Author C. Orville McLeish hails from humble beginnings, yet his family's spirit was unbroken. Despite financial constraints that limited educational pursuits and the acquisition of certain earthly possessions and comfort, he discovered a "faith" that inevitably guided him through many life challenges and transformed him into a voice echoing God's ability to elevate a soul from obscurity to prominence. His was a journey of faith, overcoming hurdles, and challenging conventional perspectives. His transparency reveals personal battles with fear and anxiety before embracing an identity rooted in the understanding that we are reflections of God's image and true heirs of the Most High.
Just as ordinary individuals in biblical times triumphed, so can a son of this generation. This theological memoir is a compelling reminder that you, too, can break free from the shadows of obscurity and despair. By discovering your identity in Christ, irrespective of your family background, race or social status, you possess the ability to believe, achieve, and transcend any limitations. You need not be confined to a life of obscurity and anguish. With a foundational understanding of your identity in Christ, coupled with trust and faith, you have the power to overcome obstacles and become who God created you to be.
Adam and Eve were created perfect in a perfect world. They were as God-conscious as a human being can get. Yet, they made a bad choice. Despite their fall, the clarity with which Adam and Eve, and Cain, who became a murderous vagabond, was able to speak with God is fascinating. That clarity seems to be missing today, even with those who claim to be "prophetic." Comparing then and now can prove rather burdensome when the answers are not readily available. We have embraced a culture of self-sufficiency that lacks faith to the point where we do not consult God before making decisions. This is a very sad reality because we have learned to do life, and even church, without God, while simultaneously attaching His name to what we do in a way to create some measure of validity.
If this world is going to change, there must be a restoration of our capacity to walk in God and with God by faith. We must relearn our total dependency on Him to the point where we do nothing without first consulting Him. This is a lost culture in our day, but I believe a generation will arise as it was in the days of Seth when men begin to call on the name of the Lord again. Despite our modernization and self-aggrandizing culture, we can usher in an age where men once again put all their hope, trust and faith in God, our Creator and Abba. This is the clarion call on this generation and generations to come. Will you answer that call?
May we, the ecclesia, rise in faith, trusting God with the same fervor and conviction as the saints of old, and may our lives be a living testament to His enduring faithfulness and grace.
