Ephesians 4:15 (NIV)  @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM

15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.

Ephesians 4:15 (MSG)  @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM

14-16 No prolonged infancies among us, please. We’ll not tolerate babes in the woods, small children who are easy prey for predators. God wants us to grow up, to know the whole truth and tell it in love—like Christ in everything. We take our lead from Christ, who is the source of everything we do. He keeps us in step with each other. His very breath and blood flow through us, nourishing us so that we will grow up healthy in God, robust in love.

 “When some basic need is lacking—time, energy, money—Consider yourself blessed.”

James 1:2-3  Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.

2Corinthians 12:9 NASB    And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.”  Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weakness, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.

 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

Pretty intense Father for anyone that has not been diving in to think that when we are in need for anything we should consider ourselves blessed.    For those so entangled in the world and stuck unable to see a light of any kind.   It is pure suffering, pain and almost as if they/we can never make it to the other side of whatever it is.

 

Yet for those who keep diving deeper for meaning, purpose and something better than whatever is in flight.   We know that when we turn all we are lacking, into purpose to give you all our pain, all our sorrows, all our inabilities and anything that has us spinning and wanting to just make it stop. Prayerfully,   We turn to you.  

 Those who found you never let go fighting every breath of the way to hold on to all you are and pray at times until we feel bled out for those we love and wish to see at peace.    We break even when we are held so closely to you Jesus.   

 Yet we cry out all we love all we desire that all we connect find you right where they are and understand they/we are never alone.

Healing is so desperately needed here and now.  For me and all I am aware and beyond that which I will never see, taste, or touch. 

 

Heal us Father!  Show us; show all I am how to get there.   Reveal in me and all I am connected how to heal; how to be that better place not leaving it for all the others that are too busy to even acknowledge you.

We are so quick to condemn, condone as long as we feel better about who we are right where we are.    Yet there is so much more.  So much more for our children and the harm that lurks around every corner of darkness trying to consume us.

May we fly high in your promises with moral ability making that compass part of who we are each moment allowed up.

So many including myself ready to find the flaws of everything around us.   The damage and scars are prevalent we/I never need to point them out.   Unless the message is something to plant the seed of hope.   We all fall short of what you created us to be Jesus. 

Yes, without your sacrifice humanity may have never fully understood the freedoms of choice and will.    Even when we still choose selfishness.

If only we knew how to find our way quickly to the well of life, peace and promise of so many tomorrows even when we have to crawl with our last breath to get there.

To know to do our very best in all we do and if it is not good enough it never was going to be anyway.    No matter how much we try to make our minds and those around us believe it will.

Not bad, not good just not what should be.    All the while we find our way to what is and should be.

Pour into me and every day you give me Jesus.

Thank you for another day, moment and even now month gone by.    May my travels reflect back out that which grows peace and harmony.   Beauty beyond the minds eye with every lasting peace from and with you.

As any days I am given despite my plans hold me tighter than ever before.    Guard, protect and love more deeply all I am connected.   Reflect the real them, with the real you Jesus.

 

May suffering never be in vain, may purpose driven everything have all that is good, all that is pure and all that allows the children of the universe opportunity to be so much better than those that came before ever could be.

Not for what they do, not for what they end up having.   But deeply in the souls of their very beings to make this world a better place for good because it is yours and not our own mission.

 

Twisted turned around fragmented thoughts and words.   Leading all I am connected in strength, passion, compassion, life and ever after light full of the peace and hope only you may bring.

Thank you, Jesus, for all you have allowed me to grow through.   Set us on fire; as I want more of you and I want everyone I will ever connect or connected to feel you now.

 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

“It doesn’t matter how many Sundays you sit in church or if you think you are saved.  God sees what you do and how you treat people.  That is what really matters.” Author unknown

 

To love ourselves and really understand selflessly what that means as we learn to grow forward in who we were meant to be.   Not just for accolades of others or  temporal people, places, and things.      Is to really grasp on what it means to treat others how you would want them to treat you.

Not that 15-minutes of fame, hour of pleasure or 3-minute rush as we inject what is available in the world to get us through.

Even when we know there will be somethings that we are starving for, yet no matter how we try nothing here and now will ever take away the eternal hunger.

Like that temporary pain of having the braces readjusted to be something more beautiful and permanent.   All that we are, all that we do all that we want to have meaning in lasting ever after.   How we achieve it and who we achieve it with matters.

 

Never forget where you have been but live for the future.   Let it go; Let it hurt; Let it heal!    Jesus has already taken every stripe, every pain, every sin and only asks for you to believe in the goodness of God.   To live for today!     Stop trying to hold onto what fits in the rearview mirror.    Yesterday is gone.   If tomorrow is repeating itself; make the changes you need to you; to grow more bold, more beautiful than ever before.

In love, in gratitude in life you are given.    Own your choices, direct your steps, and know you are never and have never been alone.   The very same being of all things that allow us life and air in our lungs is waiting for you to acknowledge Him with thanksgiving and abundant gratitude for the grand things and the miniscule.    

Most importantly, there is nothing you have done, he does not know about.

 

I personally cling to the Father, with all that I have been, been through He alone is the only thing that could be the reason for me beyond survival.        I don’t expect anyone I know to understand any of that.   Not unless they themselves have invited Jesus in an also know what it means to have the living spirit within you.

 

We all believe in something.   Be it that drug we swallow will make it all better.   That relationship will be forever.  That talent and fame will fill us up.    When in the end it just makes us trapped and prisoners of our own created fate.    

 

We are all blessed even in the worse situations.   What we do with it; how we do it and when we do it is the balance, we all must learn to achieve.

 

I personally for some time now choose to lean on Jesus and all that he was, is, will be or said to have ever been or will be.

 

It brings peace even when it hurts and nothing, I can do can ever change that.

We feel things, those gut instincts, those moments of spiritually oneness, awareness.

Those needs that are filled by just that one deep breath thinking in our moments.

Those moments that seem to fade or be replaced.   Those moments that Jesus never let’s go of, takes away or demands anything but our real you, real me 24/7.

 

Time is fleeting and no matter our plight; whatever we do, make it count for eternity.  Not just building an empire that might outlast the shack down the street but will absolutely come to demise.     Build your moments for eternal ever after.

It does not matter who is in your hood, who is in your posse, who you think is got your back and will keep your secrets.    All of it has a cost and that cost may be something you can never pay.  

Putting a band aid on things you want to go away.   Only covers what festers under the covering until your release sets it free to heal for the better.

We all step right when we should go left; say what we should not.  Do what we should have waited.

Leave it at the foot of the cross and call upon the one who can lead you through it all.

Protect the blessings of life you were given and protect what is left of any worldly future.

Be that one!

Philippians 2:5-8  (NIV)  @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Who, being in very nature[a] God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing

    by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
    being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,

    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death—
        even death on a cross!

 

 (@Jesus Calling 365 Devotions with Real-Life Stories @Sarah Young)

 “Trust Me to supply what you need when you need it.”

Lamentations 3:22-26  Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.  They are new ever morning; great is your faithfulness, I say to myself.  “The Lord is my portion; therefore, I will wait for him.”  The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.

Proverbs 16:9    In his heart  man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.

Psalm 34:8 NKJV    Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in Him!

“Don’t Let the Ugly in others kill the beauty in you.” Author unknown

 

Wow that could have so many different doors that lead to and through, meanings, interpretations, or perspectives.    How true it can be that one little thing of an action, lack of, words, looks, body movement, or just the existence of another that sometimes we have our Psyche tweaked and all of sudden we are walking around with that chip on a shoulder, or just something not sitting right with just that one spirit that walks by us.

 

It does not matter if it is a friend, loved one, family member or perfect stranger.

Somehow, sometimes we are just a vessel, that conduit that picks up on something.     We could be perfectly faithful, loving, kind to everyone one we meet.  And sometimes there is just that one soul, that one spirit that absolutely just cannot stand anything we are, anything we do.  No explanation why; just that we all have a story, and our legacy and blood lines transmit whatever the spirits within us never put to rest or sought out to have peace for.

Many can read us and play off our giving, kind souls; while others become the victim and even more walk around not wanting to feel and become this machine where they do what they do and refuse to care what the impacts are to those caught up.    While even others thrive by being connected to someone else’s spirit and get sucked in to doing what they do not want to but do not know how to do for themselves.

Crazy thoughts, crazier truths behind so many in the world all twisted in knots and suffering.  

I know even me far from perfect, yet the perfect people pleaser so it seems at times this kindness gene I acquired somewhere down the line.   Thankfully so if I allowed all that has occurred in my past to define my future.   I would not like or care for anything or anyone.

 

We all must own our choices, when we do great things and those, we do it for do not appreciate, acknowledge, or use what has been given for the blessings of helping them grow forward.   We choose how to react.    Good bad or indifferent will never make the choice of the person we were hoping greater things for.

Each one of us owns what comes next.     So, we may end up with shards of collateral damage form choices our parent make or do not make; our friends make; that one makes or doesn’t.

 

We get to choose what we will work towards next, or we let ourselves be duck-tapped in that mental trap and never go anywhere but repeating the same miserable cycles of I can’t and all that it brings with it along the way.  

One thing I CANNOT stand is when there is not just cause, not true blockers legally or life and death that are true reasons why someone cannot do something, be something, for themselves and act upon it with moral purpose and value.

 

Just because we mess up yesterday does not mean God has not offered you the do over when tomorrow comes.     Never to be easy or free; anything worth while takes work and dedication and gratitude.

Every second of every moment we are given.

 

It gets tiring and wears me down to see so many beautiful, loved ones; talented souls stuck in the spin of yesterday and unable to recognize they are made in the most beautiful, talented, gifted image of God ever.

Instead, all the worry about is what they achieve temporal things for from recognition of the beauty they were given on the outside.   All for empty words, or gifts that fade.

 

When we meet Jesus and allow Him in; he teaches us how to truly find ourselves and the meaning and ability of life in peace, love, and a harmony only Christ followers can explain.

Growing forward with no agenda friends and loving them for them and not what they can give or take.   Well, I cannot begin to tell you when you absolutely love someone and who they are everything else is bonus.

 

I know, everyone wants something right.   What about those who just want the world to be that brighter, better place.    Out reaching and being the hands and feet of Jesus and all his intent for going to that cross and the moments leading up to it.

 

Hard to imagine without needing some magnificent Sci-Fi episode exposing the ulterior motives or supernatural powers that fill this world.

I only know that God is real!

Jesus is Real and alive and will come back for all of us at some point.     None of us can predict accurately when that will be.

Sure, we can predict, say, imagine, or whatever else you want to make it.  And yeah, it makes great tabloid headlines in the world of sex, drugs, scandal, and death of our rocking rollers.

 

One thing is for sure.   That universal truth that was written centuries ago and still alive today is none of it matters.      What matters is what is it deep inside that  you believe in your heart and soul?

 

That one you loved deeply and flows through your veins and sometimes still comes in the dreams you once had.    That may be worldly forever; but Jesus and eternal life is something non-human can truly grasp and fathom the abilities of truth, justice, no more suffering or pain.  No more hate.

 

Yet, we know at the exit we will go right or left and that eternally will matter for the tournament or release beyond/beyond will ever lasting be.

 

Yeah, we can just continue to live and do what we do when we do it here and now and just reserve to the fact when the vessel we are given is taken away.   That  is, it;   But do not forget your soul that will live on.         Karma goes full circle just remember that.   Even if we never get a chance to see it in our here and now.    We will in the end.

 

Choose life!

Choose to meet Jesus and learn who God the Father is right here where you are.

 

If you cannot; that is your choice.   But be your best self here and now to Speak Life for others to have a chance to know the difference and life and choose for themselves.

 

Thank you, Lord, for this day and all this you allow to pour out.

John 17:20-23  “My prayer is not for them alone.  I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.  May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.  I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”

 

Isaiah 40:29-31    He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.  Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their  strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.

I hope your dancing in the sky wherever you are on that other side of the rainbows.   Miss you always and just the thought to talk to you again brings tears streaming down like the broken flood gates releasing Lake Erie.    From slip n slide parties in the sky to just dancing on streets on gold with no more suffering, no more pain, no more addictions, no more hateful misconstrued issues with people here and now.

 

I know you are waiting for those that are on their way and I am not sure if that hurts worse than the days, we found out you made it and we were still left behind. 

 

No matter what I pray and hope you will forever dance in the sky.  That you will send your angels to show us how to never stop dancing, stop laughing, stop loving the life we have been given here and now.

 

I pray we cling to the knowledge and dreams we are truly made in the image of God. 

We have so much more to do, to experience, to share if we are given one more day here and now.    So much to hope for all the tomorrow’s we may receive.

 

How easy we can cling to what was and forget to keep climbing up to what can be.      May we all still here and now always remember  and come to know who the King of Kings really is and learn the peace of what it means to reach for heaven every second of every breath allowed.

Riding those waves of blue oyster cult on that steal horse and feeling the passion and blood pumping through the bodies we are given.  Knowing today is not the end but no matter we are it is just the beginning.

Knowing this may we find you Jesus and prevent one second, twenty-three minutes or eternity in hell.   Despite how we find ourselves waking up, may we feel you Jesus and the hope, the motivation, the need to keep growing forward and getting back up no matter where we landed last.

Heal all that we do to ourselves, heal all that has been done to us.    Like the sun and moon and all its brightness.     As each star you placed in the universe God.   May Jesus fill all your children and lead them through your kingdom for your purposed mercy and grace.

Washed by the water and find our way down to that river of eternal life of ever after.

Be it real, be it just our imagination.  May you fill us with all that is pure, all that is compassionate, all that is for the good and kindness to all we come to be with, in, nearby.

Thank you for this day and the never-ending mind maze swirling of almost, absolutes and hope deep in you.

Thank you for the life given.
