I've Been Waiting

The waiting is the hardest part. Many times in my 46 years I have rushed the process. It seems every time I do it doesn't come off the way I had hoped for. On the other hand I have matured over the years and have learned this lesson on my own. God's timing is much better than mine and has fewer struggles to go with it. His yoke is easy and Hid burden is light. I think the older I get the more i realize if I'm struggling to MAKE something happen it is not God's will. I'm not saying life does not have it's struggles or what God calls us to do isn't hard at times. What I am saying is to wait on God is a gift. That gift always turns out better than if I earned it of my own making !!! Waiting causes me to get out of my head and focus of this day...One day at a time is a spiritual principle that gives Peace. Waiting also teaches me I really have no control over anything except what I say and what I do....The understanding of lack of power is power......Gnaw on that one a while.....
Peace and Love

Weirdness

Lately the theme has been if you want what normal people have do what normal people do.....If you want what a few very peaceful, easy going not too connected to this world people have, you gotta be a little weird...Normal people do things to get noticed, even some in a supposedly Christian atmosphere still have their own agenda....and it's really obvious to those who don't......but even having said that God still does what only He can do through many adverse circumstances. You got to be weird to be unselfish because it goes against our human nature....but trusting God and being just a little weird even when it feels well........a little weird.....can result in some uncommon Peace and contentment known only to the few, the not proud, the not "normal" .....Weirdo's         From one weirdo to all those,very few, weirdos who read this blog........Peace and Love !!
