Seeing What Others Cannot See
by Os Hillman, October 28, 2006
And Elisha prayed, "O Lord, open his eyes so he may see." Then the Lord opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. - 2 Kings 6:17
Several years ago, a movie was made called Field of Dreams. The story is about a man who had a vision to build a baseball field in the middle of a cornfield on his rural farm. He did not know why; he just knew he was to do it. To the chagrin of his neighbors, he built the baseball diamond in the farm community. One night some players showed up. The man realized these were no ordinary players, but were actually the great players from the past. When the skeptical neighbors came to view this phenomenon, they were unable to see what the farm owner could see. This made it even worse for him. Now he was really a lunatic in their eyes.
This fictitious story has a spiritual application for us.
First, if God tells us to "build a ball field," [EdenDust], we should do it.
It is not for us to determine the reason we are instructed to do it. Once we are obedient, God will allow us to see what others cannot see. It is the rite of passage for those who are willing to risk all for God's purposes. God increases the spiritual senses to levels we never knew before. Those around us will observe this.
Do you want to see what others cannot see? If so, it will require a level of obedience that will go beyond human reason.
It may require risk and ridicule from others.
But you will see what others cannot see.

Thank you, Bro. Hillman. THANK YOU.
My journey continues in Taos, New Mexico. The weather has been incredible.., sunny and cool.., even snowy for one day!!
But always, scenic.
The people of the GREATER WORLD COMMUNITY have been extremely helpful with their personal stories of how they all came to be here...
So the journey continues to see if I can 'build "EdenDust in the Desert", and they will come' !!
Stay tuned....
