when you Pray

when you pray, you must be ready for the answer… when you pray “Lord, use me as You see fit. For Your Will.”, you need to be ready for what comes… when you pray, ” Lord, let all that is hidden be made known.”, you better be ready for what is revealed and the timing of each step of the reveal…

what we forget is that as the answer flows, we still have God… no matter how ugly, terrifying, life changing and heart breaking His answer is… when you pray, add to your prayer “Lord, and whatever may come, I pray that You shield me/us under Your wings. I ask that You guide us on how to react, on how to respond. I ask that You guide us towards healing. Helping us lower our egos, our pride, ourselves. Lifting You. Shielded by You. Healed.”

In Jesus’s name, Amen

…agendas and The Word

It bothers me when I see the fight against equality… Specifically equality in regards to the LGBTQ Community… For the most part, the fight against stems from this thought of protecting Christian values… Truth is that it is a fight stemming from an individual’s own views/issues with the homosexuality, transgender etc… If one was truly concerned with protecting Christian values then all of the following would be punishable with fines and/or jail time: adultery, gossiping, coveting, hating another human, taking God’s name in vain… I am a Christian… I am tired of seeing God’s word twisted and/or used to support one’s own agenda… There are two primary “jobs” we have as Christians: bring the beautiful news of Christ to the world and to love one another… Somewhere along the way, that message got lost and condemnation of others took hold as the job of a Christian… We judge and we do not share the beautiful words of God… We pick one verse out of thousands upon thousands to support an agenda when every single word is vital and connected to one another… God is deeper and more, well He is simply MORE than what is in black and white and written in one verse… His word is what should be protected (although He needs no protection, we need HIS protection) AND what should be shared…

once upon a time…

Once upon a time media such as Times Magazine and The New York Times were viable options for teens writing term papers… Not anymore… For articles, “journalists” do not leave their desks… They have resorted to the comment sections of social media for “facts” and a couple of phone call interviews of preselected, biased individuals as “eye witnesses”…

…a simple unrequited resolution

i want to matter… to have worth… worth that is real and not simply spoken… worth… caught in the crossfires of your stupidity, mistaken identity and a plea of “it is me”, a realization from you… inspiring change… change in you and changes in others… not simply words spoken… i want to live where i matter and where i am loved… loved in actions and not simply in words

an unrequited resolution…

…limited sight

Most only think and form views within a limited span of time… 100 years forward and 300 years backwards… Truth is that it, injustice, is not a racial problem stemming from the white man towards the black man… It is not Christian vs Muslim vs Hindu vs Buddhist et al… It is not male vs female… Rather it stems from greed, hate or misguided faith… Or all three… Humans have battled for thousands of years… Tables turning as if locked in a dance of rituals… If your sight is limited, the dance will never change… The leading partner simply flips only to be flipped back within a few generations… For change to come in this world, be of good value as well as root itself within its people, we must have better vision… See and understand our entire history while thinking many generations ahead… Understanding instead of blaming… Loving, truly loving, instead of hating… Seeking wisdom instead of knowledge

a change of heart and mind

We are all sheep to something. Each of us. The question is: “Who is your S(s)hephard?”

I deleted the original… Not because I think there’s no truth to the video I posted… Not that I think the entirety of the video is truth… Just something about posting any thoughts, no matter the lean of the content, does not sit well with me… So maybe what I am saying, mostly to myself, my Shepherd is The Lord… What happens in this world I have very little control over… My shepherd will not be the manic media, conspiracy theories, social media, fear, a human, an animal, gossip, anything of the like… My Shepherd will be The One Who created the stars… My energy out put I want to be that of love and light, short of the “Down the Rabbit Hole” section (which is simply about my life with mental illness, a tender heart, full of self doubt…my personal journey) which may seem like a rollercoaster ride of sorts
