You may think that this is a place where you can buy and sell real estate, but this particular office has an "I " added to it and it is an office where we all seem to get stuck in. The "I" is you and the "REALITY OFFICE " is where you reside. Every day seems like just another day at the office. The office is broken down into three rooms. There is the objective reality room which is the gold standard or scientific standard for what is real. It describes anything that is measurable, observable and would exist even if humans didn't. Physical laws and physical stuff are examples. The room adjacent is called the subjective reality room and it is basically anything that you would believe. Examples are political views, glass half empty, half full theory. Across the hall is the intersubjective room and in it is things that exist because we collectively believe they exist. Examples are money, religion, fame, and laws. It always seems to be a very busy day at the "REALITY OFFICE ".
The most common practice at the office is a reality check. Sometimes we get detached from reality and the office seems to be closed. Other times we forget how to get to the office, and we lose touch with reality. When we finally find our way back, then a feeling of being back to reality overcomes our every thought. The latest generation in our society has adopted a new reality called virtual reality. It all seems so real for them that for many it becomes their only reality. Unfortunately for them, nothing could be further from reality.
In reality, we never can escape the "REALITY OFFICE", but that's okay and it rides on what you choose your reality to be. There comes a time when you need to keep it real. It doesn't matter what room you are in if Jesus is in the office. They say He's a real piece of work at the office, while others consider him a real doozy. The objective reality is that there was a Bible written. The subjective and intersubjective reality is what you would call your faith. In real time you can have the real deal with the real McCoy when you let Jesus run the office. You can remove the "I" and it changes to a realty office, and you can obtain real estate there as Jesus promised that at his Father's house there are many dwelling places. So maybe in real time, it's time for the real deal for you down at the "REALITY OFFICE ", because when Jesus becomes your reality, the "REALITY OFFICE " becomes a much better place to be in.
1CORINTHIANS 2:14 ESV
The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folley to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
HEBREWS 11:1 ESV
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
HEBREWS 6:18 ESV
so that two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.
JOHN 14: 2-3 AMP
2. In my Father's house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you, because I am going to prepare a place for you. 3. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and I will take you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also.
