Title:
God Sense
Story behind the story:
This story was inspired by the book “Heaven is for Real”. I’ve read 90 minutes in Heaven, 23 minutes in Hell and this book. These are my three books to give to non-believers. I struggle with non-believers or those resistant to accepting Jesus as their savior. There were many examples in each of these books that convince me. Between my own experience writing stories, I know God is real. I can’t explain it, but I know. I struggle in the world today with so many distractions, devices from making life simple. The simple things this little boy described only confirm my beliefs. I have three boys and can relate to how little boys describe things so “matter of fact”. I wish my poems were as simple as this book. 
God has confirmed the words in stories like this are “The words he gave me to share with everyone”. I’ll keep sharing lol!
Story:
When you can see, smell, taste, hear or touch something. We know it’s real, we have earthly evidence. God gave us five senses to use. There is a sixth sense not talked about much. It’s Gods sense although we can’t see it like other senses. A majority of people in the world today don’t want to humble themselves to acquire this sixth sense. It takes God talking through little children to show us God’s world is real simple.
We have theologians, professors and smart people alike trying to explain God’s word. If we worked as hard trying to obey His words as we did trying to explain or avoid them. Our world would be a different place, I’m sure of that. The closer I grow to Jesus, the more my heart hurts I can’t physically force or mentally persuade a single individual into accepting Jesus. It’s only a choice a person can make themselves. This has to be between them and God.
A three or four year old can plainly state Jesus loves you without pretense, without judgment, without wanting something in return. This is pure, real love. Only when we plug into the sixth sense do we start to discover what real life is meant to be. Man doesn’t have all the answers. When we try to explain and state we have the answers, pride sets in. Pride is plainly wrong, not something God approves of. Heres the crux, loving Jesus is simple, we make it hard. From mans perspective, we don’t want follow his ways. We are such selfish creatures.
When we are little, we are unselfish, we are real. As people get older, they become less real and jaded by the world. No one is old in heaven, they are young. I’ve not seen this for myself, but a little pure one says so. I have faith, Jesus exists, and God exists. I don’t have all the answers. This will convince some that I’m crazy and believing something that isn’t real. When you plug into the God sense, you see things different, really different. For now, we have a choice to make, chose our own path, or God’s path. From others witness and my own experience I have chosen God’s path. There are many unknowns to come, we do know the final outcome, God wins. This doesn’t stop the enemy from trying to wreak things along the way. Guard your heart, your pure God loving heart; it’s worth it in the end. When things get tough, seek God’s wisdom. HE is listening waiting for his children to plug into the God Sense.
Poem:
When you can see something
When you can touch something
When you can feel, taste or hear something
We know it’s real, we have earthly evidence
God gave us five senses to use
Sight, Smell, Hearing, Taste, touch
There is a sixth sense not talked about much
It’s Gods sense although we can’t see like other senses
A majority of people in the world today
Don’t want to humble themselves to acquire this sixth sense
It takes God talking through little children
To show us God’s world is real simple
We have theologians, professors and smart people alike
Trying to explain God’s word
If we worked as hard trying to obey His words
As we did trying to explain or avoid them
Our world would be a different place, I’m sure of that
The closer I grow to Jesus
The more my heart hurts I can’t physically force
Or mentally persuade a single individual into accepting Jesus
It’s only a choice a person can make themselves
This has to be between them and God
A three or four year old can plainly state Jesus loves you
Without pretense, without judgment, without wanting something return
This is pure, real love, only when we plug into the sixth sense
Do we start to discover what real life is meant to be
Man doesn’t have all the answers
When we try to explain and state we have the answers, pride sets in
Pride is plainly wrong, not something God approves of
Heres the crux, loving Jesus is simple, we make it hard
For man, following his ways is not easy
We are such selfish creatures
When we are little, we are unselfish, we are real
As people get older, we become less real and jaded by the world
No one is old in heaven, they are young
I’ve not seen this for myself, but a little pure one says so
I have faith, Jesus exists, and God exists
I don’t have all the answers
This will convince some that I’m crazy
Believing something that isn’t real
When you plug into the God sense
You see things different, really different
For now, we have a choice to make
Chose our own path, or God’s path
From others witness and my own experience
I have chosen God’s path
There are many unknowns to come
We do know the final outcome
God wins, the enemy doesn’t
This doesn’t stop the enemy from trying to wreak things along the way
Guard your heart, your pure God loving heart
It’s worth it in the end
When things get tough, seek God’s wisdom
HE is listening waiting for his children to plug into the God Sense.
God Bless
