⁴ Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord is a rock for all ages.

Isaiah 26:4  The Message Bible

Stretch the Borders of Life

26 ^1-6 At that time, this song will be sung in the country of Judah:
We have a strong city, Salvation City, built and fortified with salvation.

Throw wide the gates so good and true people can enter.
People with their minds set on you, you keep completely whole,
Steady on their feet, because they keep at it and don’t quit.

Depend on God and keep at it because in the Lord God you have a sure thing.
Those who lived high and mighty he knocked off their high horse.

He used the city built on the hill as fill for the marshes.
All the exploited and outcast peoples build their lives on the reclaimed land.

Unspoken- Lift My Life Up

 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

Thank you for another day you allow me up.   Sometimes stumbling, tripping over my own feet seeking my bearings as the fog clears from the nights sleep.  Others jumping up and running like there is a fire I need to run from.    All the time a blessing with so many opportunities within the day given to challenge, learn, be and grow.

Thank you, Father, for many will not get back up today.   Many who we thought were fixed, healed, on the mend are still down for the count.   Others are giving up and fighting the darkness not calling upon you.  Then others who walk closely with you are being called home.

No matter what the circumstance for me I am blessed to dare to b different, to dare to keep on fighting forward being productive and useful.   Filling the days with meaningful activities filled with hope in you and in those dark moments brighter greater things to come.

No matter what be it the city, the mountains, the valley’s, the fully aware or darkness and unknown.   You Jesus are the God of all I am.    Maker of heaven and earth; with one wave of a hand or one exhale just as you breathed life from dust the world and earth could be changed if you choose.

Yet from early on when no matter who was the one who chose to take from the tree of knowledge good and evil.  Instead of destroying all that was created you gave freedom of choice, will and all that goes with the results of what we say, do or do not do.

Yet your chosen are tapped into to light it up and open the doors and windows of hope and your promises by lighting up who we are from the inside out.    The greater things are still on the horizon.    Each day you allow us back up.   May we follow all you are and will be may we shine bright through IT all.   In your arms and you deep within our souls for all that is bold, beautiful and life forming.

Thank you for the strength yesterday as I wait in line and one of the many who tried to recently take advantage and get me to have hundreds of dollars’ worth of work not needed to my vehicle done stood next to me in line.   Guarding my heart and mouth not blasting out how I went and got a second opinion, and it was found to be a farse.   How no one ever gave me what was so called needed in writing or called back with the actual estimate that they were trying to get me to do on the spot.

Blessed to not be born yesterday and although gullible for many things absolutely not foolish enough to look past the hustle of the world and the panic that many dance around doing their hustle.    Blessed to be able to stand there and actually pray for the one and many they are attached that are doing what they do.   Your great power and purpose for all things Jesus.  Never ceases to amaze me.  Even when I have met my capacity load of garbage.

Thank you for not allowing me to be a fool and act like lunatic now that they were placed in front of me.   Your will be done… Not my own.   In time all things in the darkness will be exposed to your great light.

As so much exposure of violence, darkness leaving tortured souls and beings to wander the earth.     If only everyone of us could get up and praise you Jesus first and always.

Finding where  we are, finding where we need to be and just knowing your presence Jesus.

If all the things that have happened to each and everyone of us is what really makes us we would all just evaporate from the heat and hate that we feel from all the hurt life sometimes endures.

Yet You God alone fill us up with truth, purpose and the knowledge of what pain really means through your son Jesus.   You allow us to know how loved we are and how to love.   If only we choose.

I imagine the ability to love from the outside in as you fill us up from the inside out.   Like that volcanic eruption where there is never ending heat, desire to love and want more of everything just for all that is good.   Feeding off our spirits experiencing something far more than what that pill of ecstasy or flesh craving desire will ever give.   

Freeing the mind, body and all that weighs us down it is you Jesus and all you send to explode into endless harmony and finding a way as we purpose to start the change within.  Starting with me and prayerfully knowing the leading by example is all for the good of any next steps little hands, feet and eyes who are watching will absorb.

I am holding to the promises of you Jesus that fill me with great peace in the here and now, although times sometimes take my breath away in not such good or memorable ways. 

Yet no matter what once I get back up, brush off and catch my breath I know beyond deserving just how blessed we are/ I am no matter if just given another day or a battle to purpose and fight forward through.

All the while learning how to talk directly to you and not rage and rant towards all who selfishly take advantage, harm, or purpose anything without regard of life of all involved.

Lord you lift my life up every day I am allowed to roll over and open these fading green eyes.   No matter how much is out of focus or unknown you alone are what carries me.   Thank you

 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

If only we could rush into eternity and take all those photos like we spend our time on here and now and come back and show the world on all the social media, the beauty that awaits.

If only all of the love, and beauty so many souls of this world hold deep within release the never-ending unity in love, peace, and deep real joy.   Filled with laughter and wants to always be ready to help a neighbor without any worry of who was going to hurt or do worse by just being in the same area of another.

One giant theme park filled with the rush of everyone trying to get to the next ride and laughing and speaking nothing but all that brings great joy to anyone who will listen.

Yet, the rush of fools we are unworthy of your greatness; Jesus forever we spin here and now chasing all that will soon vanish; sitting on the edge thinking how we got here if we are lucky.     Wondering if we can reverse the tests of time and heal all that we allowed to chip away and break.

Feeling the heaviness of what and who was; that suddenly one day was not that same promise being fulfilled.    As we try to resolve things seeking forgiveness if you are living within.    Or just walking around all puffed up like all that is hidden in the darkness will never be found. 

Then one day the floods break through, and everything is washed away, and we realize all that we did, said, or took from those who genuinely cared for us with no expectations cannot be reached as the bridge of life was washed away leaving us on those islands surrounded by the lies, doubt, regret, anger, hate even.    

Lord thank you for allowing me to run to you and pour into this vessel each day I am given and told to get back up.  Thank you although sometimes I do not always forget if ever; you allow me to find your faithfulness and truth in so much peace by diving into all that you are.

So many broken pieces in humanity with the storms all around us spiritually, physically.    Yet you still bless those who faithfully call upon you.

Even in death something beautiful can grow.

Through all the elements we have to fight forward.   It is and always has been so easy to just do what is wrong, so easy to quit.  May we/May I never go down without swinging Jesus.     More importantly may it be you that are swinging with me in my corner, guiding my steps, my thoughts, my words and absolutely protecting this heart from the darkness that can consume every soul wandering this planet.

When we call upon you; you are not on the way.  You are already here! 

Have you lived enough life yet to realize your worth and to whom you belong?

That is not arrogance, that is truth in Christ Jesus.    Digging in, looking around, hearing, seeing, even yourself doing.   What script are you reading off?  Who are you trying to find your fame in life through and for?

Don’t you know the truth?  Is truth relevant for you or is it only relevant for the time and place and moments each second, you are when and where you are?

 

Even when we make our decisions, it makes no better than anyone; and promising to never walk away is almost impossible as we are human, and we still mess up over and over.  In words, deeds… It is what it is.   We must die daily to ourselves and all those hurts, habits, and abundant hang-ups.     We all got them.  Be it walls built so high to never really trust or let anyone in because we gravitate to those who will give reasons not to.    Or even being trapped in the poor me broken pieces that can be put back and painted out in something far more beautiful when we pick up your cross Jesus and our moral compass and call, demand, walk, run, or fight forward to seeking your abundant mercy and grace.   That will always fill us with eternal love and unspoken peace.

 

Through your pain, and blood that poured out so we would have a life that flows freely where we can be and do anything we put our minds toward.    Good, bad, indifferent.   I will never understand how or why there can be so much promise in the here and now all the while darkness is right around the corner ready to devour all that is good and worthy of you in a matter of seconds.    Be it at the hands of others, our own beings and spirits lost and misguided, or the nature of what this world and elements are made up.

 

Jesus may you always be my strong tower and never let me stop seeing your light shining brightly to run, walk, crawl towards.   More than ever may I reflect even the slightest flicker for you so that all I am connected seek out your promises your will and your truth.

May I never forget if it had not been for the darkness, I would have never been blessed to find your light.    May we never get so twisted up that we lose our way to find you.

Jesus be with the four children who lost their mother Michelle to covid. They will be going through dark times and need your angels to surround them with guidance, love, and leadership into the distance.

Traveling mercies Jesus for me, and all who dare to step out and go somewhere.  May you always be the pilot of our physical vessels and any transportation you allow us. 

In this world that everyone is so ready to condemn or condone and not just give it all to you and strive for what is good and will allow growth.  

May the drugs be no more.

May the illness be overcome.

May the healing be abundant.

May courage in and with you set the world on fire in planting wisdom and taking back what seems we must have to all the things we can do in and with you.

It is so very hard Jesus.  I know I cannot do this life without you.  I am broken and make messes or allow messes to be made all the time.    Be my glue and cleanup all that is in me to reflect the abilities, truth and promise of your glory first and always.

Send your angel armies now to all your chosen and all the connections you have granted then, now and going forward.

May your garden reap in prosperity of all that God is.

For everything that God touches will become for His good.   May we scream at the top of our souls to call you within our every being Jesus.    Even if we do not see what we pray for now.  May our hearts and souls never be silent for the want and need of who you are.

 

May we realize our true joy for life is within the depths of our souls and never dependent on our circumstances.    May we stop being consumed in the misery loves company ride of life.  May we not ignore that is wrong, but may we give it all to you and stop the chanting and passing of what belongs to you alone and those involved.      Does that mean shut down social media, does that mean live in bubbles.  Does that mean purifying each one of us like that coal being turned into diamonds.   Whatever your will may be Jesus.  Just come wash through this land and allow all you are to heal and wash this hateful land into the meadows and lagoons deep into the beginning of peace, love, and everlasting eternal YOU!

Though I may seem like a dreamer.   It would not be the first time I have been accused.   I know I can only control me and even then, sometimes I forget.    Be with me Jesus here and now every second you allow me, and all the opportunities given.  Be with all I am responsible; all I am connected and anything that will come.

Habakkuk 3:17-19 (Jesus Calling 365 Devotions with Real-Life Stories @ Sarah Young)

Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior.  The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, enables me to go on the heights.

 

1 Chronicles 16:27 (Jesus Calling 365 Devotions with Real-Life Stories @ Sarah Young)

Splendor and majesty are before  him; strength and joy in his dwelling place.

 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

We all believe in something be it spiritual or that which sits next to us on any given day.  Prayerfully everyone will come to know the Lord in hope and light and not just at judgement day.      We all get to choose.     Even in the battle there is a hymn playing loudly that allows our hearts to beat.     Sometimes those beats are what love flows and pours into us out of us for others.    All the time the same Lord who called upon his son Jesus to give everything for a humanity that may never call upon him to give life no  matter what the result.

I choose life, I choose the light I choose if I have to chase the song and all that allow my heart to be deep in my soul.   I choose to hold every single ounce of those you have allowed to fill me.

 

Freedom as we fight to get over the walls onto the next and the next and the next.

Yesterday like the shadow demons pulling us back sometimes blocking us completely.   Tomorrow screaming what are you nuts; why do you not live today.

No matter what was, what will be will always be what is.

Like the gremlins that take over in all things do we run, do we fight do we give it to the same who gives us every breath we exhale?

My freedom even in that which is done, taken, or just so painfully wanted is in Jesus.

Never years would I have believed I would openly think such out loud. 

But like that woman at the well feeling so empty it was Jesus who fills me up and never takes, never leaves, and only wants the real me.     No questions asked, no condemnation or judgement for what I can or cannot do.   In fact, when I fall, He has never left me buffering the landing or preventing the fall all together.

Nope it does not stop me from walking into the fires of the world and trusting and believing what others I guess catch and release for their own personal gains.   

No different from those unsaved lost and lonely seeking love and believing that forever promise giving pieces of themselves away and either becoming something someone tries to control or just runs off like some high-school movie they gossip of the misdeeds they have done to another.

All those judged for what they have or what they do not; later to prove the world wrong that judgment meant nothing making their own ways with us without the scars used as stair steps.

 As the floods wash through what will be the thoughts that pass through your mind.   Not that who has hurt your or left you broken.  But prayerfully that purpose to fight for life unknown but yet to come.

Digging deep Christ in me will always be that which flows and fills the ability to even get back up.      He never abandons, or ever reflects cruel intentions.     Wanting abundance of all that is good, all that is light all that is love.   Creator or all the beauty even that which is off in the distance covered by the morning mist and dew falling.   Colors brighter, bolder, filled with more than life itself.    He conquers the grave as life as we know it before we know changes knowing where we have been but unable to just pinpoint that one moment, we were no longer what people think they can see.     May the world see Christ in Me.   Right, wrong, happy, sad, perfect in every way, or going through it perfectly placed.    I would never want anything different to ever be.

There is no way to describe being in love yet not really loved by what the world dictates or says.   

Never alone even in those moments desires and dreams take over and wants burn even when, even then.    The depths of all creation and ever after, through out all time.    I will never let go fighting for the need of God’s eternity.

We all need something to not be controlled, dictated, or constantly judged while chasing life as we know it.     We all bend believing and wanting while thinking.    Then one day sometimes sooner sometimes later.   What we, Who we believe in were just not as we thought it would, should be.   Many won’t let go they just add to it building the deceptions and lies, others quit, all have been invited to take that leap of faith on Gods ultimate Jesus’ ride.

Even as the earth spins, shakes or trembles.  Even  as the world and humanity has gone mad and confuses religion with the relationship in Jesus itself.   There is no blurred lines when the truth reveals the real heaven and hell.

Whatever may come Jesus Come!

Until then never stop reminding me how to just keep trying fighting forward and knowing the truth in you allowing me to feel you when at times life is so hard to not feel anything good at all.

 Daily Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (Thinking out loud)

To be loved and love so deeply you never need to ever see as the world sees.   Just one deep breath and all that was is no more.   All that will be is beyond forever and more.

Hold my hand, taking that stand needing to differentiate who is or was a good woman or man.

Blinded by the static so loud in this world; leadership has dwindled while finding our way up the path doing ones best to super glue that hope and faith all the while the world shaking so badly most days all we get is that leftover bad taste.

Fakes, frauds, fighters and the cursed.   Where are we now in this erupting earth?  Hacking an establishment for the greater good; hacking a church and those who serve.  Taking from the same souls that would give you everything in person and teaching you how to make it and where to go for help.    There has to be a special place in hell for those who do their best to take from what serves God’s kingdom.    A special judgement for taking from the same hand that feeds you with all they are, as you bite it off.     A special place of judgment to remove the rotten fruit that spoils the opportunities and growth for so many in need just because of laziness or its easy or just plain greed.

God, you know all things.    Light it up with swift justice no matter what the cries of pleads.   The world is growing darker.    Light it up father and wash all the dirty clean!!!

 

Take me back to the foot of the cross reminding us all what it is, you know that true cost that true worth.

Doesn’t matter; yesterday is gone, tomorrow never promised.   So where is your promise land?

 

What are you chasing what is it that you are loyal to or what is the burning secrets that your standing on the edge looking up and out of the depths?

There is never a moment that God has not made it clear or real or right at your fingertips.  All you need do is cry out and allow Jesus in.

Extra, not enough.   What in the world are we doing, what are we thinking of?     Are you thinking of me, I am always thinking of you?    Thinking too much that is just something I do as I fight forward and try to find my way through the thorns in this gardens path of life.   Although so many have left me bleeding it’s amazing, I have not totally washed away or just blocked and hid all the world out.

What I did, what will I do.    Only God knows as most days I am barely breathing so consumed needing to hold on, needing to let go.   None of it matters as the world is a temporal show.   Colors slowly fading out.    Sometimes lost outside the lines yet fighting so hard for what we believe.      Yet screaming so loud crying out not realizing we all bleed red.  God waiting for all of us to be washed white as snow.  Here we are picking ourselves up barely moving unless its to point the flaws that are so prominent about.   

Be careful what you wish for, be careful what you judge as God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit truly are the ones far enough above who judge in love.  You, me no one is exempt; we will answer in life or death.   We will be judged that is a sure bet.

I can lay out all my misdeeds or fears and misfortune at the choices of all I am connected have made or I myself will make.   But in the end, nothing else matters if you cannot light it up.   AS once the darkness comes there will be few and far in between to grow anything much less any worldly love.

Only God can light our way.  There is nothing anyone can write, act, sing or say.   Without Jesus we know not the Father and Creator of all things.

Hope in Christ is all I have.   Sure, all the hard work and the millions of hours learning, creating, being, doing that can help but where does it get me.   Relying on those who they themselves are fighting for whatever they believe in or are chasing.   Jesus is, was, always will be.   So, pick your poison in the here and now and own the steps you are taking into eternity.

Guilty of not reading His red letters often enough, just pushing that button to hurry through running off to the chatter not even some days good down to earth meaningful God anchoring talk.

So often falling short and although so much better to not point out others; still crushed when let down personally leaving me in harms way; leaving me a weeping mess not sure what to do next.

Needing Jesus as my super glue and all the mercy, grace and salvation gifted as none of us deserve a thing.   Yet we think at times we are everything, all that and more.   Yet here we are standing on the edge with one little breeze, word, or brush from anyone.   Leaving us gone again forgetting what, why as we just get loud forgetting what humanity was saved in the first place.     An absolute heart issue with the ability to tag and label it to fit whatever the loudest voices, or those with the most power or money in society decides they should stir up and in the pot.

Without enough individuals to stand for what is right in and for the future of our country and humanity in general. Killing off innocence.

 

What happened to just teach children what it means to have moral values, respect and well you get it... Not what we want, think we need or jump on the bandwagon to be part of in the majority or even fit our own selfish ambitions.

So crazy how this world is spinning, and it takes all of us to choose to grow forward and just love people for who they are not what they do. Anyway... So very true how religion, Christianity, and what is right and what is wrong is so messed up.    More and more we lose, just by what others do.   Lose precious time trying to recover, trying to understand, trying to be something that in the end will never be seen.    

Why can’t we be loved and grow as God intended.  What is wrong with this universe?  What is wrong with me how sometimes through all the everyday blessings I still am cursed.    Jesus has taken the pain away.  I may bend, I may break, I may sway.   But in the end, I will rise up for all the truth shouts loudly and for now I am only to do my best, left to pray.

 

Jesus fill me up again.    You carried me out of the woods, out of the desert, out of the fires.  Show us, show me how to never let go.  I need you more than anything will every really be understood.     Living water wash through all that I am wash through all that I will, I have ever connected.   All that you are Father God.    Pour life into all of us, redemption, healing, and shining bright for all remaining days this soul is allow to fly.   Love me from the outside in as you have filled me from the inside.   Show me, show us how to pour out for you.
