The Rising Of The True Sages
- Written by Mark J. Chironna, PhD.
There has never been a greater need for deep healing and deep hope in the hearts of the masses. A deep, underlying fear of the future has taken root, fed by false narratives spun by fear-mongers, grifters, and charlatans. In a climate saturated with uncertainty, where anxiety runs high and true assurance seems absent, many are vulnerable to the loudest, most manipulative voices. Yet what the times cry out for is not more noise, but the voices of the true sages: the elders who have been seasoned by the wars of life, the scars of love, and the long apprenticeship to the realities of the human condition.
We need the sages to rise, those who can dream dreams born not of denial, but of hope stronger than despair, so that the emerging generations might be given permission to give voice to the visions they are seeing. We need sons and daughters who can prophesy not from the script of false predictions, but from the holy promise of futures still pregnant with God’s possibilities. Where are the sages? Where are the healers? Where are the warriors of hope?
The world staggers under the weight of counterfeit certainties and hollow hopes, and the soul of a generation teeters on the edge of despair. But even now, in hidden places, the true sages are stirring, those whose wisdom has been tempered by sorrow and refined by grace. The healers are gathering, though their hands are scarred, and their hearts have bled unseen. The warriors of hope are sharpening invisible swords forged not from anger, but from mercy, truth, and endurance.
They are not the loudest voices, nor the ones crowned by spectacle or platform. They are the quiet ones, the steady ones, those who have learned that real authority is born not from conquest, but from compassion. They are dreaming dreams, even in the night of the world, and daring still to speak of mornings not yet seen. And if we listen, truly listen, we will hear them calling us back to ourselves, back to our holy humanity, back to a future not dictated by fear but imagined through faith.
“Hope is not born from prediction, but from the dreams of the healed.”
