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

If we all only had faith and hope in Jesus to rise up as Lazarus!

We can replace money, we can replace people, we can replace things.   We cannot replace the time we are given that only goes one direction.

We may be able to fix broken things or put Band-Aids on it with all the things we chase or do to numb what we don’t want to feel.  But we will never get time if we do not adjust our priorities every day we are given.

That does not mean make one fire drill more important than others.  That does not mean go prove something to others in this world to give a reflection you think they care to see.   And maybe they do care but, in most cases, it’s just hurry up and wait and then in the line like movie beetle juice and they arrive and are in line to learn their destiny its just one big Next.

All that we thought was important all that time we gave away without building the one relationship with Jesus Christ and not just learning or becoming a speck in some church building or group to say we ar righteous.     

A true relationship that we stop talk and listen daily diving in to biblical knowledge written centuries ago.

We will never be perfect, yet we chase perfection.   We will never be sinless, yet we are ready to point out other misdoings.

Many in this world are not right in their minds or spirit, while many are.

Where do you see your faith focused on?

Are you worried what others think?

Do you laugh and mock those who really do believe in God the Father?   Of course, you won’t answer yes to that.  But when you discard his Son Jesus Christ you discard the truths of the Lord of all things. 

No where does it say by walking with the Holy Spirit will we be untouchable, or the addict not have hard days struggling with the addiction.  Or the kindhearted being taken advantage of.   Or the sick not understand how it could be them when they have always been what they thought as good.

But the Prince of Peace, the sweetest soul King of kings and Lord of Lords will give you courage, strength, and abundant love and peace to never go through any of it alone.

As a child I was always trying to get away.

As a teen I was always trying to mask the pain of what I could not understand and even try to stop the pain of life by leaving.

As a young adult I chased love and subjecting my very being in some very hard painful lessons.

As a parent I chased doing the right thing and giving my children everything, I never had.   That was the biggest lesson of all.   As we cannot buy love or teach character.

We are not what we have done, we are not what has or has not happened to or for us.

Along the way we choose what next.   We all have gifts and talents to bring light to this world.  Some with lasting families, some with broken pieces that fit and make new family photos along the way.

We are all unique and positioned where we should be.    All at the edge of the crossroad any day we are allowed up in perfect health and well-being or in shambles.   We all get to choose!

Some, many will never know anything but the wars they are raised up to be soldiers in.  All of us get to choose.

 

Just as in the book of Job what we lay all that we are in faith.  No matter what is taken; In Christ we are and have everything even when the world turns its back on us and we lose everything.

More importantly what about eternity?  Ecclesiastes 3:11(TLB) 11 Everything is appropriate in its own time. But though God has planted eternity in the hearts of men, even so, many cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.

As I work through this Bible study I am leading with other ladies “Stuck” by Jennie Allen and learning what it biblical gives us when we go through what stuck means, or when feeling broken, or mad, or discontent, or scared ,or overwhelmed, or sad,  and how refocusing on the truth in relation with Jesus sets us free.

 

2 lived, suffered, died, and rose up for eternal relationships with us.

 

 2 Corinthians 4:18 (The Message version)

16-18 So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times; the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever.

2 Corinthians 4:18 in all English translations

 

 

I by far am no scholar nor theologian.  Just a soul who has history and a story like every other being on this universe.    Some good, some bad, some really funny others really confusing.   But I am here again one more day no matter what ailments physically, emotionally I may be challenged with this day or any other.    No matter because of my own doing or at the hands of others whom I got close enough to know and tried to love.

Everything happens for a reason.  Our time is short don’t waste your life trying to fix what didn’t work.  Change it.  Don’t give up because of what others did or did not do to or for you.

You want 210% trust be the light of the world but igniting the one true flame of life here and ever after.

We are dust in the wind, be it when we go back into the ground or allow our dust to be ashes to be carried around or spread in places, we found peace during the days we walked this earth.

Be love for yourself and your soul to the very depth.   Meet Jesus where you are.   Pick up your moral compass.   Find podcasts, devotionals, a good bible-based church, and people that love and believe in all Jesus is.

That does not mean showing up once a week to church.  Or that when you do find a small group it will solve your woe’s.     Put your faith, your foundation, and any future back to the one that owns all you are in the first place.    Everything we have here and now is on loan.    No matter what we believe, publicly declare, or fight through for others to understand.    Make Jesus a part of your daily declarations in thanks and gratitude for the ability to get back up.   For all that is yet to come and all that He has carried you through even with missing pieces by the time you arrived at the other side.

Meet him and know His story and the pain he suffered to bring life to us.  Gain his strength and courage and get back up while you still can.

 

Thank you, Lord, for allowing me another day and the ability to pour out of this mind maze.

Though I may be fading more days than others I know to whom I belong and where I will be on the other side of this universe.    Be it a stubbed toe, a financial burden, a devastating illness taking loved ones.  A hurt by others we care for and their habits they just cannot let go of.   The list goes on and on.   I have nothing to prove to anyone but to the one who allows me life every day given.

May my weariness never fall out to harm and misguided deeds or words to others.

May the strength and healing you have given me through life bless every connection in and through you I am given.

Though this crazy mind maze can find a glimpse into funny movies or real romance in the stones of life.    The movies and all who play out the parts in real life.   Forever I am grateful to be allowed to know you love me and all you have created beyond anything we can ever think hurts here and now.      All that you have been, all that you have done.    I have to prove nothing but be real and remain authentic with you.

As it does not matter for those things hidden in our secret places as you know all of us inside out.    Without judgement  of the world and condemnation though it is real.   You love us for who we are in you.

Thank you.

Even though the harmonies are beyond any song I dare to harmonize with you Jesus will always be the beat of this heart.   Thank you for allowing my soul to dance here and now and grow with excitement and anticipation of what dancing in the streets of gold in new life and so many colors and souls in freedom of the butterfly  and all that is beautiful.   Thank you!
