Thinking Out Loud – Journal Thoughts/Prayers / Mind Maze Overflow
Sometime these days just run together even when I am not
holding it. I may not be falling and
crumbling but dang not sure how or why I even manage on some days when all the
dots that are meant to connect making a day become one big messy something.
Don’t get me wrong I am beyond blessed and I rock it when
I take off and do what I do.
My role is a servant to keep people and what they need to
do together and somewhat on point; all the while sharing pieces of me here and
there. Then coming back home trying to see
my vision come to the front and more needs just sometimes piling up. All the while learning what to hold and what
to let go.
Beyond bless that God is in this house and I am not talking
about the shack I am blessed to call home.
I am talking about that grace and strength Jesus fills me up with
through all the hills and valleys, crazy rides or those that leave me stuck on
the top of that ride of any day waiting to get the right buttons pushed to come
back down just to start over again.
Life is funny like that.
Pick your poison but know who the healer is, the antidote or in many cases
when we do not even realize it the shield that protects and guides us through
things that could destroy all we are and leave us in the dust.
My day started early today driving my sidekick to get
Dunkin then to school. Then for me off
to my last orthodontist adjustment and now doing the count down of when these
cute little things off.
You are never too old to improve yourself or learn
something new. In fact, biblically speaking
we are called to take care of the vessels we are given to travel this world.
Just wish I had the means, ability and probably drive to
have done it sooner. But I do believe
everything happens when it supposed to, and everything happens for a
reason. Even if I stopped trying to
figure out the whys a long time ago.
Does not mean that all those things I put everything I
had into wishes, wants, dreams and many given days; doesn’t show on me some
days more than others. But it has
absolutely brought me closer to Jesus Christ and somehow grounded me in faith
and hope and all things possible and forward.
Not perfect not always answered how I prayed. But again, God has a purpose and I believe
deeply in the spiritual world and all the good and evil.
Nope does not matter if my beliefs are not aligning with
yours or yours aligning with mine. We
can disagree any day of the week and still get along.
Man, I mean really if we all thought the same, dressed
the same, looked the same that would be one heck of a boring bigger problematic
world to live in than we currently have.
Am I self-conscious? Heck yes! But then I have to laugh how people look up
to me at times and admire my independence which by far has nothing to do with strength.
I didn’t pick this life but I damn sure won’t turn my
back on any of my responsibilities or commitments. Never intentionally anyway. Never will I be a perfect parent, sibling,
grandmother, aunt, friend etc.….
But I will sure give it my best shot with no expectations.
Absolutely blessed and love all the connections God has allowed me near or far.
Every lesson and every misstep has led me on an awesome
learning experience even when I get wore down.
But hey that is just me and my mind maze pouring out the gratitude
for being able to get back up another day.
Not for the blessings of life form Christ Jesus!
Anyway, the thoughts I was pondering to share this morning
got worked away and will come out to life somewhere in the night. I really need to keep a note pad by my bed
stand again.
Or invest in a tablet or laptop. Being my former got shattered by kids. Yeah. Good times.
Could have replaced it sometime back but my priorities
are all over the place and I am cheap when it comes to investing in me.
Which I am learning to change.
But on that note the world is full of temporal
things. And even I eventually will be
just a memory somewhere so although I live comfortably, I believe we need to
purge the old and bring in the new. And
I just have not done that. I have stuff
sitting around with windows 95, XP, windows 8, 10 yeah… years of being in IT. Keeping my stuff up to date is always
last. Kind of like a mechanic or hairdresser
you always work on your own last.
Well today is here; yesterday is gone and tomorrow well
hopefully we all will have many more and even more, so we make them count without
expectation.
Shake off what’s not working and do an about face and try
something new. If it doesn’t work keep
trying until something does. Push forward
in love, hope and abundant faith for all that Gods promise offers.
