Christian Friendship Kids

With so many paths, roads, avenues and initiatives of communication at our fingertips, how is it that we can mess things up so often?

The Gray Area? An excuse?

The Misinformation? Another excuse?

The padding? Today’s excuse?

The demonizing demeaning? Tomorrow’s excuse?


The make-‘em-look-bad-at-all-costs? Yesterday’s excuse.

The scare ‘em-outta-their-pants-initiative? Never-ending excuse?


For some, fear can be a very powerful motivator to achieve personal success. Fear can be insidious. Fear can make us do things we could never have imagined doing. It is scary too. Full moon or no full moon—although scientifically noted research indicates “things happen” in and around the forces of a full moon….and it ain’t always a pretty sight.


The full moon is a lunar phase when the Moon appears fully illuminated from the earth’s perspective. This occurs when Earth is located between the Sun and the Moon. Folklore explains that insomnia, insanity and lycanthropy can all result.(pf)


Check. Check. Check. My goodness, have experienced all three. To the looney bin for me? Jury is still out. Maybe just a good night’s sleep😬😵‍💫🫣🤕 I hope so. Because, I am very, very tired of a heart that hurts, of another’s heart that hurts. I will not give up on helping mend a broken heart-mine or any others.


Just saying. For some it is simply not in their DNA to walk away. Not with the presence of a half moon, crescent moon, hare’s moon, milk moon, mother’s moon, ice moon, etcetera, etcetera.


Be afraid, be very afraid. Of persons who use fear against you. They are mean. Generally vindictive. And do not have another person’s best interest at the core of their heart.


Speaking from the heart is really a path to ascension. Over time, it will become up to you which path you choose to take. With His presence is a wondrous and wonderful way to walk the path. He will never let you down. Ya may not be rolling in the dough. But self-assurance will be yours that He will meet you where you are. Show a better way to a life well lived. Doubters may not be convinced and that is ok. He will meet you where you are anyway. And. Later. At the gates of a heaven I know exists.


Not ready to go there just yet. But am far from afraid if the time is soon.


Be not afraid.

I go before you always.

Come follow me.

And I will give you rest.


Sounds good to me.

Because I am very, very tired.

Almost walk-into-a-wall-kind-of-tired. But when I ask Him for strength. He delivers. He places into my heart the options. Be good or be not good. When I am weary, I blow it.


When I ask Him, call on Him, he picks me back up.🙂 Time and time again. Some of us use the concept of busy-ness to conduct our business. Some of us exercise genuine care and concern. Where you fall, or should I say where you stand will make all the difference in your world. Most important it has a positive effect and a possibility of providing the best of all the worlds of others.


Cool!


Take the time to figure it out. Because fear will always be waiting for you. Here. There. Everywhere.Full, half or crescent moon. And you will blow it too. Blow your top. Blow a tire. Blow a bubble.


And upon release of the tension. How will you know?


Wounds and hurts.


If you used His guidance well and good? It only takes a spark to get a fire going. Wounds and hurts are our way of learning. He knows this. And He will use your wounds and hurts to guide you on a path to a better way.


Don’t be too afraid to admit your fears. Otherwise where they become buried may become even scarier.


Two important things to remember about fear:


The body keeps score.

He does not keep score.


Suffering, problems, and conflicts have a way of showing us what to do and what not to do. When we choose the short cuts, we will usually be filled up with enough regret to last a lifetime.


I, for one, do not wish that for you. To spend your lifetime with regrets when the alternative was so, so, so


Simple.


Be an active participant in a life well lived. There once was a story. There was a group of persons who sat in a circle. They threw their problems into a pot in the middle of the circle. Whose problem would you take out, take back? Chances are as bad as you may think things are for you, there are others facing worse and or more devastating circumstances.


Heartbreaking.


Showing humanity through our wounds. (pf). is a great and wonderful way to get out and stay out of our own heads. Setbacks of fear will rear and fear their ugly heads. But stick with positive responsiveness based on His words, deeds and actions and in the long run, all will be better. It will. I promise.


He will intercede on your behalf.(pf). but ya gotta be direct with Him. Ask for His forgiveness. Straight up. Not on the rocks. Not on a pedestal. Not on a condition. Not on a bribe, social or otherwise. Ask Him how to be a better person to another. And then.


Be Better.

Be Best.

Be Your Best You.


What is flying around the air waves is not normal. It is mean. It is un-Godly awful really. Some of the adults in the room forgot their manners. Thinking of ways, means, and methods as a way to dis-credit a person is a way to get ahead. Is just mean. Lays down an unnecessary destruction that causes and wreaks havoc on countless lives.


It is very bad. Fear being used as the weapon. Don’t bite back.


Be a bridge of kindness, love and warmth. Not a participant of a war that separates. (pf) Stay away from a personal war that separates from being good to one another. It is and can be so, so, so difficult as many people are suffering in many corners of the world. The best you can do is the best you can do.


A great place to start. If no one else holds you accountable. You hold you accountable. Then the communications word jungle will not be so frightening and scary. The temptation to get drawn into bad words, deeds and actions will lessen.


I guarantee it. No coupon need be redeemed. Because when you choose to ascend as He teaches the sky is not only the limit, He will meet you in the heavens and will greet you with open and welcoming arms!


Renewed. Recreated. Redeemed.


Cool!
