But he was pierced
for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that
brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like
sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord
has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Thank you Jesus; for the song in my head as I awake this morning.
Way
Maker that is who you alone are God almighty!
Through my eyes, the eyes of the world or through the eyes of the storm.
Thank
you for allowing your peace to wash through me, not just over me. The craziness of all that is; all that we
bring; all that having others in the dwelling that just do not understand what
this is like to feel your spirit.
Thank you in advance for all of what once drove me crazy.
You
know at a very young age hiding grey hairs, or how someone would speak, or even
do things; or not do anything. The
fact of missing to what I thought was my childhood, to never wanting to grow
old. To knowing I never missed a thing;
just had something different on the journey you allowed me to travel.
Something
about even during those times before every knowing you just surviving, I had
some sort of peace to not have this mind that can-do triple time firing. Not full the craziness that could have broke
me. Your peace as I look up at my wall
of what seems to have some crooked family photo’s looking back at me. I can smile for all of it.
That
is, who you are Jesus. Comforter, Protector,
Breath of Life even in the storms. You
always have heavens horizon in view for those who allow you to come. Thank you for being the King of this
heart. Thank you just as for many years
you allowed me to be and do by choices of my own. Allowing me to own the outcomes, even if they
were not always all mine.
Yes,
songs trigger those feelings that come flooding be it a 9, 14, 16, 18, 21 or 55;
you Jesus you are my anchor who allows me to know, crave and believe in my
Forever Sweet Soul King, Beyond all time and space. All that was is no more, all that will be
belongs to the maker of all the universe of this galaxy or the next. Thank you, Abba, as that once baby in Christ
would imagine sitting next to you with my head in your lap just being held and
comforted by her father she never had.
To the days you carry me or in the middle of a crowd just knowing you are with me. If only!
The world could taste and see you are good.
From
the seriousness of this world pandemic that America was notified to start
practicing social distancing and even now all non-essential businesses to close
and if possible, work from home 3/17/2020 I believe is when we first heard of it. Although that Monday was in my office but
working from home thankfully ever sense.
For
the leaders during this time, those on the right and those on the left still
trying to pick each other apart instead of working for the good of mankind. Some would still rather just be selfish and
see the world fall at their feet as long as they get what they want.
Unfortunately,
greed, selfishness, meism’s and all that leads to darkness eventually has no
face. At anytime it can be anyone of us. In fact, many us who have been blessed to
come and know you Jesus once were lost, falling short to what you allowed
humanity to be created for.
It
is your love alone Jesus, that brings us home.
Will you direct the steps of all your people?
May
this world come to know your peace, your true mercy and grace? Are we not all dead men and women walking in
this world?
It
is not until we meet you where we are that life everlasting fills us up.
My perspective, my thoughts; you know it,
those pieces of me that come out over time.
From the contagious laughter of a baby or young child laughing uncontrollable
to the excitement of those puppies as you play with them and the energy and excitement
across the room as they run towards you.
We
all have our own thoughts, perspectives, beliefs; what ever it is you want to
call it.
Here
am I with mine sometimes riddling out as the keys tap all over the place to
actual feelings and pains.
All
the time knowing that you Lord are still my God and the only truth that set
this captive free long ago.
Wishfully
thinking it matters to those who ever walk this world, or at least plants the
seeds of hope in those going through it.
You know that it; loss, pain, heartbreak, illness, brokenness mind body
or spirit. You are the difference maker Father
God and your passport is through our Prince of Peace. Jesus Christ!
Lord,
may it be your will alone that leads by example with whatever I do, whatever I
say in this dwelling I have been given.
Even on the days I fall right off that stool and face plant in what is
worldly dust and dirt. May I be allowed
to keep getting back up lifting my hands to you for nothing more if necessary
but to have you pick me upholding me tightly letting me know I am still your
child. Give me the confidence Jesus
every second of every day you allow me up.
Give me that strength to
continue fighting the elements and although I too come close, I will continue
to bend and not break to what is temporary.
Lead me Jesus!
Consume me and all I am connected from the
inside out. Jesus may all your people
feel you, bringing you praise. My
heart and soul Jesus I gave control long back.
Use me, Use this here and now to shine brightly!

not even here [in the wilderness] remained alive after [b]seeing Him [who sees me with
understanding and compassion]?” 14 Therefore

19 On the evening of that first day of the week, when the
disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders,
Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!”
Colossians 3:15 (NIV) 15 Let
the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were
called to peace. And be thankful.
================================
He was despised and
rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from
whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.
Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished
by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.

Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Thank you for the laughter over silliness yesterday with all of us Lord!
Thank
you for the time we are given in such uncertain times to just inhale and know
we are blessed here and now. Thank you
for another morning to hear the birds singing and whatever opportunities are
ahead in this day.
Thank
you for allowing me to remember the day I hopped into the van with some
brothers and sisters and drive a couple hours south after work to catch that
Bethel concert and not get home until 1am on a workday. Filled with your spirit and peace. Thank you for the memories seeing the video that
fills this spirit with comfort knowing how much better it is with you.
From
the nourishment given running to Hillsong, Crowder, TobyMac, Brandon Heath, Josh
Wilson, to name a few that I have been blessed to see since 1995 and even some
purposely seeing every chance I can.
Just because! All I have found
in this journey has not compared to even a slice of that favorite anything as the
peace my journey has been filled with since I have been called your child.
I
wish I could have the words, the deeds, the actions to let the world see how
good you really are Jesus. Yet, you
have corrected me so many times as I have tried to convince my own blood of
such. We all get there in our own
time. Sometimes that time is never
during our own time here in this place, while we are blessed to the journey called to be; not all of us will make those choices to appreciate just what we really have..
It
is a hard journey to understand who you really are when going through the
worldly fires. Sometimes even walking
with you we stumble and feel more worldly pains then we need to.
Today
is no different than 2000 years ago. We
must purpose to allow you to us for all that is pure, and good in you.
That
can be simple for some and like climbing a mountain with spewing lava running
down it for others.
However,
you will come to our rescue. Waiting
there with arms wide open waiting for us patiently t to acknowledge and run to you alone.
For
me just I see you!
I feel your presence; for this I am beyond blessed to know you.
Praying no matter what is or is not in this world. All I am connected seek the goodness, love and peace I have been given. They all get to feel and know you Lord.
I feel your presence; for this I am beyond blessed to know you.
Praying no matter what is or is not in this world. All I am connected seek the goodness, love and peace I have been given. They all get to feel and know you Lord.
May
we take this time to reflect on all the blessings we have, and not look at the
losses we will suffer as wasted. Give us
strength, guiding us in your will Jesus not our own. May we be all that you call us to be,
finding peace and truth even in the fires.
The
burn is real; for these past several years so much has happened, lives of the
innocent souls you created, shook in the storms and earthquakes to the
core. As the earth splits apart and the
volcanos erupt, we still here in this world cling to what is temporary. Not acknowledging you until something or
someone is taken away. Doing our own thing, allowing what the world
is to make us into something you never intended.
Even
the darkness once was in the light. How
do we bring that back Jesus?
Only
through you, living in the hearts and souls on the front lines. Through the voices and songs singing loudly for
all that you are not what they have or want to be.
I
wish I knew where these words come from at times; but am thankful you allow
this mind maze to churn and soul to feel.
Not
just writing or talking about the broken hearts club, of dreamers and lost
loves or the perfect romance. Absolute
truths, flowing through the veins you allow this heart to pump life
through. Locked away in the depths of my
soul there is one key.
Truth
and passion never count the cost until it is too late. Forgiveness is a must even if what once was
is now in the wind like the dust. Do
not call upon each other’s faults. Decide
right here, right now if and when you will answer or just play the avoidance
game and stall.
What
each and everyone of us does matters. There
are not tomorrows promised in this noisy chaotic world filled with death and
clatter.
If
you do not care about yourself, at least respect those around you by common
sense that will help.
Jesus
thank you for allowing me to lift my hands.
May I fight to the end of my journey in this world to give all I am in
all you call me to step out in faith for.
Thank
you for all my fellow believers, brothers, sister’s family blood and in spirit
who have loved me through this journey; even when I never knew how to love
myself. Thank you for allowing me to
know truly what love feels like from the inside out.
There
will never be a dollar amount, a deed, a word or anything this world can give
or take that will count the cost that you have already paid to allow me life.
The
sun will rise again as you will Jesus.
No matter what, No matter when.
You Father God are in control!
May
we learn to breathe you in, allowing the laughter, the tears, that will fill
the heartache washing away any fears.
I
lift all our first responders up to you Jesus for guidance and protection;
during these troubled times. They signed
up to heal and help; and are being put in situations that no man should.
Please
heal this land, no matter what that looks like.
Stop the madness before it really starts. Guide and protect, leading your chosen where
you want them to be. May you Jesus
suffer no more for all we cannot see.
Thank
you for this day. Thank you for allowing me to be AlwaysMe!
Prayers Father God for all the suffering and sickness related to this Covid19
virus. For all those we know and all the
nameless we will never meet. May the one’s
you take home Lord be blessed with their spirits flying high with you.
May all of the suffering in the end reflect your truth with great
compassion and meaning.
May this is not just more hardships for those who do not know you and do
not have the opportunity to do so. May
all who turn their backs on you and their families suffer, Jesus.
Have mercy on the innocent. Protect and guide your people father God.
Anyone of us can and will be impacted we know this. I pray for my own family as one child works
in the frontline medical facility, another just will not stay in, another is
working to pay their own bills to keep things moving for the future.
How or what will be next is unknown for all of us. As I try to hold tight to the moments I can
laugh; wipe the tears when I feel overwhelmed and just keep diving deeper into be
near you Jesus. I know even if I cannot
see it. You have this and all your
people.
Forgive us, forgive me. For all the
times I made something out of nothing and nothing that should have been
something.
Thank you for the blessings of the birds still singing, and all that I am
able to experience, live, rest and
breathe through, with and by. Thank you
for your love, your kindness and so much mercy and grace. Jesus,
I know you will not forget your people.
Thank you

Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Thank you Jesus for this new day. For the birds are still singing as I sip this coffee, finishing my Special K with fresh raspberries. The sweet sounds.
What is it as the sound faintly in the distance of cartoons playing in the other room and the birds singing so loudly even from the distance, we can hear with doors closed and my heart smiles as I open the doors to hear the bird’s song more clearly knowing I am blessed to be up again, smiling knowing that child camped out in the living room in their own little mess is sleepy while watching cartoons.
Like every morning before coming out walking past that mirror hoping I still recognize who you created me to be Jesus. How bored over the years I have gotten. Not able to know my worth and always struggling with what worth I truly had. Even knowing after many years walking with you and learning more and more even through the pains of choices made out of a heart to big knowing how much I can thrive when I truly know I am doing good for someone. Excelling when it is for those I deeply care for.
While crashing hard in my own self-pity and gloom as sometime the heart was so big the vision was blinded to know your truth. Or the expectation on the other side as the imagination with our ego’s collide and make messes all because we do not trust you enough to hear.
Our self-worth in the here and now and we just want to feel the love we know of from the inside out wrapped tightly around us. Being overwhelmed like that sweet smell of orange or Japanese Cherry blossoms in full bloom.
Thinking as I pull this wild hair growing like crazy, up into a ponytail and smile knowing how careful I have to be to not be lazy and grudged out just because I am hanging around the house. Just because I do not need to pull the business casual or business out to go off to work. Even though I have never been the Barbie doll type I must remain comfortably casual.
Thinking how I got to where I am today in my personal journey always changing my look because I was never good enough. Until that one day I realized I never really knew who it was I was never good enough for.
Those of this world; myself or that of the same God who allowed me life pulling me out of the fire a million times in this journey.
I will still never be a high maintenance kind of girl. Yes, do I like dressing up and working it. Absolutely! But I also have no issues getting these hands dirty and even at times like yesterday with starting that power washing; end up covered in mud.
Just like walking through this house as I do my morning once over coming out of my room of the disorganization and extra stuff just laying around this house.
Thinking, Oh how I could justify it really if I wanted to be mad and complain. After all with three other souls in this house all fully capable of acknowledging and taking care of what is offered to them on any given day.
All the phrases running through this mind maze. You know that of which we never really appreciate what we have until it is gone; or unless we have to work for it ourselves. Or the weary mom coming out with that motivation and respect talk.
Rightfully so and even on those days where I say I should just get a studio apartment; I do not need any of this; if those whom I have worked to allow stability for do not care to maintain it why should I.
Yes, all those things when I find things laying around and it makes me crazy. Justifying in this mind even in my worse days trying to find self-worth and make my way with little. I took care of what was mine and respected what was not. But here and now some only step up when it really can do something for them. Or they stay so lost in self absorption holding and repeating back I can’t because……
Oh, how that thought alone drives me crazy. I Can’t! We can do, we can be, we can achieve whatever we believe and turn to God to guide us through.
These thoughts sometimes. No, I am not complaining; not even frustrated as I could be and sure will be somedays to come.
It all sounds so familiar I am sure of it to Jesus.
How many of us are stuck refusing to open the door to let you in Father God; how many of us are refusing to acknowledge the blessings you give us in each breath allowed.
Blessed with sight, sound, a voice and so much beauty. Yet we take whatever we feel we need or could use to serve our own purpose at the time.
Not everyone in a purposed selfish way. But we all do it. Unfortunately, and maybe because we have this venue to seek and see instant gratification. We see more and more, and we call it entitlement. We all have excuses, and surly as a parent I have made excuses for the child of mine who almost died and suffered with a ruptured spleen; and over the years became chronically ill because of it and then because of enablement trying to protect what God already had.
It is not the protection or even what we do as parents to try and prevent harm. But the fact as parents sometimes we act without thought like we truly have the control. Missing what we should or should not, have done or said. Love my children; they were the blessing God allowed me to find my life.
But even when we have more than one child, and we teach them equally. They are their own unique beings.
Beautifully created through and by our Lord and Savior. Just as we are. Along the way no matter what we say or do as parents, grandparents, or even carrying souls stepping up in out. No matter what we have or do not have; or do. They as their own unique being will make their own choices in the freedom of will that the same God that allowed us; allows them.
Unfortunately, we cannot even if we were the most vial soul in this universe and forcibly try to make anyone believe in themselves, in love, or that what we believe to really mean anything, that we do.
We cannot make someone become selfless for those who are selfish, we cannot get those who are stuck where they think everything has to be about them and all they think they have. All we can do is speak truth in love and lead by example. Praying and sometimes yelling, crying or even walking away.
We cannot change someone from thinking that as long as they are given each new day to get up that there will always be new opportunities to seek with Christ leading the way.
Everyone of us have our own perception and way of handling things. Those that we have come through, those that we have seen, and those we are trapped in the middle of such as this Covid19 Pandemic.
In all honesty currently I do not even know what the statics are. I try not to watch the news, but scan for periodic updates to make sure if we are working our way towards our very own Mad Max Water world movie of the 20th century? Or this is the beginning of the real life Left Behind series. I am ready. Yet so ill informed and where will I go. What will I do when even this kid of mine still goes out three four times a day? What happens when the grand that has to work at the local market so they can pay their own bills walks out those doors each time. Or even my first-born who works in health care and is exposed. Like everyone I have the inner churnings of those thoughts that flow through and well if you know me; without even thought I am always having that Mom thing flow out of this mouth. Even in my day today. I guess when you make it through 57 and have had a very full life as I have. You tend to try without even thought to make others to proceed with caution.
Even when my own won’t listen to it. That is where I get frustrated the most is how could some be so selfish. It is truly not about me when I have to step out; and I do all I can as quickly as I can to distance myself and get back to my little save haven as it is for this day.
Most importantly I look to God for all things that are and are yet to come. I am not ready to check out nor am I ready to see or hear anyone I love is impacted by any of this mess health wise. As we knew the world, we know will never be the same again. However, facing the unseen elements with the shield of faith and the breast plate of righteousness is all I can do.
Besides speaking up, washing my hands and praying thanks for whatever may come.
Remaining steadfast myself, knowing how I wish I could just pour Gods wisdom over each one of these souls in this house. But I cannot force them to meet Jesus and build the relationship in Him as I found it.
So, as I work through my various devotionals and reading time this morning.
With all the things that this overactive mind maze fires off.
Thank you, Abba, for allowing me the ability to take my time these days more at peace, more rested. Not starting in the wee hours rushing through and running out the door.
Or just because I am awake unable to sleep as I am searching.
Allowing me to truly breathe you in and feeling your presence for more than a couple hours after this day starts.
Today, in my King James version, I am taken to Romans 6:23 “For the wages of SIN is death” really not wanting to share that out as I share many of my new readings.
Yet still in the book of Joshua and His journey and faith, as I work through The One Year Chronological Bible flipping over to Why Easter, feeling the strength and courage and knowing God is still in control.
As I am feeling
pretty blessed to know over the past year, I have been able to complete over
177 reading plans. Growing deeper in
faith.
Yet, wondering
other than my spirit being fed even in troubled times where I cannot gather in
person for worship or with my weekly Bible Study group to finish going through
the book of Mathew, leaving me to now work in finishing it off and in awe of
all I have seen but really just seeing like the first time. God opening my eyes like the first time each
time I read through.
I too could and sometimes still fall back to meism’s and make what I feel publicly about me, allowing broken dreams and that sometimes lonely-hearts club to beat me up.
I too could and sometimes still fall back to meism’s and make what I feel publicly about me, allowing broken dreams and that sometimes lonely-hearts club to beat me up.
Or even try to
dissect things. Or defend why I refuse
to jump on the opportunity of filling the gap with those who pretend to believe
we who are totally different with totally different beliefs could be more than
just vessels passing through and admiring the qualities we have all been given
without expectations of anything more.
What about those we pray there was something more. The river of emotions each are given to swim
through; have the life preserve the life jacket of Jesus Christ to wrap around
us daily.
No matter how deep I dive in or how much I read. Knowing, I am special in the Lord but no different than anyone else here on this earth. Except the fact I refuse to settle for anything less than what God has promised me.
I refuse to give away the peace for worldly goods; or lose my soul. Matthew 16:26 (NIV) 26 What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
https://youtu.be/yiePk16Yf3o “Lose My Soul” @TobyMac, Kirk Franklin, Mandisa
However, none of what I believe, well it does not make me any more special or different to the world or other souls that walk within it. Blessed to truly know personally almost all 500+ people on my social media account; or that of having a loving family even if they are not walking the walk I am on. To truly have friends that are different and are beautifully broken as I am.
There is truly a wow factor more times than not, to surly know how I have been filled up during some pretty crazy trying times and blessed to know be it a book, the Bible, on-line or real hand-held Bible, or electronic gadget I walk around in my hands; or even the words of souls filling me up in truth or their own reasons.
I know there are so many ways we have been given to reach out digging deeper into who you are Jesus. Even more so blessed to know, it is okay to not be okay; and to love others.
Knowing, no matter what I feel on this earth, or what to expect the day I get to meet Jesus face to face. Brings tears of joy even now while scaring the daylights out of me knowing I fell short from your grace from the day I came to this earth. Yet you love me anyway!
There is so much uncertain and unknown in this world; I know the one thing for sure is that I will get that chance.
Even in my foolish choices and/or mishaps. Be it I contributed to or allowed to transpire or even stumbled into within this world you allowed me to live, God.
Even when it hurts Jesus; I will praise you alone. Yes, there are some people, places and things I absolutely am in awe of.
Some I greatly love and imagine what it would be like to serve or just be there and have some of the beauty and goodness rub off on me 24/7. Pulling back fast and furious knowing how easy I could make them more than I should.
So easy we can make things beside you Jesus, the idols with simple admirations, spending all our time chasing them, chasing it. Easily consumed later to be overwhelmed by what just we see and hear in this world.
I choose to fight and grow forward with the blessings of the living Christ, Holy Spirit living and flowing in these veins.
I never have before knowing God and never will now after want to gain the world and lose my soul. I have seen the light and lived in the darkness. I know the truth, and this will never change.
However also knowing just because I have been blessed to have my name written in the book of life with the lamb’s blood.
God has created us all with purpose, love and grace for equality; and while doing my best to keep it real and love all people for who they are not what they have or do; well we all are mare humans.
No matter if the one who is on center stage is still just a dude or Chica, or all the places of this world were laid at our feet in vast abundance. Never must we spend too much time and effort chasing that of the world while pushing you out Father God.
To know you God, we know we are we are truly blessed yet blinded to even see things right were we sit or stand.
The great unknowns may forever be. But one absolutely is that things of this world will always come and go. Everything will have a time and place on this earth.
It is where our souls are will seek eternity after the vessels are removed.
Believe what you must; we all believe in something, even if it is to not believe in anything. We all get to choose.
For me I know no matter how big my heart gets out of control, blinding and burning in compassion because I genuinely care or really need the truth to just have that love of my Sweet Soul King that loves me from the inside out to wrap around and rub all the goodness off on me daily; breathing in the essence of purity and truth; to just knowing what it is like to have been wanted or needed.
Well sometimes that need and compassion blinds me to burn for those I never would be more than a current chess pawn in the chess game of life.
As the echoes of their laughter in the darkness are no more.
Jesus has leveled the board game, sandbox or playing field. We all get to choose; and I will always survive with my soul intact. I can assure if nothing else in this world of truth that is in the depths I am allowed to swim.
No matter what the game is, no matter how trapped, captured, panicked, doubted, overwhelmed, unloved, or even lost this world offers any of us; when the beauty fades in all we chase, desire or create. No matter how much pain, sorrow that comes in the loss.
There is only one truth. We are all created equal falling short of the Glory of God the Father and created, Son of God Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit that allows us to live within when we accept Jesus into our lives.
Will I even knowing how loved I truly am by the one who created the stars and moon; still at times falling short and allow this world overwhelm me for what was or what I wish was or even currently is. Most likely I will stumble; but knowingly landing in the arms of Jesus Christ.
I will still have that deep indescribable peace; only Jesus Christ the Prince of Peace allows us.
I will still choose to follow Him and do my best to leave the grave behind while here and now; and believe and know just how precious this gift given to choose has been.
Will you?
There is a time for everything, and everything has it’s time.
What will you choose in this here and now time?
No matter what you choose or believe; I pray you have a blessed day or evening wherever you are. Stay safe, stay aware and know nothing lasts forever. This too shall pass!

Death becomes us all, eventually; Some sooner, some later not to worry, not to dismay; Influenza, Covid19, Heroin, cocaine, Methamphetamine, sedatives, antidepressants or even ecstasy. I ask the believer where is your faith, death where is your sting?

Where, O death, is your sting?”[a] 56 The
sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

Turning to the Lord ] When all these blessings and curses I have set
before you come on you and you take them to heart wherever the Lord your God disperses you among the
nations, and when you and your children return to the Lord your God and obey him with all your heart and with all
your soul according to everything I command you today, then the Lord your God will restore your fortunes
and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where he
scattered you. ...
We all get to choose; this indeed we do. Who we love, who we wait for, who we dream of, and that of who we allow our connections to lose? Take no offense if you are fooled. Get back up and fight forward with all the best of you. This is no surprise it will never be if; but when it will happen to you.

You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your
freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in

This world is hard, getting harder every second
So very painful and lonely when there is truly not one, we can trust, one that comes to check on us; even those friends we wish we had as a pain in the neck
Never lose faith, do not let your heart harden, if you feel it cry out to Jesus now before it is too late
For there is nothing while you are alive in Him you cannot do
Faith in Action
11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and
assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the
ancients were commended for.
3 By faith we understand that the universe was
formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was
visible.
4 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than
Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his
offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.
5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that
he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him
away.”[a] For
before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 6 And
without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him
must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet
seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned
the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith.
8 By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place
he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did
not know where he was going. 9 By faith he made his home
in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents,
as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. 10 For
he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and
builder is God. 11 And by faith even Sarah, who was past
childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she[b]
considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12 And
so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as
the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
13 All these people were still living by faith when
they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and
welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and
strangers on earth. 14 People who say such things show
that they are looking for a country of their own. 15 If
they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had
opportunity to return. 16 Instead, they were longing for
a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called
their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Once you are gone, if you thought your destiny here was bad your torture through eternity is horrible and far beyond
Scream from the top of your lungs even if you cannot hear; I assure you do it now Jesus is waiting, and you need not fear
No this is not to be doom and gloom or that negative nelly in a room
I already know where I belong and to whom. Just wondering if you do?
4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to
hell,[a] putting them in chains of darkness[b] to be held for judgment; 5 if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on
its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven
others;
Does it shake me, break me with tears at times that flow; watching the chaos all around and that way it did not have to go.
It will get crazier, that is not a lie, for all of us not just you but me also, be it I have many more days or tomorrow I die; I am okay in my spirit, in my soul so whatever happens; keep it right and do not fail bad for feeling when you release and cry.
Sadness for the babies, for the youth for the evil that will consume. Know I lived I loved in every breath from you dear Lord.
I know those dreams were real the cycle I did not understand the warnings left on selective eyes, deaf ears; caught up in this mind maze of self-pain for allowing someone to know I could care
Know I forever love your soul, filled with Jesus so righteous, innocent yet bold
Nothing of this world could ever be done to change the truth that is has ever been told
Someday I will sit on that porch looking out over the horizon
Knowing God had a greater plan than I will ever know. Someday I pray, I am surrounded in all that love, mercy and grace shining brightly waiting patiently for the story to unfold.
