Prayers (Thinking out
loud)
I need that joy, joy,
joy down in my heart to stay! The only
way I have that is with you Jesus. Believing,
hoping, wanting all you lived, breathed to life, suffered, and died for. Peace indescribable when the world around us
seems so broken, racist and beyond hateful at times.
We get to choose what
kind of relationships we want to groom, or allow our own beings be groomed by.
We get to play in the
sandbox and believe in those that are out for their own human selfishness or
surround ourselves up and try to get some of the growth those beautiful seeds
growing in God’s garden through the son Jesus Christ and all he wanted for
humanity.
Love, Mercy and Grace. Priceless and fully available starting with
our own beings and all that we connect.
Mean spirited, harmful,
toxic people did not come into the world to be so. Unfortunately, at the hands of others they
were molded, broken, and made to believe in the darkness.
Yes, there is some
mental illness in the world, chemical imbalance, and many needing counseling if
not medication. While others just need
love and someone to listen.
Many times, people will
just walk on by and not give the time of day if it does not mean something for
them. Others try to fix what is not theirs
to be mend.
Like the hamster on the
wheel, we all get stuck in our what next at times even if we do not admit it because
we do not want anyone to know we are not perfect, fine, or perfectly fine in
the world we live.
Only God is perfect and
no matter if you choose to believe it or not, just like the wind blows and you
only see what it moves; is real. As is
the God that holds the universe in his hands.
What if we all started
to believe in the power of prayer and instead of talking about all that is
wrong with one person, place, or thing; We genuinely prayed?
What if we stop trying
to change people that do not want to be changed; if they did, they would make
the efforts and fight hard and forward for what they want. What if we plant the seeds of hope,
opportunity where to go for change and prayed?
What if those little
things that set me off stayed at the foot of the cross and I believed in God’s
timing and not my own playing that spiritual tug of war giving it to him then
pulling it back to fix in my own time?
It hurts like hell to
watch those you love dearly hurt and go through things and they do not have it
together like a parent would want for their babies. It hurts like hell to constantly absorb
all the unfairness of how people genuine and true work with all they have and
do right in the eyes of society and even have that deep faith relationship with
Christ and Father God. Yet it seems
they are always layered up with brokenness or stuff that sets them back from just
being able to breathe freely.
All the while the groomer is out stealing and
offending innocence. The hustler is always
seeming to get ahead at the expense of others. The thief is stealing right in front of us
and taking people, places, things, even our identities to be something they are
not or do not deserve according to our standards.
What they are taking
does not belong to us even if we spent 900 hours working hard for it or 9000
dollars. Everything we are given is a
loan on life and although I myself am weary for those who take advantage and
harm the future of many. God is in
control; and has given each one of us the ability to choose what we will do for
what is in our reach next.
Thank you, Jesus, for
this new day of opportunities and the 10,000 reasons we can purpose and find to
be alive and make this day we are given count.
It may not seem like it when we find ourselves unemployed; homeless;
sick physically or emotionally.
When it seems, we are
surrounded but so alone or even not fitting into the mold the world has
created. When people do not understand
who we are or how we feel. When
judgment and all that hate, or matter of fact must be creates those who thought
would love us to the end to turn their back because we no longer fit their expectations.
How do we find the
Brave new world we are to believe in when we do not have something filled with
hope and mercy to guide us?
When the static and
noise block out the abilities for even the most hated to hear you Jesus. May those you have chosen be the voice to
calm the storms and allow your rain to wash through each and every soul.
May those fighting to
belong, fighting for the rainbow, or fighting to just be something come to know
you will fight for every soul who believes and calls upon your name.
Be it the real-life
nightmares that shake us awake at night and we share out; but no one listens or
dreams in the day. You Jesus will
never stop fighting for those who call upon you. Even when we cannot see it, feel it or be
what we think it should be.
When the empty promises
in the dark flow like rivers no matter if it something or nothing all may we, may
I purpose to be even a flicker of light on the path we are journeying.
Just when we think our
plans are in order, we got it down things can change. Those that were at the top are now at the
bottom. Those who spent years in college
and tons of money are in the unemployment line or flipping burgers. Those who had what they say everything now
are considered the least of these. Even
when those who are considered to have come from nothing or are nothing become
the difference the world needs.
You are our rescue
story that is ever lasting; that which we no longer feel empty and find the
need to fill voids that just never seemed full before we called upon you each day,
we are allowed up Jesus.
Yes, we still dream; yes,
we still desire and live good, bad, or indifferent. But you get us and allow us to be alive,
never giving up on us. Allowing us to
know the only thing we need is the one to whom we belong, the one to whom we
are created in the image of. God alone!

“I want to be Central in your entire being.
When your focus is firmly on Me, My Peace displaces fears and worries. They
will encircle you, seeking entrance, so you must stay alert. Let trust and thankfulness stand guard,
turning back fear before it can gain a foothold. There is no fear in My Love, which shines on
you continually. Sit quietly in My Love-Light
while I bless you with you with radiant Peace.
Turn your whole being to trusting and loving Me.”
2 Thessalonians 3:16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you
peace at all times and in every way. The
Lord be with all of you.
1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love
drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
Numbers 6:25-26 NKJV “The Lord make His face shine upon you, and be
gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.”
