to live for now in both time and eternity, until you have learned and practiced how to walk in My Spirit in the heavenlies. Truly what I have created you for, though you are in the world, is not of this world.
Wear this world loosely; do not grasp the things around you tightly. It shall all pass away, and you shall emerge into eternity with those you love, where you will be forever. Learn of me now through the truth of the Word and the experience of prayer as your obedience to the prompting of My Spirit brings life to the dead letter, refreshing to the dull repetition, and joy to the dreary exercises as you pass from death into life everlasting and full of fellowship in My Father's house.

May you keep the Lord's command to endure patiently so that He may keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth. What He Who is holy and true and holds the key of David will open for you, no one can shut, and what He will shut for you, no one can open. He knows that you have kept His word and not denied His name, though you have little strength, therefore, if you hold to what you have, overcoming the one who would take your crown, God will make you a pillar in the temple. You will bear the name of God and of His city, coming out from heaven, and carry the new name of the Lord Jesus Christ; all will acknowledge that He loves you. Revelation 3

May you embrace the love of God, accepting His discipline and receiving His rebuke, in earnest repentance, for the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Ruler of God's creation, is standing, knocking, at your door. He knows from your deeds that you are lukewarm, that you are content with what you have, but ignorant of what you need, yet He is willing to come in and eat with you, if you will open the door. He will counsel you on how to gain His true riches, how to dress for His courts, and how to live in His health, lacking nothing, but walking in His victory as an overcomer. He invites you to share His authority, given Him by the Father God. Revelation 3

May your eyes not be haughty nor your heart proud before the Lord, concerning yourself with matters too great or things too wonderful for you, but putting your hope in the Lord both now and forever more, in the quietness and stillness of your soul, trust and accept His loving care for you as you grow and mature in His Spirit. Psalm 131

May you desire and seek the same lowly spirit that Jesus taught by example, willing to strive and struggle to discard and turn away from the pride that will bring you low, so that in the controlled strength of meekness you may gain honor, not by seeking it but by your actions attain it, and approval in God's sight. Proverbs 29:23
