Isaiah
55:8-9 MSG
8-11 “I don’t think the way you think.
The way
you work isn’t the way I work.”
God’s Decree.
“For as the sky soars high above earth,
so the
way I work surpasses the way you work,
and the
way I think is beyond the way you think.
Just as rain and snow descend from the skies
and
don’t go back until they’ve watered the earth,
Doing their work of making things grow and blossom,
producing
seed for farmers and food for the hungry,
So will the words that come out of my mouth
not come
back empty-handed.
They’ll do the work I sent them to do,
they’ll
complete the assignment I gave them.

Thinking Out Loud – Journal Thoughts/Prayers / Mind Maze Overflow
The broken prayers to each
day you are given are just baby steps of you making the choice and just getting
started. If He the God of all Gods,
Lord of Lord, Christ Jesus has given his life to flow into the dust to come
back alive within us. It is never too
late until you cannot get back up again!
Nothing you have done or will
do cannot be forgiven and you given new life.
Yes, sin is sin and we all have it, done it, live in it. And yes, perhaps your dirt is really grimy
and hard to get off and the road to Egypt is so difficult you feel you cannot.
You are right. Alone you cannot. Sure, you can let this world manage you and
all that you think you are. But to live
you must surely die to self and life within the realm of Jesus within you.
Burying ourselves to not feel
or getting so busy to forget. Yes, it
helps I know I am an authority. I hate feeling when it comes to those heart
strings that get all knotted up. But
then although I do not know I remember back to Christ on the Cross and my feeble
miniscule, little mind imagines how horrible He had it for those who would
never know him. Yet he did it anyway.
So why can’t I keep going.
Why can’t we all keep growing
forward.
Choices
It is all about the choices
we choose to make. Sometimes we just
make them and do not think, and they bite.
Others we just do not care and do it.
Absorbing the impacts or
leaving the impacts.
This world is so full of that
these days. And I am sure I too am on
the list even if I never purpose towards any opportunity that finds itself
coming to life.
You cannot see it if you do
not believe it period!
I often say if you put my
resume along side me running day to day the convoluted confusing mess would
surprise you.
I am not what I do. No one is; no matter how hard we try to
prove what we do what we have is who we think we are worthy to pretend to be. Allowing the world to manage us and judge us
according to whatever the standards are at that time. And we already know that what was last minute
is either changed or cancelled and no more.
Much less any history that continually repeats itself badly.
I so wonder why good things
never continually repeat, spawning positive growth over and over???
The life cycle of broken
prayers or so we think when we do not truly have a relationship with our
maker. I spent years believing in God and just to be part
of something was always out and about.
In the end nothing matters without hope and belief. More importantly without a true relationship with
God and the only way to be so is really being in relationship with Jesus
Christ.
We all get there in our own
time and choices. Or not! Depending on the choice we make every second
of every day we are given.
Stop lying to your children,
stop lying to yourself and own it. Whatever
it is at the time you are in.
I sat last night in my kids’
zone and trying to get one of our more unruly boys that comes and hangs out on
Wednesday night just to be respectful of everyone around him and more so to sit
and let others enjoy what they were learning and not just think we can do what
we want and will be rewarded because someone said they promised it.
Don’t get me wrong our kids
need love. But you cannot do whatever
you want or not do what you are requested.
But still be rewarded. No
matter who said what. At some point in life,
you will have a huge price to pay. I get how tired we can get and battling sometimes with a middle school
age kid can be draining because they do not have that switch to tell them stop. But seriously when you plow over littles to play
and say oh sorry it was an accident. Or
even when you get in continual disruptive trouble. Even bragging that you were in trouble
because you disrupted an active shooter drill at school.
Oh my gosh…. PLEASE parents God
loves us all and we should love everyone for who they are and not what they
do. But to grow and be a successful
contribution to the human race or future of this already messed up world. Keep it real and teach respect, logic and
basic responsibilities.
Stop talking out both sides
of your mouth. Making a show in public
and not following through or letting things go until the next episode. Sets your child up to be then next person in
the news because they cannot handle reality.
Okay that rant is over, but
it is real. We ignore the signs we
rush our kids to grow up because we are too damn busy with things that never
give us long term joy. And we leave our
responsibilities for others to be scuffed up by when the abrasions of bad
choices happen.
Mine, yours, and everyone is
washed over by the wave that is flowing.
Life is what it is until it
is not. We see it on the news, we live
it day to day.
Burning up in what does not matter,
matters! Someone once shared with me
they were burning up in a luxury furnace.
They had it all at their fingertips but was missing life.
That unfortunately is so heartbreaking
when we cannot find life and lose it before its too late. It’s sad we suffer at the hands of demons
but to truly lose so many of God’s angel army is riveting.
I do not believe anyone in
this world will ever have all the answers.
But we all can certainly spread love, peace and harmony and respect and
remain accountable never letting go of that moral compass and help others shine
even when we do not feel the light within.
For those who read through
this mind maze. Blessings and prayers
for all that is good.
Keep getting back up and be
the goodness in the moments you are given.
Know who you are in the creation of Gods realm and shine bright lighting
the path.
Keep in pray for good of all
things and all people. None of us are
promised tomorrow and any of us could be put in harms way or the biggest blessed
moments of our lives at any time.
Our world is changing,
cycling just as it did centuries before.
We can joke and say survival of the fittest. But truly what are you doing to contribute
and deserve anything more or less than the person standing next to you.
No don’t lay down become a
doormat, become silent. But when you
raise your voices raise them in love and sound the tones and tunes that the
heaven’s open up welcoming us all for.
My mind maze, my thoughts in
prayer, in love for eternity!
Thank you, Jesus, for
allowing me !!!!
May God be with you in healing, comfort, protection and direction.
