The Quiet One

The Quiet One.

He is there.

He is here.

He is everywhere.

Walking quietly alongside you.

Happy to be your sidekick as you journey through your day. Journey through your days. Your good days. Your bad days. Worrisome days. Joyful days. Confusing days.

All days.

Bet you didn’t know that YOU have a sidekick, huh! How wonderful is that😃. All you have to do is open up, your heart, your thoughts, questions, rations, doubts, moments of grief.

Ask for guidance. While he walks alongside you.

He reads you like the beautiful book that you are. Page by page. Word for word. He simply asks you to re-read YOU. Improve your story. Improve your life in better and more complete service. To you. To others.

He asks you to ask yourself, “What has happened in these days?” As your sidekick Jesus walks quietly alongside you he asks you to re-interpret your thoughts, words and actions in different ways—in the light of God (pf)

In the light of God.

Not in the darkness of defeat of our own fears. The fears we allow to direct and guide our days sometimes and allow the fears to explode our good hearts and minds into a confusing path of counter productive words, deeds, and actions.

He walks alongside us and asks us to re-read. Our days. Ourselves. our disappointments, hopes. And rewrite our story in the light of positivity. Walk the walk with Him.

To be a Discipline Disciple. 😃 To follow better. Train ourselves to think better, kinder, gentler. Of selves. Of others. Think about how better the world could be😳😃☺️.

Discipline ourselves. Discipline ourselves like disciples of God for betterment. Sometimes we become lost in the face of the events of our lives. Sincerely day by day faced with our struggle to understand. (pf) Dauntingly looking for answers.

Why did this happen? What did that happen?.. If I only did this, it wouldn’t have occurred. Doubt-filled messages we re-play over and over in our minds. He wants us for us to stop this thinking. Asks us to stop this thinking.

He takes us quietly by the hand and directs our thoughts. Sometimes we do not always listen to Him and we fail in our struggle. Our struggles to understand.

No worries. He understands. He does not judge. He simply walks alongside you providing the strength you need to see your life through different eyes. His eyes. No only our own.

The story of Jesus walking alongside two disciples tells us the story of his offering of his goodness and light. Bright light. To see matters differently. Lost opportunity. Trials of family life. Concern for others. His grace and guidances continually tells us:

Every fall is a step forward.

Take His wisdom and run with it. Shout it from the rooftops. Take the time and space for Jesus to guide you😃. Your steps.

He has endless ways of teaching us. All we have to do is listen. His grace is beyond measure. He never gives up. He has new ways to lift us up every day.

Wounded by His truth?

Yes. He is the teacher of all teachers. Dedicate yourself to betterment. With maturity comes responsibility.

No more—“He made me do it”, “She made me do it” Re-write the tiring old script of that nonsense.

Through dedication to duties we show devotion to the ones we love. To respond is to answer. Be accountable for your words, deeds and actions. Sometimes, as humans, an unwitting acknowledgement of this immaturity commonly continues into adulthood.

As a leader, break this cycle. There is no end to the good you can do if you don’t care who gets credit for it.(wjb)

For the sake of us all here are some good manners to help us hone our personal responsibility:

Never break an engagement when one is made, whether if a business or social nature. if you are compelled to do so, make an immediate apology either by note or in person.

Be punctual as to time, precise as to payment, honest and thoughtful in all your transactions, whether with rich or poor.

Never look over the shoulder of one who is reading, or intrude yourself into a conversation in which you are not invited or expected to take part.

Tell the truth at all times and in all places. It is better to have a reputation for truthfulness than one for wit, wisdom, or brilliancy.

Avoid making personal comments regarding a person’s dress, manners or habits. Be sure you are right in these respects, and you will find your have quite enough to attend to.

Always be thoughtful regarding the comfort and pleasure of others. Give the best seat in the room to a lady, an aged person, or an invalid.

Ask no questions about the affairs of your friend unless he wants your advice. Then he will tell you all he desires to have you know.

A true lady or gentleman, one who is worthy of the name, will never disparage one of the other sex by word or deed.

Always remember that a book that has been loaned to you is not yours to loan to another.

Mention your wife or your husband with the greatest respect, even in your most familiar references.

If you have calls to make, see that you attend to them punctually. Your friends may reasonably think you slight them when you fail to do so.

Be neat and careful in your dress, but take care not to over dress. The fop is almost as much of an abomination as the slovenly man.

If wine or liquors are used on your table or in your presence, never urge others to use them against their own inclinations.

As you end you day, your days. Ask yourself. Did I do ok today? Did I listen loudly and clearly to my sidekick Jesus. What can I do better tomorrow? Re read every day of our life in front of Him. (PF).

Commit to the re-write of a better day, better days. In His new light.
