Hebrews 11:6 (NIV) @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM
6 And without faith it is impossible to please God,
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he
rewards those who earnestly seek him.
Hebrews 11:6 (MSG) @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM
By an act of faith, Enoch skipped death completely. “They
looked all over and couldn’t find him because God had taken him.” We know on
the basis of reliable testimony that before he was taken “he pleased God.” It’s
impossible to please God apart from faith. And why? Because anyone who wants to
approach God must believe both that he exists and that he cares enough to respond to those who
seek him.

“Thus, you are freed to let My Spirit direct
your steps, enabling you to walk along the Path of Peace.”
Luke 12:25-26 “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour
to his life? Since you cannot do this
very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?”
Jude v.v.24-25 To him who is able to keep you from falling
and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great
joy-to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power, and authority, through
Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
Luke 1:79 To shine on those living in darkness and in
the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.

Prayers (Thinking out loud)
When we
realize that God only wants our attention and sometimes all those long
unnecessary trials could have given us so much more peace during the storms
that will come anyway in this thing called life.
When all we have to do is really believe in
Him and get to personally know His son Christ Jesus. It is not about the church
building or big fancy anything or even the endless rush of words that so many
are good in spewing out.
Although
surrounding up with the body of believers in all that is good, all that is
pure, all that gives life and does it's best to never take from. It is about
the personal relationship each one of us make every day we are allowed back up.
It is what we do with the freedom of choice
and will that God blessed every soul with. It is knowing who you really belong
to. Cast your judgment, your mission your anything not to all that is temporal
of this world. Find your way to what is eternal.
Yes, you
will come to the fork in the road here and now or at the gates of eternity. I
chose a while ago to stop adding to the smoke that choke life out even when I
stumble daily to shine. But never will I go down with a white banner of
surrender to not fight the good fight even if it means just getting back up
each day putting one foot in front of the other.
Life is what
it is until it’s not. Smile keep them wondering even if it hurts. There will
always be someone finding your faults, trying to make you join the misery they
don't want to face alone. When all they need to do is set their minds on
better, brighter, moral values of the life they were given. When it gets heavy,
and you have nowhere to turn because so much has you delusional that you cannot
or there is not.
Laugh and show them exactly what the freedom
of life and choice you have been given and the new day of opportunities you
have been given will be for you.
Remembering
all that glitters is not necessarily gold; it could the broken shards of glass
of all those that went before you.
So, what if
you are at your wits end? If you have tried everything else and nothing is
filling that void, taking that pain, that hunger, that need away. Why have you
not circled up and called upon the name of Jesus every moment you are allowed
back up?
If I am
wrong, well then, I am just another crazy soul that has much peace through all
life throws at me. But I am not at least for me.
I will never
force anything on anyone. Even if! Even when. However. We all must own our
blessings and if we choose to drown them out with hate, anger, constant worldly
trials. We get what we put into it.
There is
peace in believing in the greater good. For me I believe in Christ Jesus and
have oh so many stories where I should not be; that he has called upon me to share
here and now. Hope and the blessing belong to you to allow in. I choose what
has been written and unchanged since the beginning of time even when I cannot
see it, hold it, or sometimes justify it.
I choose
life eternal. What about you?
Find yourself those no agenda friends that you need not be
anything but yourself to be connected.
Find those who love and
believe in the creator of all things and seek shining even the smallest flicker
of hope and light for the days given.
Tap in and learn for
yourself, find a bible-based church, find small group bible studies.
Find those who want to
live never looking down on those that do not meet your worldly standards.
If someone is lacking; in love reflect what, and how they can
grow.
Stop talking
about all that others are doing wrong and start praying for healing, and growth. Someone is always watching; so, as you
are out there making noise to reflect what everyone else not meeting your
standards is doing. Just know, they
see your flaws and imperfections as well.
Most likely they love something of you and stick around because of it.
Sure, they
possibly love the fact of picking up the wind of the wings they are riding on
your coat tails, like the possibilities of fame, fortune, nice material
things. Maybe they even love you
for you and not what you do. My
question is do you love you for you enough to stand for something even if you
stand alone? Maybe in all that we think
we need. It is just the simple acknowledgement
of knowing we deserve nothing of this world, and we give thanks to the one who
allows us to be every second of any day.
What if?
What if we
watch the darkness flee by one simple choice to believe, hold on, fight forward
for all that is good. Like the bold
colors of a rainbow or wild meadow bloomed to perfection. What if the sweet essence of life we
breathe in is that of our dream come to life?
What if we
let go of what we doubt and grasp all the possibilities that what we are is who
God intended. What we do is our
choice. What has meaning is not what we
can take from others but that which we can give!
What happens
next when you let go of selfishness in the sense of all you must have to be
happy in a world that is nothing but a vapor in the wind. Filled with rhythms and high notes that like
the sound of static silence deafens our very growth and possibilities to be as
God intended.
Love, life
ever after is more than the sacrifice of today. More than you are laying there bleeding out
from what you thought was or could have been.
Know to whom
you belong and nothing in this world of here and now will allow you to know
when your time has come, and it will be time to choose. Know that if you never do here and now, if
you have never acknowledged the one true God and the prince of peace. The choices will be made for you. If you deny Jesus while you can choose; you
will never be free from the demons that torment you now, as they will torment
your soul throughout eternity.
Life is what
we put into it and sometimes not!
Life is what
it is until we change it!
Life is what
it is until it is not!
Love has no
boundaries if you love them; LOVE THEM!
Let it go,
letting it heal all through the hurt and scars that will always be a part of
the lessons you have made it through.
Have you
learned to grasp hope beyond and through all that chases us? I work
at it every day trying to calm the storms that arise I fail daily. But because of He who is greater than all
things that lives within me. I am
blessed to get back up and give thanks even when I can or cannot! Even when I wish, I pray, I hope and cannot
reach or see it. He is with us when we
choose to allow Him in.
Thank you,
Jesus, for the days given and any that are to come. May your love, your light, your hope lift
all I am connected higher than they have ever known, and may they know who they
are in you. Finding peace, knowing
hope in you and all that gives life and shines bright.
The intensity
of what is the peace in the depths of hell.
Your love, your light know and hold no boundaries Jesus. Even when we build our own.
May we find
our true spiritual self through and with you alone. Lead me and all I am connected in the harmonies
you wish to transpire.
Teach all I
am connected how to stop making excuses, stop being a victim, stop playing in Satan’s
sandbox thinking we got this. There
is not an in between; unlike right or left, north or south. There is only truth in light or repercussions
of darkness.
Even Satan knows who you are God. May humanity and those I am connected
understand and choose your truth. When
they do not; may we love them for who they are anyway and not what they
do. Even if; even when…
May we see
you know Jesus?
May you come
heal this land?
One soul at
a time; here-now!
ROMANS 12:1-2 (NIV) @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM
12 Therefore,
I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your
bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true
and proper worship. 2 Do not
conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what
God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
ROMANS 12:1-2 (MSG) @BIBLEGATEWAY.COM
Place Your Life Before God
12 1-2 So here’s what I want you to do,
God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating,
going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering.
Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t
become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even
thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside
out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it.
Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of
immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in
you.
