Prayers (Thinking out
loud)
Do you ever just
feel that your life could be the theme to that background classical old black
and white movie where no one talks but everything is just taking place in front
of you and you just don’t know what is coming next. Then all of a sudden like old princess Disney
movie things fall into place. Maybe
even those old cartoons for those who have been around awhile with Tom &
Jerry and Tweedy bird.
Something or
someone always up to no good on the chase.
I guess as I come
out here each day and turn the music on seeking inspiration and triggers not
only to the words that may pour out but just for how my day will start and go
as well.
Music has always taken
me away during the good, the bad and the OMG what is that moments.
Yes, I can easily
go from some Bob Segar to CCR to Hillsong, to Lauren Daigle to Hauser and round
and round. I think as long as I can
understand the words, and it is not leaving something to the imagination and
broadcasting foul mouthed garbage or even yes, the artist themselves is not
offensive in morality then I listen.
Far from perfect
and flawed so others can point out in the world full of judgement. I do my best to not judge although
somethings as like when my kids were growing up, I would count to three and
remind them if they didn’t get that rap song out of my stereo it would fly out
a window. I did not want them to have
it in the first place. Laughing now
they would run as fast as they could while I would be headed for the stereo and
grab it and put it up. Yes, there were
times they were not fast enough. And yes,
this was even far before I walked the walk with Jesus Christ.
Morality is
fleeting for a long time. No regard
for humanity, no regard for our own beings at times. To shelter our children from the world to a
degree is necessary but they have to know how to make the right choices and
they have to know how to be accountable when they mess up.
We have to own the
good, the bad and the unknown we are stuck in…
We all are walking
through a fire, some of us thrive in the drama, the unknown or the turmoil that
brings life out of those around us. Some
of us just hope and pray we can make it trough to the other side without many scars;
but some quit and go down for the count and no matter how often they cry out to
make it better to get back up. They just
do not have faith in themselves to make
it happen and let go.
Thoughts all these
thoughts.
How often do we
lose ourselves and come unhinged diving into the depths of numbing actions just
so we do not feel as we try to sound convincing as we fight to convince ourselves
we got this angry at the world and angry shutting those we love down faster
than we blink when they try to give direction or assistance. There is more to life than just wanting temporal
happiness.
What we do to
believe in those and all they say and do to become fulfilled. All we do running into the darkness or fighting
our way in the light.
I/we are so in need
of a savior each day we are allowed back up.
I cannot do this life on my own without Jesus. For all that I am, was, will be depends on
the very breath he alone has sacrificed so I could just try and exhale one more
time.
Prayerfully this
world and all that comes to be knows His love, mercy, and grace.
Cursed are those
who pretend and play with in the blood of Jesus. For everything in the dark always comes boldly
into the light.
Whatever it is
whatever we say or do; we need to fight forward and never let any negative rent
negative in our head space. I know I am
so done with so much always piling up. At
that point of so tired hearing just the static of what is not truth yet so loud
trying to convince us. All the while I
just want to throw that match over my shoulder and walk away into the new day
while it all burns down behind me.
Mind, body, spirit
on fire. We all get to choose. Every single thing we let in to feed any part
of us matters. I cannot eat cupcakes
all day and sit on my rear and complain about not being in shape if I am not purposeful in getting up and move or even watch what I
let in. Be it visually, audibly, or
physical consumption.
How we make our
next move is the freedom of choice and will that the blessings of Jesus Christ
gives. If only we were perfect to make
it now in great impact for all that is good all the time. The closest I can do is make it towards
Christ first and foremost and do the best I can with what comes next. WE ALL are children of God be it we
acknowledge him or Christ Jesus or not.
Thing is we cannot ask for help and expectations of gaining any blessing
when we only believe during problems.
We have to surrender
every day to the one is and always will be.
No matter what is or is to come.
I fight you ever
step of the way with that spiritual tug of war.
Giving it all to you and pulling it back thinking I have a way to make
it sooner, better, right, bigger. Lord
may I surrender all I am in everything to you every moment you allow me up.
