We know something’s we wish were
not happening will still carry over and something’s we really want or think we
need to happen may not if happen when we want them if ever. But what would the world be like if we got
everything we wanted when we thought we should have it. I am not trying to minimize anything anyone
is going through or just coming out of.
Far from it; the pains and sufferings the joy and happiness it is all
real for every single one of us.
My heartfelt prayers are for each and every soul that is reading
this. Healing and comfort for all who
suffered loss of family and friends.
Those trying to get through another year as they lost someone close to
them. Those ill or recently diagnosed
with terminal news. Those feeling lonely, you are never alone. Those wanting love and romance, start loving
you and really learning to care for yourself mind, body and spirit. Pray harder for the Lord above to connect you
to the special perfect someone.
Just remember; NO ONE on this earth is perfect. So if you open yourself up for relationship; make
it right, morally and for eternity. Not
just until they stop looking good or something goes wrong. Make sure you are evenly yoked. Not just like a few of the same things and
songs.
Those that are suffering anxiety
and depression. Those suicidal; YOU MATTER!
Please seek professional help and
surround yourself with positive influence.
Those trying to fix the broken we are called
enablers’ STOPIT! We cannot fix anyone
that does not want to fix themselves.
They have to want it for themselves and step out and get the
professional help they need. We can
pray, and help guide; we cannot fix anything.
Those struggling with addictions;
you are the only one that can seek the lasting professional help to get you through
to the other side. No one can do it for
you; geographic relocating will not fix the problems, Stop filling yourself up with all that is
killing you and everyone who really cares for you. If you really want change, you have the will
and choice that every single soul is blessed with. You can do all things in Christ if you
believe. If you are in an abusive situation; reach
out to a center that can help set professionally that will set you free. .
All
of these things in life no matter what year are real and hard. We have to dig in and build positive morally
sound relationships and tap in to what the good book says and learn about God
and his son Jesus Christ.
My Look back and Perspective of 2019 as 2018
comes to an end; I think back of all the things that have occurred in my life
as well as all those around me and to or in my family, my friend’s lives.
There have been some really scary
moments, some really heart breaking and painful moments. But also so many fun, happy and joy filled
moments filled with love and laughter.
Reality is: Nowhere was it ever
written unless done by humanity; anything in this life will be fair or
easy. Would it be nice; Oh yeah! I will be the first to say that. But if I could hit the easy button and make
things fair; I doubt I would be the person I am today.
If I did not go through and I
will keep it simple but it was not; if I did not go through every single
growing pain in my life; and if the Good Lord did not have His hand upon
me. I one would have never survived
early on. But I would not be the person
I am today.
Yes I work way too hard and
sometimes not nearly smarter. But it is
what it is and I am who I am. Do I wish
and that even half of young adults today had the motivation, drive, loyalty and
respect that my generation has?
Absolutely! Do I wish that there
were no broken families or homes and today’s grandparents were not the primary
support of their grandchildren when the parents are still alive and well in the
world? Yes, of course I do.
But what if we lived in the
perfect world? Imagine every street you
drive down looking like something from a Steppford wives series. At which point I doubt very much we would
turn and depend on God.
I myself am nothing without
living daily for more of Him. Trying to
live respectfully, doing what is right; yes that means to me obedience and care
for everything around me as well as myself.
Sure it was fun back in the day
doing stupid crazy stuff as a kid; and those unexpected situations I never
thought I could survive. I am only here all these years later by the
grace of God.
But none of this is really about
me. It is about 2019 coming in with abundant opportunities of new beginnings in
all things.
Yes we may be broke; yes we may
be laid up ill or broken physically or emotionally. Yes we may have a great ending to 18 and
looking awesome for 19.
Or we may think we are forever
stuck in what looks to be a pit we can see no way out of; because of someone’s judgment
and constant control.
What I can say is never give up,
never give in. When things are hard pray harder.
Despite all that anyone does to
you; I won’t say stand there and take it; but get out of the way, turn your
entire body and go where you are not in that situation.
If you do not have a relationship
with God, find a good bible based church and start there. Make and keep your God loving God fearing no
agenda friends.
Life is hard; it bites really
hard sometimes. There is not a soul in
this world that does not have something they are painfully trying to handle. Geographically just leaving and moving
does not solve the issues you may have.
You have to step, step out and deal with life head on. No one can do it for you.
If you are dealing with or in
drugs; STOP! Just stop, reach out and
get professional help but stop the madness.
Stop destroying yourself and those around you that care for you. If you cannot or don’t want to. That is your choice, but stop whining and
crying when things get really bad and you are all alone.
No parent who is truly a loving
kind parent not under the influence themselves, ever wants to see their child
hurting, on drugs or in the grave. EVER And as parents we cannot make our adult
children do anything. We can enable
them, we can cut them off but they are the ones who have to decide if their
life is worth living and motivate themselves for themselves and the children
they have. We can only pray and help
with stability along the way for the babies who never asked to be in this
world.
Life really is what you make it
and you cannot make it on your own.
Truly if you want peace in your life build a relationship with God; get
into a good bible based church make a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Being blessed does not mean you
go to church every week or on holidays.
It is a daily 24/7 relationship with the maker and the son he sacrificed
so humanity would have a chance. If you
want peace; try it for a year. Fill
your life with positive respectful morally sound no agenda friends. Fill yourself with those who have been
blessed and trained up to help you understand all that is in the bible or that
they teach.
Stop thinking about all that is
wrong in your own life and start reaching out to help others. A kind word, a gesture,
a meal or even just a kind look instead of looking through someone because they
don’t look like or act like you think they should.
We are all the same on the
inside. We all may look different;
hopefully act different but we are all God’s creation.
Don’t judge; it is not our
place! Help where you can, stay out of
what you should not be into. There is
one judge and we all will kneel before them the day we are called out of this
world. Don’t turn your heads;
absolutely not; it is our place to be
keepers of this earth, guide our young and care for the blessings we are
given. Be the voice or positive change. Step out and be heard. Pray daily, 24/7 never stop. But do it in relationship with Jesus and
make sure you understand. Just because
you pray does not mean anything will transpire in your time to see; or
everything will change. Be careful
what you pray for.
So everything I think is not the
answer to half of the worlds needs. But
to me; one seed planted of positivity, love and grace; will spawn the wild field
of hope that this world needs so desperately.
Never give up; never give
in! Love yourself and where you are. Don’t change to be something or someone that
others want you to be. Eventually that
change will not be enough and you will find yourself in the cycle losing who
you really are meant to be. None of us
are a piece of meat on display for others enjoyment to be discarded when they
are tired. So take courage and care for
you and stop worrying what others think you should be. But on the same token respect your parents
and obey the directions they give you.
So as you can see my thoughts of
all I have seen in this life not just 2018; and my perspectives on 2019 are
much.
But to the point; build positive
Godly relationships; if things are hard Pray Harder! Don’t give up. And hold on to hope with all you have. You are blessed right where you are. There is something you are called to do.
If Jesus says so; Do it, and know
your blessings even if its little; write it down and remember you are a child
of the most High King of this universe.
Happy blessed new year and many more.
