OKay !
OKay !
OKay !
I hear You.... and, I want to experience deliverance from this newly discovered...I should say rediscovered, obstacle. Release me from me !
Resentment: a feeling of indignant displeasure or persistent ill will at something regarded as a wrong, insult, or injury

Today, I knew the great pleasure of witnessing some small, inadequate, but long awaited restitution for the ravages of slavery's past harshness on the memories and spirits of my black friends. I went to a few of them with words of recognition to mark this day as noted by me and to share in their...
Bonfire. Hunting sticks in the woods with WeeTot, firing up the firebowl..... remote monster trucks coming down the deck stairs.... and going up Hubbs' ramps.... smelling like smoked bacon. Vampire teeth, flashing pumpkin earrings.... blankets on the cedar swing.... the envelope of firelight in...
Gosh I remember these songs. She had a few GREAT CDs, back in the day. She came up on rotation today.... it's been awhile. Her heart so touches mine in her earlier stuff....thanks for her, Jesus. It is me who makes the monsters and beats myself up...
Lordy Jesus, you have been SPEAKING to my heart these last few days ! 'Thank You,' do not touch it. Wow. Starting with the long awaited arrival of my package from the UK. That took a LONG TIME to aquire..... from Paul Scanlon....whom I adore more and more.
" The Power of Inclusion" The series...
.... Bob Richie... of Detroit, Michigan. Human Alpha. Thank You, Jesus ! Get him safely through the fray. Bring 'im Home, for Your glory, so I can spend a few spare decades with him.

My joy has been , well, AWOL. Need to hold Your hand awhile. I don't know why You let Your love for me through others become so few and far between.
I tried to give You to one of those who USED TO BE A VESSEL OF YOUR LOVE POURING OUT TO ME.... they rejected You. Now, just another bit of human...

"Nothing Left to Lose" ~ Puddle of Mudd ~
Jesus, today this song from Puddle of Mudd came up on the rotation in my MP3 player at work. I guess I heard it in a new way today, in light of the recent wrestling You and I have been engaged in. I've been...
Well, I have decided several things today and last night. I am surrounded in this family by people that ARE NOT LIKE ME !! They don't "get" the fire in my soul, or the passion (which is YOU) ! They may 'get' You one day, but not in any hurry. I have been accused of being a doormat, a bleeding...
I came around a bend at the bottom of Sheephole Road yesterday, coming home from work.... I do that every day, it's only a few miles from my house. Standing in the middle of the road, was a ram, in his prime, who had escaped from the fence just a few feet to his left. He was wide-eyed with...
OKay, it's just plain crazy what I do to myself, Jesus. I WANT to fall deeper in love with You alone...I ask for that over and over... I actually do it more and more...but, Your coaxing of me, scares me. You want me to lay down EVERYTHING else. Yikes !
SOOOOO, anyway, between here and there...
Jesus, I prayed so hard this morning. I wanted to do the right thing, and my past was coloring my common sense.... again ! I make decisions, trying to trust in Your providence, and I know that YOU KNOW how hard You have been on me, so MANY times, for whatever shaping reason.... no matter...
Jesus.... we were alone today.... I love that.... though it sort of seems like we ALWAYS are. I liked having no one ask me to do a thing, except me and You. AND, I did very little more than stare at the beauty of GR. The silent falling leaves were slow, golden and constant on this windless day...
TODAY is my anniversary on CF.... the end of YEAR #5, the beginning of YEAR #6 !!!!!!! WoodieHooooooo! In honor of the period at the end of that YEAR#5, today, I stop for me, and rest. See CF tomorrow.
It's time to come HOME to You on the inside. Let you BE GOD, today. Laying down my armour...
Well, this has been a hard few weeks.... mom-in-law, sis-in-law, Teknon, my friend M... all in and out of the hospital.... a cousin dealing with an abusive addicted mate whose been threatening her life and starving her... Hubbs and me got sick, too, praying and doing for everybody, learning new...
Jesus, today was a good, solid day in You ! I heard You in volume, and I knew You in friends. Thanks for the rugged new Christian friends I have at work....they got walks with legs on 'em ! I'm back in the company of peers, in You, and the ride is sustaining...and, I hear You in them, and my...
from October 1, 2008:
Jesus, I am learning a little something from YOU ! It's time to get ready for You to MOVE ME into the favor that You promise ME ! I'm so damn tired of the spirits of offense, rejection and grief comin' along, just at the 'right' time to take my joy away for a ride down...
from September 30, 2008:
Thanks, Jesus. I prefer to operate in reality... in Spirit and in Truth.
Today, I learned the man I used to love, in Teknon, is dead and gone, at least he wants me to believe that. He talks cold and hardened and angered by whatever he has been doing with himself for...
Well, Jesus.... first he calls two weeks ago and hangs up after an unexpected question... "You have been gone for two years. What are you doing?" Now, he calls in the middle of the night from a stretcher on his way into emergency surgery following a car accident. So, of course, we go to him...
Jesus, You KNOW the many things I have done that make me able to say..."YOU deserve much better than me." I love this CD from Hinder, and today I ran across this video.
Whew ! Didn't I cause You such GRIEF in the days of my drug saga. Lots of wasted time and so many people I hurt... especially...
