Romans
8:32 (NLV) New Life Version
32 God did not keep His own Son for Himself but gave
Him for us all. Then with His Son, will He not give us all things?
Romans
8:32 (KJV) King James Version
8 Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness
in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto
the God of my life.
Romans
8:32 (MSG) The Message Version
31-39 So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how
can we lose? If God didn’t hesitate to put everything on the line for us,
embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own
Son, is there anything else he wouldn’t gladly and freely do for us? And who
would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God’s chosen? Who would dare
even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for
us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you
think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ’s love
for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger,
not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst
sins listed in Scripture:

Prayers (Thinking out
loud)
Life is those moments that capture your heart filled with
those people that make your soul smile.
I am blessed with both no matter what else in this world does or does
not… I have been blessed.
Some of greatest achievements cannot be counted by awards on
a shelf collecting dust. They are the
moments and beauty within for those you truly have no control over when your soul
shines just by watching, hearing, and being around the light they shine. Or the pull out of you and you shine brighter
than any other and cannot explain why.
That is the blessing of God and his unconditional love
without expectation, love without agenda.
Giving oneself with no intent of ever receiving or to those who will
never deserve it.
Ugly is what we allow to come out of us and cannot let go;
and before we know it cannot control it and everything and anything it its way
is a target to feel the pain we carry.
Let it go and set yourself free no matter how dark it
is. Call on God and his promise sealed
in blood.
Why he did what He had to do is that you think you do not get
to choose, when His love clearly a gift for me and you. He did what he did and did not have to. Sacrificing from the very start. Yet who here and now even gives a single
moment much less life for those who need help to find the freedom, in love, in
peace in truth~
Raising beauty from ashes, graves to gardens we sing about screaming,
jumping in praise. When will we truly
let him show us how to work things out?
It does not matter where you come from it matters where you
direct your steps in life and where you will end up. I have known many that came with the silver
spoon that fed them later to use it only to inject death because they could not
cope. Or those that came from nothing
and are the biggest heroes and fighters for those who do not have a voice or a
way to fight their way out.
Judgement is not mine to give. I have run with the best and the worse, and
in the world’s terms the most ugly and those who were so beautiful outside but
the poison that spewed as they opened their souls through their mouth could not
even come close to what half of what the world is full of.
Love people for who they are not what they do. But common sense will tell you if we are consuming
and staying under the influence those you once knew and loved are no more. Treatment and the fight of their own bones,
their own souls has to transpire for themselves. If they do not you have to let, go and love
them from the distance and truly if you are a son or daughter of Christ Jesus. You are no exception. In fact, those who walk with the Lord are hit
harder than those who only know what dirty feels like as they live in Satan’s
sandbox.
We fight forward, but the constant battles are beyond
real. For those we care deeply. And evenly when we tire for even the whispers
we hear in our ears.
Life full force into the deep of hurt, joy, rippled effects
of what was, what is and all the desire if only it could be. So why do we not cling tighter to Jesus Christ
who is never changing.
Why is it we push we pull, we twist and turn. Yet we never really hold tight and allow
faith to lead us?
When we give it to the father, and not take even portion
sliver, or chunk back thinking we need to make things happen in our time. Well, we create our own chaos to spin in.
I am a pro at that. Then
the twists and turns I take that ride on leave me falling short in doubt, and self-criticism
and giving up, letting go.
Speaking things to life that should never even be
thought. And cutting myself off from
all that is waiting. Truth is truth a
lie is a lie and no matter how many tell the lie does not make it true.
Right is right, wrong is wrong. You can live your life all day long as I
life mine. In the end do you really
want to meet Jesus as your judgement entering the gates or do you want to know
him now and celebrate when you are with him side by side at the gates.
If I am wrong, well then, I preserved pieces of me I never
gave away to the world or any if the world could take. I lived with peace, pure heart, and clear conscious
and clean hands. Living with value does
not make me any better or worse. But purity
of intentions, in spirit, in physical being and all that we give away just to
feel love of the pretender. Anyway, it
has been a long weekend that is now coming to an end…
Jumping up and running from housework cleaning up after others
to helping for hours out in the extreme heat cutting dead trees away and learning
how to work a chainsaw and even how to take it apart and put it back
together. Then serving the one who
allows me life. Visiting family and
remembering just how blessed we are. Taking
the moments and burying them deep inside so no one when everything else goes
can take them away.
Life is what it is until it is not and none of us are getting
out of here alive.
Just be a good human.
Be your best self to not be that person whose troubles and choices bleed
out cutting everyone else in the way.
Because all it does is slowly take those who love you away.
Prayerfully I hope you find your way to wash away all that
burdens and takes life from you seconds given. Find that river and get washed clean and
really get to know who Jesus is. Not just
to know about; really know him deep in your bones, spirit, and soul…
