Psalm 116:1-2  (NLV)  New Life Version

I love the Lord, for he heard my voice;   he heard my cry for mercy.
Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.

 

Psalm 116:1-2 (KJV)  King James Version

116 I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.

Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.

Psalm 116:1-2  (MSG)  The Message Version

1-6 I love God because he listened to me, listened as I begged for mercy.
He listened so intently as I laid out my case before him.

Death stared me in the face, hell was hard on my heels.
Up against it, I didn’t know which way to turn;  then I called out to God for help:
“Please, God!” I cried out.       “Save my life!”
God is gracious—it is he who makes things right, our most compassionate God.

God takes the side of the helpless; when I was at the end of my rope, he saved me.

  Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

Not even close if you are predicting what I will be writing about based on music today…  you see if I could turn back time; if I had the power I would change and wash away all the pain and all the sorrow our world and so many innocent beautiful souls are walking through right now.    Bad enough we are watching innocence left to the slaughterhouse of evil across the miles.   But so close to home where so many have lost so much to unsuspecting mother nature.

 

So easy to keep telling everyone get it right with their souls and what really matters because truly everything including us will and can be gone in a split second.    Here we watch across the news where floods ravaged and took so much beauty leaving death and destruction along the way.

If I could turn back time, yes, I would do things differently knowing what I know now to get that ultimate do-over hoping, praying, and pushing so many to just be better humans in the name of Jesus.

It’s not to late if we are here and now.  But truly it does not wash away the times of sorrow we are all walking through in the here and now.    Death, destruction, chaos, hate and all the crazy coming out everywhere we look. 

My heart is broken for all those lost, all those who just cannot catch a break, those going through it and do not have the hope and peace of Jesus Christ deep inside to help them get back up and shine on.

The past will forever haunt me, yet it does not control me.   The one and only carries me through and has allowed me to grow in and with him.  During all the wars, storms, almost, or absolutes Jesus is the one and only that can reflect the beauty in all the ashes.      No matter how bad it hurts somedays when I realize I have been given another day.    When so many are fighting around me to just survive.

Never being one to just ignore it and dive into just me sometimes the weight of wonder and unanswered why’s are heavier than I wish they would be.    But I know my God and truly everyone’s God who calls upon the name of Jesus is unstoppable and far more aware of anything and everything that I could, or we could ever make sense of or through any of the chaos that is swallowing up this world we were given to make life in.

Fires, wars, self-destruction, floods, storms, broken lives, broken relationships, broken pieces of me, broken pieces of you scattered while all the knowing he puts those who believe in His promises back together more beautiful than ever before.

I wish I could have met Jesus in his time, but he has given all of us our time here and now.  But to see and watch the strength, courage, through all the pains and sorrows he witnessed and walked through walking up to calvary we will never compare to what His sacrifice gives.   Never be worthy enough, never understand, never fully get it or even acknowledge truth through all the power in the pain he took to allow us life.

Every single soul is going through something they can’t talk about, they cannot stop crying about or they are angry, hurt and taking it out on everyone around them about.

Before you speak, before you react. Pray God gives you the strength, mercy, and grace to step out and step up helping where you can.  Even if that means just sitting and listening.  

    All those things you are letting to go to waste cluttering up, can be used by those who have lost everything.  The power of prayer from the depths of your soul that have your heart strings in knots, mean more than life to someone.     

Jesus hears our war cries; be loud or silent.     Cry out for you, cry out for me, cry out for the future of this world.     Things will never be the same.   The new normal is changing every day.

Join me in lifting our nation, our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers and all the children of any future to hopefully a brighter and a better days and pains across the globe filled with hope and promise and people actually trying to contribute to make it so.  I reposted a social media post yesterday that just stuck with me.  

Author unknown but posted by the spiritual mind.   “Dying doesn’t scare me.  What scares me is living in a world run by evil people, who control the destiny of our children.”

How true and sad this is.  Where so much corruption and harm placed at the hands of those who have some sort of power is in such utter chaos and no one knows what they want to be any more they just want to agree with everything, so they don’t feel left out of anything.

 

Everyone gets a prize, no one declares right or wrong.  Just do it takes on a new meaning.  And lets just keep enabling our children so much they are disabled.      Disable to think for themselves, to handle life for themselves or allow them too much to where they burn in the luxury furnace of all that is given to them.

I am guilty.   My kids know I would do anything to help them get back up.    Yet when I think about it no one has ever been that or there for me in such a way I did not purpose to fight forward and try not only to make a better future for me, but anyone I was blessed to ride the train of life with.

 

I have never been a runner.  Early on I have had to fight my way just to survive.    And I can joke and laugh about how in my younger days I would challenge bullies when they would try to press or push on me or those near me.    Even sometimes today I forget I am not 20 anymore and say well you better make sure you take me out because if I get back up and you have harmed any of the heartstrings that control this heart.     You will live to regret it.

 

Chuckling when I think about it.  Because I will not need to do a thing.    My God even in the pain, and not understood purpose of all things I have walked through in this journey.   Has always been faithful for and to me.    I am His!   Nothing can change that.   He will always serve up justice to those indiscretions.   Yours, Mine!...

 

You are his as well; you just have to acknowledge it and dive in and really purpose to understand each day what it means to pick up that moral compass and have Jesus lead you.

Its not easy, by far; especially in the world as we know it.   But just keep fighting forward.  Just keep getting back up each day given.   Just keep seeking His will to fill you up and be that helping hand in works and deeds, in listening, in speaking, in everything or anything he puts upon your spirit.

The worlds needs good to shine brighter than every before.   The time of sorrows is here hold on tightly and give thanks and all you are to not letting the world consume all you can be.

 

Zephaniah 3:18 (MSG)  The Message Version

“The accumulated sorrows of your exile will dissipate.
I, your God, will get rid of them for you.
    You’ve carried those burdens long enough.
At the same time, I’ll get rid of all those
who’ve made your life miserable.
I’ll heal the maimed;
I’ll bring home the homeless.
In the very countries where they were hated
they will be venerated.


On Judgment Day
   I’ll bring you back home—a great family gathering!
You’ll be famous and honored
all over the world.
You’ll see it with your own eyes—all those painful partings turned into reunions!”
        God’s Promise.

What the Bible Says About The Beginning of Sorrows - Bible Resources  

Now I cannot read the future and I cannot say if what those that right are anything more than just sharing pieces, thoughts, opinions like me.  But I can say knowing all throughout the Bible it has been made clear and many things have come to pass and many more are our current day events around the globe.

So why not ready your stance here and now.  Why not put on the Armor of God starting with that relationship between you and Jesus.  Right where you are.     Openly, privately it is up to you.   But dear soul don’t risk the eternal placement of what you will relive over and over again by holding on to a world full of temporal reckless abandonment.      Dive in, learn about the beginning and ending of times.   Learn who you were created to be and love all that is good, all that is kind, and all that Jesus was, is and forever will be.

Yeah, I am sure there are some rolling in their graves to know how in love with someone I have never seen.   And to call upon the name of Jesus and know even though I cannot touch a physical being to make it truth.    I somehow understand that even the wind that I cannot hold in my hands that fills my lungs is a blessing from what I cannot fully justify or explain.

Anyway…  Sorrow in today’s world is real.    Grasp on to all that is good, all that is bright to shine hope, life, love, and laughter growing forward wherever you can.

You, me none of us are exempt.     Flesh, Spirit good, bad, or indifferent.   We all will need to adjust every moment we are given to whatever the new normal’s are transpiring to be.    I know I cannot do this on my own.  That is why I gave all that I am, all I have all that I will be to the one who died for me so I can live.    I pray if you have done so yet…You start now.   I pray if you/if I have, you hold tight to whatever you have on Jesus and never let go.  No matter what it takes and keep getting back up with and for him.

 

Heavenly Father, I fall short every second of every day I am given.   Swirling and whirling up and running thinking its my place when you are in control of all things.    Lead me and guide me with or alone.  All that you want in, for or through this life.    Hear this heart and the so many needs, wants, cries, and just misunderstood that I am connected.     Consume all that we are in your beauty, in your ways, in your light.   But if you do not.   Give us the courage to keep fighting forward for and with humanity.   Heal us Jesus.  Guide us, teach us, and show us how to love like you love us.
