Anything can happen in this life, and it will mean something when you
truly believe and share your hopes, your light and all that is good leading the
way for those still drifting and unsure how to get there.
Man, what a powerful lyric “Sometimes I’m under starlit sky but feeling
more like dirt.” “So why do I still try
to prove I don’t deserve your time.”
Cause I Am Yours, and you are mine!!!
I can lead the way all day long until it comes to my own self following
the possibilities in feeling 24/7 that what I do matters and all that which
goes with it.
No does not mean I do not believe it; just means my human side takes
over for more often than the known courage and promises of God and how to react
or be in any specific situations. Be it
work, be it day to day, be it words or lack of or actions and response or lack
of. Or even that of too much of anything
above…
Most days are a world wind, being my own worse critic and purposed to
succeed and overachieve in my day to day always deep down knowing to reflect
the best I can be and pushing the boundaries just to stay accepted, needed, and
not replaced. Dealing with the many
critics or imposed perspectives of the many you cross paths within every part
of your day.
Be it how you say or ask something; be it how you walk, how you look,
how you ???
While all the while Jesus you are always and forever on our, on my
side! None of us really know what is
around the next corner although I try not to worry about the small stuff. Sometimes the small stuff of others takes
over the space and views of where we need to see up ahead. And when we realize what is there, we just
scramble far too much to people please, overachieve, get it done and move
on. Yet in this world we live nothing
is ever just that simple without leaving some sort of a mark along the way.
Where is the Joy not the 5 minutes of happiness any persona, place or
things will give us till we tire? But
where is the deep Joy if and when we are caught up in the wave pounding down
called life. Knowing once that wave
passes there will be another and for a brief moment of our time the calm seas
will allow us to swim like hell or breathe deep and rest until that next wave
of whatever is coming hits.
Peace ever after.
Romance where is my King I wish I could dance with in fits of love and
laughter.
Running on empty or full tank, none of it matters if we do not know who
we belong to or feel our purpose.
Why would we get up another day if we have no reason to get up for? Even when it makes no sense we keep fighting
forward and avoid at all costs getting caught up in pretend.
Or am I really just doing that as I get up and do it over and over
again?
Organized chaos and pure boredom any second of any day. Unleash all that you are and all you want
to be at the foot of the cross of God Almighty and ask for Jesus Christ to come
consume every bit good, bad, or indifferent.
How can I justify what is wrong or right? I cannot for you, but it won’t stop me from
sharing the fact to find all that is pure, all that is just, and all that Jesus
intended for us to have in our sights and let go of what we should not.
Find that soul that allows you to be evenly yoked where you live, you
laugh, and you love hard together and fighting forward in Him even harder.
Where your passions for life and each other never cost what either of
you cannot contribute to make happen and get by.
Say a prayer for you, yours, and all you have come to know. All that will come and go. This land needs less violence, less hate,
less abrupt cruelty projected into the atmosphere and across any means of
public awareness.
Yet that is one wave that I do not believe in my time I will be able to
out anything. The wars spiritually,
physically are all around us and although Christ already won the battle. We/I must put on my armor daily to just
make it through.
We all do what we think we must do to survive.
In the midst never forget to be grateful even for what we do not deserve
and are blessed.
Did you wake up today?
Do you have clothes on your back?
Have you eaten in the last 24 hours?
Do you have shelter over head?
Have you been blessed with what so many will never be able to answer
this day?
Even the pain has meaning. Be
grateful for even what you cannot grasp and believe in you, believe in all that
is good and believe in something that matters shining brightly and growing
lighting the way for you to go back through or lead the way for others.
Give praise and thanks and know you are worth so much that Jesus Christ
gave his life so you could have one of your own!
Do not get held down no matter where you feel beaten. Get back up and know He is always there
waiting to be with you every step of the way.
Thank you, Father God says a kid, who was tossed away by a man I thought was my father and later at
age 50 to learn he was never my father at all; yet never knowing the man who
should have been. I learned how true we
paint images we want people to believe yet we are so truly different on the
inside than what the book cover shows.
To that man that represented our nation, represented authority,
represented, and advocated for children who spawned children all over the
states he lived. Including my own
being. Jesus thank you for allowing
me to come to know you as my real father long before the human side of this
flesh-eating world came to be.
Thank you for all the storms, waves, and demons you have pulled me
from. Mind, body, and spirit.
Bring the truth and light to this dark and what most think as hidden
secretive world. Shine bright for us
Jesus. Not just me but ever soul I ever
connect.
Thank you for this day, these thoughts, and everything in-between.
