We are collectors with dreams. We dream of finding things of great value at low cost. Our collections end up on display. Whether in a safe, closet, china cupboard, hanging on walls, over a mantle, or in a great gallery, every item in our collection reflects the cry of our soul: “Look at my collection!” Sooner or later: Every collection meets The Appraiser.
We collect facts, as well as things. We put our facts into collections. The great galleries in our minds are collections of facts, conclusions, and actions. Each collector is a collection!
We each spend a great deal of time appraising the collections that are our neighbors.
We are collectors with dreams. In each dream, our soul sends our spirit to make a collection from the countless millions of memories collected among the molecules of our mind. Each dream is a collection. Dreams show us that we can see things that are not without but are made from things that were. Some wonder, “Am I, are all of us, simply collections dreamed up by God?”
Our collection of thoughts turn into our gallery of beliefs. Our beliefs become actions. We are The Collection That Is Us. Our Collection is appraised by those around us.
A light comes on! We realize that our soul will leave our collections of things, facts, beliefs, and actions. “My soul will meet The Appraiser!”
We strive to get our collection in order. We get rid of the whatever is wrong with it. How do we do that?
Many are driven by simple math. “The odds are trillions to one that The Prophesied Messiah fulfilled the predictions about Him. I will play the odds and try to get a good appraisal from Him.”
What did He tell us? “You are My friends if you obey My commands.”
Only a fool would not want a friendly appraisal. So, the smart money looks to make the smart bet. We begin with what The Appraiser told us so clearly:
“Verily, verily I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
Every collection meets The Appraiser.
