Reproach
I make no pretense.There are things I choose not to share.When you hear this you know what your thing is that brings despair.One thing you only share with others you know care;where there is safety from stares.Stay there 'til the sickness leaves the air&mercy rings true in your ear.Who am I to judge creation,predestination,salvation or revelations true or imagination?I am not the prosecution.I am with the defense.
Meditation
Sometimes you just got to let go of all that you've got:with all of your energy shake off all that binds you in your mind,find it&push it away until you say"it is all yours God,come what may,come what might,I release all of me to you tonight&only take pleasure in the gifts of comfort&bliss you provide.Lord,let me be wise"One caveat,consider what you might do if it came true.Its up to you.
Impatience
I hate what I think I see in you because I think I see the same in me.We try to control because we have little self-control.We have an intricate belief system that fights confusion,disorder&inexplicible horror to protect your psyche from worry,fr...et&fear.We turn a blind eye to light or deafen our ears to right.Labels make sense of nonsense but nonsense,chaos&decay stay near."What might work?"not"do what you are told!"
Volunteer
Something so simple as serving another brings blessings that far outshine,outnumber&outlast lifes grief.Such a small thing to welcome a child,to encourage the downhearted,to assist the elderly reframes your world&affirms the belief that God has cared for you everso compassionately:a friend indeed,fresh food guaranteed,help when you bleed,the money you need&your abilities.Love not charity.
Evangelism
I dug taters 'til this fellow came along.So we satnchat awhile.Then he said "you makin money or are you takin chances?"I said,"Sir,I've been diggin taters,tendin t' wifenchillins,takin care of mawnsittin on fences"Didnt you say your a gentleman&a scholar?"He said with a grin."No,I didnt"A bird told me you are a man of honor"He said&he was gone.Nothin wrong with songs,festive throngs n idle hours.What then?
JJ's take
Lord,you know Im a fool for you.I keep waiting around looking in the sky;a perfect situation with no provocation,sitting on the fence watching it all go by,teetering on extinction or looking for a place to hide while Joshua Hosanna Immanuel walks beside.Maybe means probably not.Lord,help me.Im in a spot.Sometimes Im lazy or afraid to be disappointed.I dont know why.Let me go with your flow¬ stop.
MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS
MNCs sending jobs (rent,utilities&groceries) overseaswhile we sit ill at ease watching people fight in the streets over half a sandwich from Wendy's.Those new jobs in the Phillipines moved on too.The trickle down theory just isnt true.What is Latin America supposed to do?Grow your food or shine your shoes??!
