Thank you,
Jesus, for allowing me this new day of opportunities. Thank you for putting such serious things on
this heart upon awakening this day and finally crawling out from under the
covers.
For all that is put in front of
me to share such as this reminder for all those parents who do care
about the future generations, their children and/or grandchildren. https://youtu.be/dbg4hNHsc_8
“Social
Media Dangers Exposed by mom posing as 11-year-old”
Social media groomers, impersonators,
fraudsters, Cat Fishers if that is a term and/or just any of those out there
using the internet as predators for harm of innocence or personal gains that harm
others in the end.
Bullies,
dirty corrupt minds where adults are stalking, training up and taking advantage
of children, babies, elderly and just kindhearted giving souls in this
world. It is not something new; just more open and vial in the twentieth century.
Some people look past such things, some
people contribute, and some people are even a big part of how those who think
the behavior in the social media dangers video is okay.
I can assure there is not and never has
been any excuse for any adult misguiding, harming and taking away any child’s
innocence.
What seems like no big deal to some is devastating to the future of any child impacted.
Parents and guardians will never be there 24/7 nor will children ever fully
listen to others when they have something in their head and heart, they think
they can handle.
As adults it is our job to guide, protect and speak the truth of how to use
that moral compass as well as the dangers of those out there ready to take and
use up humanity for their own perverse pleasures.
It is true once a certain age our children will have a mind of their own to
get out and do whatever they think they want; or can handle. Walking into things that get out of control
and consume them. No, we cannot put
our children in a bubble or protect them from everything. But we must always be ready to do so and
always be present in all our children are doing, saying and being part of.
Yes, most parents want what is best for their children and sometimes they do
crazy things trying to save them. Where
in the end God saves them from themselves and ultimate darkness leaving us
broken and full of missing pieces.
Yes this mind is all over this morning on this topic, on dreams that came to
be sometime during the sleep zone and just day to day of what I read and see in
this world.
The link about what social media is really like in many places and no it
does not have to stop at stalking or pedophiles. What was at one point created and intended for
growth and good; has many dark places that does not stop at our young adults,
teenagers and yes even 10-year-old kids to be exposed to creeps, bullies,
perverse behaviors and even that of fraud and people making a living off those
who have good hearts and care about humanity.
There are so many good and bad situations that can come from social media
and the internet and even that which should never have happened or misfortune
there are great lessons we should lead through life with.
I am far from perfect and must ask Father God to forgive me daily. Even though I have prayed forgiveness over any
who have done misdeeds to me as a child and even as a caring adult. When it comes to people talking advantage
and harming the innocence of a child and/or elderly soul or disabled soul; I truly am still the one that says let me line
them up for justice. That or if I don’t
think enough justice is being served in this world we live; I do put my own
thoughts into it.
As there is and never will be any excuse for any adult to harm and use children
or any persons for their own personal perverse gains.
.
Father forgive me for my judgement to what should be done to those who harm,
expose and take part in robbing innocence from your children and needy. My thoughts are not up for debate or why
people do what they do. However, I pray greatly
that you come to heal this world no matter what it takes.
We all have the opportunity no matter what good, bad or indifferent has come
to be to be clothed in the garments of salvation. No matter what doubts or lies spin in their
minds. Or even whatever evil they think
they cannot shake off. Lord God show
them how easy it really is to do what is pure, what is clean and what is needed
for this world and the future of it to continue existing.
Protect and guide our children; protect and guide all children to any of the
souls I am connected.
It is you Jesus that sustains us and keeps our hearts and thoughts pure; but
we must work daily to remain in you and allow you to remain deep within us.
There is a fine line as parents to being overprotective and then those we
see daily in the news that are so consumed with the meism’s being caught up in
drugs and misdeeds we care nothing about the blessings we were given to spawn
new life.
There are those that have never healed from their own harm others have done
that take it out on what is meant to give life their own children.
And then those who would do anything to try and fix their prodigal children never
letting the world know they truly need help as a parent to cope with what is
out of their control.
What about those who just engage with the behaviors or raise the children doing
the things that should not be.
Or those who fought their way through making it to adulthood giving their
own blood more than they every had and enabling and teaching them entitlement.
So many directions and paths that can occur Father God; but the truth directed
in spirit and moral compass we should all carry. Is in and with you alone Jesus.
Thank you for allowing whatever this trigger was; I pray for protection and
guidance for all I am connected and all they are connected.
I pray for strength and courage for everyone to step up and step out and
serve and give those with nothing a chance for life; and new bed to sleep on, a
meal to eat, sharing talents and education for growth and never personal agendas. So many simple things we can do to continue
growing forward in Christ while leading by example.
As we are leading regardless if we are trying or not as someone is always
watching and looking up to what we are doing or see being done around us.
Someone unfortunately will always be out there for their own personal gains or perverse misbehavior. Protect the blessings you have been given just to have life in itself is not something we deserve.
Someone unfortunately will always be out there for their own personal gains or perverse misbehavior. Protect the blessings you have been given just to have life in itself is not something we deserve.
Dare to make a difference for those who cannot do so for themselves.
We are all children of God.
Dear Father God I pray for release of judgement while directed in your will
for protection of all that is pure all that is clean and all that leads to
blessings and life as you have meant it to be.
I ask forgiveness for the judgement that
I at times have to withhold my words and actions towards that which is evil. Come Lord sanctify us; sanctify me in all
your ways.
Be with all I am connected, guiding, protecting,
healing and showing them your love and comfort. https://youtu.be/mqbVo0PpdIk “Oceans” “Where Feet May Fail” @ Hillsong United
And there is my true reality of knowing there is
the sweetest soul in this universe out there walking through the valley yet doing
all they can to just keep shining forward for everyone else.
How I wish this world were all made like you;
but if wishes were horses right! Then
we could all ride off into the sunset blessed beyond any deserving.
And all you do we are able to “See the Light” https://youtu.be/h3msQ1xv59kof hope, mercy and grace.

Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings)
Disappointments
and/or tragedies of life can either destroy or give us strength, courage and
opportunity to fight forward.
We each get to
choose!
Yesterday may be gone but God got you up
with purpose today. It’s your choice
for what you do next!
Thank you, Lord, for allowing me another day of opportunity. As I sip on this coffee and ready this mind
for this day; oh, how you know it is sometimes untamable even in my sleep.
Entangled webs of the past twisted in knots for that of a future; all the
while feeling the heaviness of the world around and all that happens within.
Thank you for always reminding me when it is not over yet. Thank you for giving me the need and drive to
care for more.
For that beautiful reminder you are still my God the one who carried me then;
the one who is all I got here and now and the one who will be forever carrying
and sustaining the me you allow me to find.
Each new day you allow me up you remind me my place yet to come into
eternity. Here and now can be filled
with so much on any given second allowed; but what is to come is lasting.
Forgive me in my weakness and the moments I get lost in the hope for that glimpse
of real truth from and with you while I am in this vessel.
Through it all I pray deeply love leads me with your heart, your eyes and your
words. However, I know I fail greatly any
given day. Yet I can praise you for
not allowing my heart to harden through the lifetime of pains and sorrows for
myself and all I have come connected with.
Fill all I am with this blessing to just keep getting back up Jesus! Knowing it is not our own self-righteous behaviors
that allow your direction; but the freedom of will we want all of you within
the depths of any blood flow through the veins and being we are given.
Though I may look in the mirror and hurt or not even recognize who I am to be
or how I made it this far. I can give
thanks for all you are and have allowed me to be blessed in knowing even just a
glimpse of who you really are.
May your will and love Father God through Jesus Christ fill me up and carry
me to your side when you say it is time to leave this planet. Until then may I serve you and the least of
these in this world you allow me to journey.
May I do my best to lead by example for those of my blood and those I do
not. May I do my best always feeling
and sharing the love you give from the inside out. Even on the really bad days you will never stop
fighting for those who believe in you.
As I journey this day Father God; thank you for all I am allowed. Good, bad or indifferent. Lord you know all there is to know of me;
then, now, and always. You know all the
unspoken prayers for every soul on this planet.
I lift it all to you with praise and thanks I for all I am allowed. Thank you for choosing me.
I may never know what tomorrow will be or even if it will. But I come to you to lead me for all the days
I have left.
Thank you for all I am connected; for all that is, was and ever will be.

Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Thank you Jesus for
teaching me first of all, what it means to humble ourselves. Thank you for this new day of opportunity
and for teaching me to be first I must be last and to have life I must be dead
to all the meism’s I can be filled with.
Thoughts all the time some
tapped out, okay many withheld. Thank
you for allowing me to hear, see and feel the goodness of whom you are. I know unless you die to self-daily,
getting up and climbing into the skin of life to start each day. Jesus without you the days are so lonely and
cold; filled with all the hurt that you have already taken away. Without you all the pain and sorrows of lost
dreams, hopes those we love dearly lost, become so overwhelming we cannot
breathe finding myself paralyzed and forget you came to give us life. Never to take it away.
Jehovah-Jireh you father
God the Lord who provides! The Lord who
creates all things, gives and takes away.
Protects and guides all who believe and truly fills us with love and
connection to the meaning of life from the inside out. Even if our misunderstanding human nature craves
worldly blessings, moments, gifts and beings.
Living in this world and up
to the standards, we as human’s state are necessary to have be worth. To be or
mean anything by the worldly standards? It is a part of the existence here and now!
We chase the dreams you
allow us to have and many if not most times forget where the blessings come
from. Allowing ourselves to be puppets
of the world. Unable to serve you as you
call upon us.
How Jesus do we balance
more than what we know as work life balance?
How do we love one another
and live for you while moving forward while not allowing the world to
consume us or allow us to be turned into
what we do and not who you want us to really be?
How do we balance and truly
live in this world Lord without you?
We all must believe in something.
Be it we have much and the best, most name brand everything to have
meaning and life. To always be first or
be at the front of the line? To be
the legend in the field we started out serving you and the world slowly
consumed us.
To know what it feels like
to thirst and never be quenched. To desire
truth, agape love, balance, equality, to serve that one! That one that comes in dreams, that one that
consumes days and nights and days again.
That soulmate that words are not necessary because you know they would
always have your back, as you have theirs.
That one you alone Jesus fill us up with.
Yet here in this world,
full of sadness, lacking gratitude with vultures and thieves at our backs!
Stealing our dreams, our
families, and our lives. How can one
not cling to you Jesus?
Our innocence and what
should be well respected and protected and elders; used and abused for others
own evil plot. Many find themselves,
pumping up with this or that to numb reality and get through what they cannot
handle on their own; yet forget to stay at the foot of the cross until they get
your strength and courage to grow forward.
Jesus please be with your
children! Please somehow someway make
us feel your presence! For the parent
suffering for their children; for the grandparent praying for the bloodline you
blessed! For the loss and pain of what
once started out with you with dreams and visions. That now barely exist.
Lord fill your chosen up with
the new strength, a new day perspective, a new freedom shining brightly for and
with you. May all you Jesus dwell in;
feel the abundant love and grace you give daily!
Lord hear my heart and all
the unspoken prayers; guide, lead and protect all that I am connected; protect
all that I am and you have meant me to be.
May I come up with your
timing to make these words tapped out more meaningful and not just that of my day-to-day,
inner being coming to paper.
Jesus heal and comfort those
who are hurting may they know your true blessing.
Guide all of us that know what it is like to want something so badly you can taste it; but know it will never be something to come to life. Protect us/ Me from this maddening cycle that can be haunting.
Guide all of us that know what it is like to want something so badly you can taste it; but know it will never be something to come to life. Protect us/ Me from this maddening cycle that can be haunting.

any tomorrows you may allow me.

Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Thank
you Father God for not only allowing me up a new day; but also taking this mind
maze back in time. I guess that trigger seeing the “TobyMac Time Machine”
post this morning and seeing DC Talk when they were still kids.
The
big KM aging like fine wine throughout time and space even with all that he has
exposed himself to and lived through. No, it is no big
secret; some just stay deep in your veins and you never really know why.
You just hope and pray that they are really who they say they are.
In
the end does it really matter; on those, that you cannot identify why but just
is and always has been. Leaving me with triggers to say
Lord Tell Me Something Good and of course, a song comes to mind.
However,
it is really is about the love that has been deep in this heart and the fact
that Jesus you want us all to let Love Lead!
I
cannot answer what that even remotely looks like as I flashed back through
tunes and had those same feelings having someone as my Hero or me as
theirs. The Promise; oh that twisted road that got me through
this journey to now.
I
can truly only imagine Jesus what it will be when I see you face to face.
For no matter how I want to feel that Agape love from the outside in; you
had me from the start. Heart and Soul; word-by-word; letter by
letter.
A
romantic dreamer that at least stayed motivated and purposed to give it all I
have in whatever you allow me. Unlike some
of those that talk the talk, take from where ever they walk and sit on the
couch complaining when someone cannot do for them quick enough.
Yes, we all
have our own idiosyncrasies that make and break us; or stay buried in the back
so no one catches on that we are human and not just the facade we put
on. Despite the battles, just to be. The
day-to-day layers of what we are fully in to and with or just give feedback
from the sidelines because we think our world is far more important than those
we so call love and are there for! It is what it is until it
is not; but you Jesus are there from the beginning throughout eternity.
As I glance
away from my work looking through social media, searching for something trying
to release whatever is bundled up causing a bottleneck and pressure.
Finding myself out there too much in some ways and not enough in
others. Amazed how many good intentions souls are vocal over
what they say they know of someone else. We are all human; as I
deal with my own battlefields of the mind; hiding
what hurts from that of what was to be so very real turning out to be just
another game piece knocked out of the board game of life.
Sure
bits and pieces were; but for someone’s persona or personal gains.
Unfortunate how stained the glass gets when looking at souls you still
pray for the best for. However, something has changed and the
reality of what you thought; and what could really be; sadly now tainted and
you hate yourself forever exposing you cared in the first
place...
So
very sad how we let people down and without even realizing it set those
invisible expectations of hope only to let ourselves down believing in what we
should never even consider. After all only God knows
right?
If
I could just truly learn to love everything and everyone from a distance and
never allow myself to feel. Pretty funny to say that.
When you dream and want in hope in faith giving all you are away and the inner
self really wants to run and hide forever because you do not ever want to see
the realness of who people truly are and not just what they pretend to
be.
Kind
of like an inflammation disease. Where your heart is just way too big and
sometimes you cannot move and feel like you’re suffocating and all you want is
for it to matter how you got there in the first place.
Jesus
is this how it feels to walk through life seeing with your eyes.
Hurting when others hurt; wanting so much more and seeing the
letdowns. Just wanting truth and deep agape love in everything and
everyone.
Lead
me to the cross Jesus; may I never harden or become so judgmental I cannot see
the real person within the shell that connects with me. All that I am is
the blessing of life you allow me. For this, I am grateful no matter what
mixed emotions I feel because I exposed my inner sanctity in truth and hope.
Side
by side, across the oceans; may your will alone be the purification and fire
that sparks life through this soul.
Thank
you for this day, for all that has been and all that is yet to come. Let
love lead the way; let all I deeply care for be blessed and feel your presence
in all things. Hold me tight Father never let me go. Hold
them tighter in love, mercy, grace and all that is of you to know.
Thank
you for loving me!
Thank you Lord for this first part of the day; as I sit here taking in some caffeine and ready to go play and learn with the littles thoughts of earlier conversations stick with this mind.
So I have to put it out there Father; you know how I am wired. Here it goes.
It does not matter if they are vanilla, chocolate, caramel or swirl. Ain't nobody gonna convince me what is real through the internet period! We talked about the chess game of life and being played out as pawns months ago. And it seems there really is some that have fun with that concept trying to convince others they are really someone they are not.
Jesus girl all the way making mistakes of my own more than I can count I am sure on any given day.
But
what is for sure! You want my attention; you want me to believe in you;
you want to connect other than hey how are you. You got to be real
that's it; nothing fancy, no big expensive lies or lives to promise on either
side.
You got to be aware; I serve a much higher power and they always come first. But outside of that, get real or get lost.
I love everyone from a distance; but am loyal only to the Fathers Son! Jesus. I would never do anything to bring shame or harm even if your intent was just the opposite. God does remove the rotten fruit. Know what branch you are clinging to and why.
Have a blessed day or evening. I am going to get my spiritual lift on watching littles learn about truth.

Thank you
for this day Father God!
So
I am not sure who or what it was that I was made to wake up for at midnight
last night only to go back to sleep. Nevertheless, thank you Jesus for another
new day of opportunities.
I know my ending will be far greater than my beginning in this life and that is because there was resurrecting power in your name and in your blood that washed me clean.
I have learned the difference and am still learning; and even if I am wrong; the peace and spirit that lives deep within this soul will never be. For I am my better self with you Jesus than I could ever have been on my own in this world. Thank you!

truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If
you really know me, you will know[b] my
Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father
and that will be enough for us.”
9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me,
Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen
me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t
you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I
say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living
in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say
that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the
evidence of the works themselves. 12 Very truly I tell
you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will
do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And
I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in
the Son. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and
I will do it.
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 “If you love me, keep my commands. 16 And
I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be
with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth. The world
cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him,
for he lives with you and will be[c] in you. 18 I
will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19 Before
long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live,
you also will live. 20 On that day you will realize that
I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21 Whoever
has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me
will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
22 Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said,
“But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me
will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and
make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me
will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to
the Father who sent me.
25 “All this I have spoken while still
with you. 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the
Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of
everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with
you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let
your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and
I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to
the Father, for the Father is greater than I. 29 I have
told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe. 30 I
will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has
no hold over me, 31 but he comes so that the world may
learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me.
“Come now; let us leave.
.
== John 16:33== (NIV) 33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have
peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the
world.”

Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Lord thank you for this new day; with air in my lungs and movement in this body I pray you lead me Father through what has meaning and direction this and every day you allow me back up.
I
can have these overwhelming inner battles with what in the world people mean or
say. Why people say when someone does something that should be done
regardless, they will be rewarded. It does not matter if it is that I
step up and out for a stranger or if I show kindness and mercy to my own
family. That by the world’s standards should have it together and be able
to manage their way.
Yes,
I may serve and keep my family close for my own selfish ambitions.
To know what it is like growing up on my own and learning from the world and
school of hard knocks with no one to lean on and be placed in the hands of
darkness repeatedly as a child. I would never do to any child much
less that of my blood.
Charity
and mercy start right at home; for years, I gave much to either those that did
not appreciate any of what it was or those I will never come to
know. Why would I not fight the battle with you Jesus for my own
blood?
So
my messy unorganized jump into the fire at least once a day hurts more often
than it should. You Father God are the way maker.
Submission
to you and your will alone is and forever will be what matters
most. So on those days that I am so human; forgive me please!
On
those days that I spend far too much time trying to get a glimpse or later
giving up on me because the world is just too vast for me to deal with.
For those days that I just get so entangled wanting, wishing and hoping all the
while knowing, you alone sustain all that it is good.
Jesus
so many can put on this great mask and façade of life. Pretending
to be one thing in the public view and something very different as they walk
through that door.
Thank
you for allowing me to be always just me. Directing my steps and
allowing me to see my own weaknesses. Surround me with all you want
me to be Jesus.
Guide
and protect as you have and as I know you will all I am
connected. For the ghost that haunt the demons or us we
battle. We all belong to you Jesus. Break us into who you
alone want us to be. Thank you for this day guide me in all that spins
more than I can handle any given moment.
Purify
and lead all I am connected. Heal and show favor
Jesus. You know all things for all who walk this earth.
For
the child without a parent; may they be blessed with loving, kind mercy
upbringing and protection.
For
those needing healing mind, body and spirit. Heal them Father!
For
those needing shelter; Lord your will be done!
For
those who lost their way may their souls be released to your eternal love and
peace.
Thank
you for this day Jesus. Guard my heart; guide my words and protect
all that I am for you.

Praise for
Spiritual Blessings in Christ
3 Praise be to the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with
every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in
him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In
love 5 he[a] predestined us for
adoption to sonship[b] through Jesus Christ, in
accordance with his pleasure and will— 6 to the praise
of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7 In
him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in
accordance with the riches of God’s grace
Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings)
Hope in you, Father is the only thing that seems real on any given day. As I role over starting the day with devotions to you then finding myself scanning for what seems to never be found.
The connection is there this is true. However, is it nothing more than a dreamer’s heart that somehow was derailed in this worldly collision of life itself?
Thank you for this new day of opportunity and the ability to come to you through leading those who are unsure to just be in you.
Perfection is yours sweet Jesus, in all things. For us the ability to just find that place to breathe you in.
We cannot understand any of what you have already done for us.
Lord I pray I may not fight any of what you ordained Jesus. Guide and lead me in this here and now today and all the days ahead.
For a love so much deeper is far beyond any costs paid in this world. Though I pray for the times we all must suffer in the here and now that you alone fill us up and guide our steps through the fires into something of greater purpose.
Thank you for allowing me this day; and all that comes out of this mind maze. Be with all I am connected walking us through in hope, with love.
I will never get it all right; most days not even a portion. However, do I really need to; for it is the world that puts the labels that make and break us. The world that we allow to mold us and put us up on the pedestals that eventually give way leaving us shattered and alone.
May your will be done calling me out; calling all of us who believe out in unity; in prayer; in faith with you Jesus.
This world is not our homes. We are just passing through. During this time, we get to experience much. Not everyone can know the blessings of what it is like to be born with the silver spoon in his or her hand or food to consume. However, all have opportunity to learn, consume, and share back out the fruits of the spirit.
Putting all our humanly wants or desires aside. Jesus guide and protect all you want us to be.
Lord, I wish I could say I did not know what was scarier; getting up and leading 300 people to worship on a weekend or running out to see a car in the side of a building and your granddaughter feet away from what could have been tragedy.
Thank you for filling this weekend with your presence in so many ways. Thank you that no one but the vehicle and building had been the only things that ended up damaged in this mishap. Be with our brother who suffers from MS and will really need you these next couple of days. As he was on the mend be with him from any relapse.
Thank you for protecting our spiritual family and my sidekick.
Faith over Fear right Jesus! The meaning behind so much unanswered. Doubt for your love and will is not one of them.
Be with all I am connected now and whatever future days we may have. Lead me Father; Hold me. I just need to be held.
Thank you.
