No man is an Island

I am not an island unto myself. I cannot shut you out. I cannot exist in this world with out affecting you. You cannot do anything with out affecting me. We are joined together by God but held together by each other.  The only way we can grow up is to grow together. We must learn to walk in love. We have to teach each other what that is. We cannot say well I know how to do but you dont so too bad. We are a part of each other. We need each other to survive. We cannot survive when there is division and isolation. We must encourage each other to care and to know that we can only survive if we survive together. We must learn to walk in love.

I ask God to tell me what to say. I feel as if I have exhausted all the one way conversation that I have in me. I dont know what to say anymore. I ask God what to say and nothing came so I said nothing. Now I speak. I spent more quiet time with God and I am working on the unity of faith. All of our work must be for the edifying of the Lord. We have to grow together and when one is not growing the we have to help them until they can grow. We dont get to move on without them.We dont hurt someone just because we are hurting. We help them, we love them and we dont let them go. We allow someone to love us so that we can know love and be loved. We first must love ourselves. To love ourselves we must know ourselves. Through our relationship with God we grow more in the knowledge of ourselves. I continue daily to work on my relationship with the Lord. I love the Lord. I feel like my plate is overloaded with the things that need to be done in my life. Im pulled every which way but loose.

Good Morning

Good Morning Lord. Thank You for another day. I move through this problem centered world with as much grace as I can call upon. My problems/challenges are limited to my perspective. Lord, I have so much to do at work. I am just trying to keep it in perspective. I pray that I am not just putting band-aids on things that really need a long term solution. Am I looking at the problem the wrong way.  Help me see vision in these projects and allow me to determine and decide what my responsibility and contribution will be for all of the demands I are responsible for. To the Saints who are also faithful in Christ Jesus our ultimate goal is to overcome and adversity and confusion and to be united. I want to get this research paper, lesson plan and unit plan defined and printed today. I have been thinking, redesigning, discussing and just plain working on it for way too long. I want to put it in writing today and give it to the people who need it, today. By geting this portion done today I will feel more whole and less broken. That's what I need to do. Prioritize. That one paper, in the 8th grade hands, for their parents will make my day.

Thank you Lord for today anyway. No matter what. At first I was going to have to bring the little man and now I dont so I get to stay in the city and get there on time to get a good seat. Praise the Lord. Some things do actually work together (without me asking anything to anyone) for the good of them that love the Lord. Be blessed today and be a blessing to someone. Make a much needed connection. Let your heart rule over your mind today. Jesus really does love you and so do I.  

Good Morning

Good Night

Thank You God for letting me hear your voice. You said stay and I will stay. You said to be planted and not uproot my life. You want me to stay and I will stay. I trust the Lord to be true and faithful to me. So I stay and I plant myself firmly, right here.  I stay in love and work towards a true and uplifting relationship. God bless you and I love you. Good Night.

Happy Birthday to Me

It is my 50th.

I let it come in quiet.

No fanfare, no big deal at work. I didnt even tell anyone, not even my students.

We had a meeting until almost 5pm.

I;m blessed to be here and to know that my day is filled with stuff. Im tired. I had a full day,  Be blessed today.,

Happy Easter

 

Thank You Lord for 'Resurrection Sunday!

Thank You Lord for coming our of that grave. Thank You Lord for saving us. Thank You Lord for loving us when we did not love ourselves.

I appreciate you, I don't take you for granted. I know your worth and the price you paid for me. I acknowledge the sacrifice made for me. I am grateful. I am faithful. I wont change my mind.  I will stay the course. I wont get distracted.

Father God

Father God, I ask you to tell me what to say tonight.

I wont be at the seven last words event tonight.

I wan to touch the heart of the man I love.

Love is on my mind and maybe that is why this message has come to the front of my mind. I said that I wanted something to say about the Rev Wright thing but you chose not to respond, I wanted something to say about the fact that I missed the Trinity fourth word that my darling had today, but you chose to send me to the message that was important for him. My heart wants to connect with him tonight. I love how he plays when he plays. We overcame the bat thing last night and he was able to play and put the baby to sleep. I love how he plays.

What did you send me to today, compatibility in marriage. I pray and confess that my spouse and I endure long and are patient and kind, that we are never envious aNd never boil over with jealousy. We are not boastful and vainglorious and we do not display ourselves haughtily.

I want us to be there for each other. I will not be there tonight. My babysitting days are Thursday, Friday and Sunday. I am not going to bring him out tonight. The weather is a big factor. I love him. I want to see him tonight. I will listen tonight. I wish I could see him, but who knows when actual video will be available. I watched Trinity today. I love him. I love him, I love him.

I will bear up anything and everything that comes my way. I am ready to believe in the best that can be of the two of us. I LOVE THE IDEA OF THE TWO OF US. BE BLESSED AND BE A BLESSING DEDICATED TO THE TWO OF US. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU.
