Out Loud – Journal Thoughts/Prayers / Mind Maze Overflow
What a blessed and busy week it has been. Summer Blast VBS with some amazing kids. Lots of stress early on due to
miscommunication or no communication and panic of taking my gigs too seriously.
Thankfully even though day to day remains me head doesn’t feel
like it will explode off my shoulders because of flying by the seat of my pants
and just being expected to turn off all I know to be.
Like I said last writing I am just too passionate about who
and what I commit to.
All in all; at the end of the day, I didn’t lose any
sleep. Just really stressful moments at
times while away.
Everything we have
Everything we do
Including the air in our lungs. Belongs to God (I AM) Jesus Christ!
Actually, I generally don’t lose sleep over work or volunteer
gigs. People yes especially when they
are going through it or have taken me through it. But not related to trying to fulfill spaces
and places with requests of anything I know or do.
My theory if it is not good enough; it never was meant to
be.
People though on the other hand when you let them in close
enough to really care. Well that sucks
when they hurt or cause hurt.
I cannot imagine the pain and anguish Jesus went through .
I guess part of what keeps me holding on to hope. Knowing all that we read about that Christ
went through just so that we humans could have life. Reminds me no matter what we are dealing
with. We are not alone and the
unfortunate circumstances he went through so much more; but never stopped
loving us. Nor did he walk away saying not
my problem let them deal with what they create. Instead, he just keep reaffirming Gods will
in obedience.
Dying to self is not easy or clear cut. Yet here he died for billions that will
never ever know him.
I cannot imagine the heart of Jesus. I can only ask and hope he allows me to learn
and live with a glimpse of who he intended me to be. Seeing with his eyes, loving with
While today may be my Friday for work even though its
Thursday. My stuff! Never shuts down. When I take time from one, I move t something
else. Either by necessity or freedom of will do so. Actually, always by the blessing of freedom
of will. Being without it on purpose or accident
without freedom of will choose we would be and do nothing.
Some days things fly by without even a glitch or glimpse of any
negativity. Where you sit down at the end of the day and have to look around to
see if you are really awake.
Cause let’s face it the world has so much going on in and around
our lives that there is always something that pokes or sticks in us and leaves a
heaviness of sorts.
Not necessarily negative sometimes filled with angst of what,
who, where or why. Sometimes it can be
heavy if we are running on empty and our feelings are driving us. Others it could just be we have been filled
with so much doubt and beat down through out life that we don’t have the
self-esteem needed. When something we
don’t understand creeps in or floods before we can catch our breath and acknowledge
that. Well, it instantly can flip us upside
down and keep us spinning.
One thing is for sure.
We need not people please. The
only one we need to be driving to pleasing is the will of God. With
appreciation and obedience of the life we have been given at all.
Nope I have not always thought that way. In my youth I was a reactor. Feared nothing and had nothing to live for
and fought to get ahead. Right, wrong,
or indifferent. I learned in my adult
life the difference. kinda like @Toby
Mac’s #Speak Life “Stop trying to make everybody happy you aren’t chocolate” And for as many times as we allow ourselves
to be chewed up and spit out left to feel like nothing putting all we are into
people, places, and things.
Just as easily we
could learn who Jesus created us to be.
And give appreciation for every single moment in time the blessings
within given!
Life is crazy we can
allow the stigmatism to paralyze us from growing forward or we can fight
forward with our brothers and sisters blood or not. We
need not fight against them in anything we need to fight with them.
Relationships even within our own split personalities be it
truly some genetic thing or that which we pretend in the light and who we really
are in the dark.
God knows all of it and we have to purpose to be our best
selves no matter what that freedom of will we are driving towards.
Anyway, busy day with multiple conversations. Planning,
resourcing, contributing to, adding unnecessarily.
Life is what we make it.
If you got back up today make it count and help others to grow forward around,
you.
