In my last entry, it became apparent that there is great potential for much
misunderstanding when it comes to faith, hope, and desire. Let's begin then to
untangle things so we can get to the Truth as I understand it at this time,
based on what Father has taught and shown Linda and I.
Let's address the word desire first. As said many times and in many ways
through this and Linda's blog, Father has explained that we have been given a
false desire and that this little "d" desire is different from our True,
capital "D" Desire. When we go about seeking fulfillment of this false little
"d" desire, rather than our True, capital "D" Desire, we end up of a necessity
unfulfilled. Why? Because we are giving substance to something that is unreal
and is designed to lead us astray. It is the chasing of virtual carrots... no
matter how many one may get, they can never satiate one's hunger.
The definition of the word "desire" as a sexual appetite, longing for
companionship and sexual fulfillment, lust, coveting, or craving is simply the
definition of this false little "d" desire the unrighteous / unholy have
introduced in us. This is why pursuing these activities leave us unfulfilled or
empty handed.
To begin to grasp the meaning of capital "D" Desire, we could look at the word
"wish", since this word is specifically used when one wishes to remove any
connotation of sexuality from the word desire. The problem with using this
word, is that "wish" also carries the connotation of something that is remote
or unattainable. Thus giving the inference or illusion that our True capital
"D" Desire is nothing more than wishful thinking.
So where do we turn? To the root of the word. Desire has its roots in the words
"from + star". The star of our solar system is the Sun, and as Father has
explained to us, the Sun is a manifestation of His Desire to support our
Journey upon the Earth. Thus, our capital "D" Desire carries the
characteristics of the Father Which Is in Heaven and is a direct expression of
what we came here to do / accomplish with, for, and / or in the auspices of the
Father. Thus, capital "D" Desire is something that brings Joy and Peace,
uplifts our Heart and nourishes our Soul, and brings freedom of movement to go
and do as needed to receive the Blessings Father would bestow upon us.
