This explorative story come from the middle of my life experience. I write it on a clay tablet, so it may give everlasting life.
Searching for life in anything else but God will be a disappointment. For in God alone there is life and eternal value.
How can I explain this?
“Help me Spirit, so I can make this clear?”
Do not get technical, let your spirit lead you to reach the life-giving truth behind the message.
Once in a far-off country, lived an old farmer, who farmed a great expanse of land. It was so vast that he had to appoint twelve different farm caretakers to manage equal areas of land. They had to ensure that all instructions, given by the old farmer, were implemented. They had the freedom to achieve these instructions how they saw fit, but always to the satisfaction of the old farmer. Twelve farmhouses were placed, equal distance from the old farmers homestead in the centre of the farm. It took the old farmer, or any of the caretakers, a day’s horse trek to connect between any of the farmhouses on the farm. The caretakers would regularly and without seizing visit with the old farmer at the centre of the farm. They will go in with the old farmer and confer together, get instructions, encouragement and Certine. Certine, a special type of organic mineral that is added into all the farm areas’ water-sources. This age-old mystery is the reason for this farming dynasty’s success. It has been carried over from generations as far back as books can ‘remember’.
Victor, the old farmer, has been the owner for more than three generations. Most of the oldest generation talk with reverence about this formidable man, as if he has been on the farm forever. The centre of the farm is where the Certine mineral is ‘mined’. This is the only place where it can be found. Although it is so powerful, it cannot be contained in great quantities and for long periods of time, especially if it is not mixed with water.
The caretakers need to saddle their spirited horses to visit the old farmer as regular as possible. These majestic horses have been running over the land before time made sense. The connection and supply of Certine was crucial for the growth and progression of these twelve areas on the farm. Once anybody has tasted the Certine water, they develop a yearning to gallop with the horses to more places where the Certine mineral has not been used to advance farming endeavours.
The story of Certine, as a lifegiving mineral, has been told to generations of people as far back as the roaming of the horses, but few has grasped the brilliance of what it truly means. Many people continued to drink the brackish water in the earthy water-supply, and it leads to so much heartache. Without the Certine mineral, the water does not generate growth or fruit. Everywhere people are dependent on brackish water and they had to create clever man-made methods to ensure food security, or temporary remedies for the ailments that accompany the lifeless water.
Victor has told the great story to all the farm caretakers before they were appointed to tend and keep the land. He showed them in detail how it worked, using great fables and miraculous demonstrations. Demonstrations that have been unheard of for centuries. Demonstrations that showed them the powerful effect of the mineral.
Unfortunately, some people questioned this liberating method of use and wanted to bottle it for themself. They wanted to put it in capsule form. But the only way that the mineral performs is when one adds it into one’s own water source. Whatever that water-source would be or looks like. When the Certine is added and truly incorporated with one’s own source, it firstly cleanses the brackish water away and as soon as the new water starts pouring out, the most delectable and juicy fruit is produced for all to enjoy.
It is told that when the caretakers would visit the central farmstead, Victor would sit them down beside a fireplace, after feeding them bread and Certine water. He would, and still, tell the story about how he had to dig a deep well. It was the most arduous and painful work, but it was necessary to break through the rock formations that comprised only brackish water. Through the delving and crushing work it got so bad that Victor went into a comma and after a few days, while everybody was mourning, something fantastic happened. An earthshattering explosion was heard and from the well a stream of water spouted high into the air. It was told that the new water broke through the rock-formations that kept the brackish water. At the same time this occurred, Victor rose and started walking about on the farm, giving the residents and workers on the farm of the new water.
Soon thousands became aware of the difference THIS water made. Invigorated by the new water, people become sure about true life; they would catch the free running horses from the fields and ride to distant places, bringing others the mineral. Certine was brought to many people, so they could also incorporate it into their own water-sources. As people started tasting the Certine water, they also journeyed on spirited horses, to Victor’s farmstead, where the only well brings forth Certine water. The Certine mineral is, to this day, distilled out of Victor’s well and freely provided, suitable for transportation and mixture into other water-sources all over the land.
One of the old ladies on Victor’s farm told a story of a previous farm caretaker that neglected to make the journey to Victor, to receive the Certine mineral. Brackish water immediately started leaking back into his water-source. Pain and death followed, crops were lost, and the people became ill. Violence, murder, idolatry, envy, selfish ambitions, jealousness and much more lifeless acts started to spread around the area. Victor sent people to warn the caretaker, but never to force the Certine upon him. Only in the deepest pain, when the caretaker lost so much, did he remember the story Victor told him and he returned in shame. Victor received him with open arms and restored him and his area to its fullest glory. Victor arranged for a big celebration and invited all the people on the farm as a sign of revival.
When you taste the water, you will know. The only way is Jesus (John 14:6).
