John 10:28-30 (TLB)

28 I give them eternal life and they shall never perish. No one shall snatch them away from me, 29 for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else, so no one can kidnap them from me. 30 I and the Father are one.”

John 10:28-30 (MSG)

25-30 Jesus answered, “I told you, but you don’t believe. Everything I have done has been authorized by my Father, actions that speak louder than words. You don’t believe because you’re not my sheep. My sheep recognize my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give them real and eternal life. They are protected from the Destroyer for good. No one can steal them from out of my hand. The Father who put them under my care is so much greater than the Destroyer and Thief. No one could ever get them away from him. I and the Father are one heart and mind.”

Thinking Out Loud – Journal Thoughts/Prayers / Mind Maze Overflow

Just like the beauty of the fallen rose withered and browning lying on the ground.   Life’s wonderment of what was once and where it all went slowing and fading away.

From dust the world is created and in dust it will return.

May we never stop seeing the beauty of all that was and realign what we chase for all that could be.

 

Giving back to the earth we came, even just one grain at a time.  Through life and leading by good examples or by work and harvest to put back so much that continues to be taken.

Death, destruction and all the messes of those who have turned off the switch to care what next.    But only to rape, pillage and destroy any harmony and good that is meant to be.

 

Innocence and the laughter of our souls stifled with the day-to-day organized chaos.   Some forgetting to breathe into the blessings while others giving more than they should.

If we are lucky enough to look up and open our eyes, open our hearts, and hear the truth.  We are blessed eternally throughout the cosmos.

What is it you are after?

What is it you are fulfilled by?

 

How it hurts when we believe in others, and they become vial towards anything we are.   We seek just to be balanced, to be loved, to help stand tall and be and do our best.   While many like a fish that has been hooked, we find ourselves writhing and trying to free ourselves from the clutch of what will consume and destroy the very light we carry.

God knows!

Without a doubt only God knows.    So, what is it that we will choose to be, to do with the outcome?

Do we payback or do we shake it off get back up and stride forward acknowledge the blessings of the lessons learned trying to keep grow forward?

 

As this world waits for the miracles, maybe even you and me… doing what we do and waiting for our turn.      Forgetting God is already here; He is with us through his son Jesus.

Even in the shadows we cannot hide.

We can choose to not acknowledge all that will be.   We can turn the switch off and think we are hiding in the darkness that we release.    Or we may even turn up the volume trying to find that perfect harmony.   Shining in our own minds eye.

When in truth without a relationship not religion.  But without a deep spiritual relationship with Jesus Christ no matter what we know about God we will never be truly blessed for more than those seconds of feel-good moments.

I know what has been good physically in this life.  Just as I know what has almost killed me.   The scars did not define me but give more courage to dare to be different and want something better to not be like anyone else.

For a long time, we spin not even realizing what we are doing.   But then the day we are given in truth and light; like a brick that has been suffocating us slowly is removed and the peace of God flows through our veins like never before.    Unexplainable, uncontainable.   Pouring out, while pouring in.

Be careful who you confide, be careful who you open up to.  For not every soul that walks by your side daily is there for your greater good.

There will be many that thrive on what they can take from you piece by piece.

The foolish games they think you do not know they wish to play; even if somewhere deep inside you wish it were something more than just another plight or mission they were on.

No matter when or where your heart gets broken.   Just knows the pieces of you, the pieces of me can still make a beautiful display of so much more than just the breaking that you have taken part.

Love people for who they are.  Good, bad or indifferent and yes, it is so very hard to look past what is right in front of us many times.

The choices are their own.    Stay clear of harms way and run as fast as you can when they become the vampires that leach on and give nothing back.   

There is never a reason to hate although there will always be to recover and keep doing better, and most times heal for something that just did not fit right and left scars.

Hope now as in the only kindness and truth is what eternally matters.

Be thankful for all the lessons and seventy times more for the blessings.

Had I never knew the depths of pain I would have never been able to meet you Jesus.  Even though I was raised up with Irish Catholic family and always knew about a God that on Sundays was talked about and we were to tell the man behind the curtain our sins and do ten Hail Mary’s and not repeat it but go in faith and know we would be okay.

 

It was not until my adult life that looking back into the fishbowl and all the hurts and bad things that happened to so many at the hands who did not learn to walk with you Jesus.     Well beyond anything that I will never understand.    I am thankful that I finally heard you.

My story unraveling before my very eyes and learning who I really am even through the hurt and anger I once carried.

Through and in all the past jokes of finding that forever in a man to joking they are only good for when they are needed for something useful and keeping them on a shelf until that time comes.   Then we dust them off and hopefully they will do what you call out for.  There strength and physical being of something as a female I will never fully have.

Oh, even the bumper stickers I am what society made me.     In all the lies, all the hurts and bad choices bundling everything about humanity into one big this is how I deal with it.    Taking on I need no one as I can do it myself.

 

It was not until I learned how much I needed you Jesus that I learned the differences and that not everyone although bleeding out the same are the same in their choices and persona’s.

Rescuing me from myself and beyond loved physically, mentally, and most importantly eternally.  

That withered flower petals blowing in the wind washing over and through the scents of our favorite fragrance.    So is the love over the years with and in you Christ.   That you have allowed me to learn true adoration and growth from souls who reflect and love you first.

Imperfectly placed throughout this journey reaching down with the spiritual light and hand bringing at times more pleasure and relief through sounds, images and truth because their blessing and needs of you.

 

Though I may faulter may I never consume anyone I am given?

Though I may not ever shine as bright in anything I do as I should.   May I always reflect you within Jesus?

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not promised.   May I never lose heart or strength to keep trying to grow forward. 

Be it here and now or on the other side,  may no matter how alone our days feel may all I am, all I am connected hold true to all you are Jesus and know we are never on our own.
