The One Who Is says:

I will return you to your place, and cause you to dwell securely.
You shall be Mine and I will be yours.

I will give you a single heart and a single path: awe of Me; and in this way will things be well with you and your children.

——- Jeremiah 32:37-39

This is your place, this place you happen to be at just this moment. When God returns you to your place, you are not moved from one spot to another, but are suddenly aware that this spot was the very spot for which you have been searching all your life.

The security of the awakened heart is the surety that all things change, and that there is nothing that need be done about it.

Until this awakening occurs, you are not yet part of God’s people, nor is God truly your God. Until this awakening, you continue to worship the idol of self, the gods of power, control, and permanence. It is only when your gods fail you, only when you are crushed beneath the weight of your own ignorance, injustice, and cruelty, that you can see the invalid nature of your idols and turn to God, the One Who Is the turning itself.
