Chosen For What?

When I think about the prophecies in the bible concerning the few who are chosen to ascend as rulers with Christ I can't help but think about the years I have spent as a father teaching and raising children and what a colossal amount of cleaning up after them has to take place before their trained to effectively take on the world themselves.
In some cases this training and raising continues long years after what an average parent would hope to have accomplished and done. Even more so when the kids are really adult in years but were never actually raised. It is exhausting to consider and even more so when you're living in it.
Still there is no reason not to make the best of it and for my part I continue camping and spending a huge amount of time and effort cleaning up after other campers who really are not past the level of messy babies. Really big, really messy, babies. The thing that I am battling the most in this experience is that no matter what corrective work I seem to be doing in regards to my world, I still get treated like an unwanted presence.
This is where I stand in the gap to witness firsthand Jehovah's justice. If in fact I am an unwanted presence, while I am cleaning up after Gods wayward children as if they were my own, and you are treating me as though I am one of them, prosecuting me for trespassing, destroying my tents, throwing my gear in the creek, what you have done is display your hatred for our God, and your impotence in ruling. Your reign is over.
The bottom line is, those who are chosen to rule, are chosen because they understand the true servant nature of our God. We will be cleaning up after, teaching, training, essentially raising the children of the heavens for all eternity. So be aware, and be careful where you step. Your King may very well be the person you are mistreating. And if you see me camping here in town, keep your mouth shut and lend a hand. What I am doing is good for everyone.
