 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

Interesting morning Lord: taking the second vaccine yesterday and although no symptoms like many describe.  Perhaps because I have been pumping up on Tylenol every 4 hours to keep from fever, aches, and pains.    Absolutely a different kind of tired with that faint something is different in the background.

Thank you for this day no matter what it is and all those that have come before.   Thank you for the challenge to think and double check as I just feel good but off in a different way.

I will be spending the day in rest and resting this mind.    As I read through this morning “Not everyone you love will stay.  Not everyone you trust will be loyal.  Some people only enter our lives as a lesson or example of what to avoid.” @LoveWideOpen.Com

How each lesson through my time has reminded me of who I never want to be like.   Loving others through you, with you is the only truth in the end that will heal, give hope, and allow many more days of getting back up.

Thinking about the reasons why I took this vaccine and all the unknowns.  Knowing you are in control.  Knowing I am trying to do my part with deep hope you Jesus would have intervened for your children who stepped up for this if we were not supposed to do so.    You know all things.

Me ready to find that some sort of normal doing my part; diving in staying busy trying to be that one lesson no one else needs to go through to learn.

Feeling that love of those closest to me finally able to hug on those that has been too long.

Life is what it is until it is not.   Prayerfully we while making the best of it along the way work towards doing it selflessly learning how to turn off our selfish ambitions of me’ism that uses up all those that come along, in and out of our journey we are allowed.

 

It takes training and patience, and we have to become obedient to what we chase, what we follow, what we let in.  We have to stop playing that spiritual tug of war with you Jesus.   Please take this, please fix this; no wait I found a new way of what might work.    

Slowly that vapor fading away be it at the hands of my own demise in all that is meant for good or bad, selflessly, or selfishly.     At some point we all fade away back into the dust you formed us from. 

 

That dash in-between what you allow us in and out Jesus.     What we do with it, what we will be forgiven for, of or burn throughout the eternity we are left with when our time stamp ticket out arrives.       You gave us freedom of choice.

Please show mercy on those struggling to know how to stop the cycle, how to heal in you how to even know you are with them always.

Faith over fear.   Like that teenage lost kid walking through the inner city, she grew-up in at night and a major blackout takes over.  When suddenly one of those punk friends sneak up behind me walking thinking it would be funny to scare me.     I was always a fighter for survival and never letting anyone near me back then unless I gave in.

What about the girl that was pinned up against a church being beat up because at such a very young age she was sleeping around with other boyfriends?   

No not me, I was the mediator, somehow just in the right place at the right time to safe them from being beat to a horrible mess.    Not sure if they ever learned as later that friend, even married in a volatile marriage at that; ends up sleeping with the one I was living with for many years.

So crazy;  Forgiveness is a mighty thing!    Some people are just lost and their own worse enemies.   Thankfully, they are still living in the here and now and with one person that loves them beyond all the indiscretions: yet suffering horribly with health issues.

I remember so many years ago it seems when they begged me to forgive them and take the healing stone and give them a chance by praying over it.      

 

Me a lost soul myself not walking with you then; but what did they know when I forgave them and learned to pray it would bring me to the foot of the cross and needing you deep within this being to be anything Jesus!

All my life fighting for that truth and realness in all relationships be it me jumping in being a mediator for all those girls be it just too loose or those just at the hands of abusers because they had the bully control.

Something to be said being robbed from childhood and not knowing what life really should have been to know a mother, father and know someone was always there to protect us as children in our growth.

 

Not sure but guess this is where this mind maze is going today.   Thankful you never gave up on me Father.   

Seeing so clearly, I have never been on my own even during the darkest times that I never understood or should of, would of, could of moments in this life given.

You allow us your strength and courage with that freedom to change.   Even when we do not know to what or where.    And once we allow you in Holy Spirit nothing is ever the same!

No matter what you will never let go.    Even when so many in the world discard what is meant for beauty, love and indescribable joy used up bubble-gum.

 

I used to fight for having my significance in just someone.    That gap that a child yearns for from a mother and father, a lover from their life partner.    Just that which when they hold you; you are allowed to just exhale and rest and know that single second is a lifetime.    

Blessed to have realized that you Jesus are that glue that has put me together and held me tight leading me out of the darkness more times than not.

 

Those moments where you allow me to remember and see the light on the other end of each journey that did get dark.    Thank you!

For then, for now and for anything that may be.

May all I am connected know you, and purpose to learn and walk with you.   Heal this world Jesus for all the broken pieces not just an unseen virus.    Heal this land for the brokenness we each carry forth.

Heal all that I am for your will.  Love all that I am connected in your truth.

 

May we all want a love like you Jesus Love Like Jesus |Hyper Fenton & Moflo Music (Featuring Dr. Scott Fenton)
