Here I sit typing away this e-mail to you. I wonder if it is worth it to
send it or not. What would you think? Or would you care if I do send
it. But I type away just to share my thoughts. Just passing thoughts of
a moment of time and space before heading off to bed.
Here with in this dirty house I live. The house is being remodeled. I
can not wait until the house is back to normal. The kitchen is torn
apart. The items from the kitchen are boxed up and packed through out
the first floor.
Tomorrow the carpenter may come. Hopefully tomorrow the inspector will
come to inspect the wiring. Once that is done. The sheet rock can be
put up, then cabinets and all.
Here I sit before this computer. Typing my thoughts and trying not to
think about what is around me.
Aaaaaaaaaahhhhh what is life? What is normal? Yea, what is normal? Is
normal being healthily and having no problems? Or is normal facing
life's heartaches each and everyday. Not giving into life's pressures.
But facing them with God's Spirit and strength.
Aaaaaah, what is Life? Facing a bright new day even in the dead of pain.
Even it seems hopeless and all. But when life seems hopeless and all.
What one must do to let go of the rope. What rope? The rope we think
that is saving us? It could be pride that is holding us back to let go.
It could fear that is holding us back to let go. Or could a number of
things.
We put up walls around us to cover the truth with in. We deceive
ourselves at times to the point where we believe them. That is why it
called deceive. Deceive or a lie which covers the pain.
Another word that came to my mind is mask. Is life a big play like a
play on Broadway? I have sit in malls, stand on the corner of downtown,
and sat in the car waiting for my wife. While waiting I sometime spent
watching people go by.
It is amazing what one sees while waiting. People hurrying to go
somewhere. Trying to put as much as they can with in time. But time is
not ours to give or save. Time just ticks on even while we wait or as I
type this thought.
Back to that word mask. It is amazing how children see things. When we
were children things seem so simple. We wonder why adults put on mask.
We question their lies. As they lie to each other. But if the child
mention the lies. The adult covers it up. And tells the child to be
quiet.
Then as life goes on from childhood to adult. The mask comes on. Why do
we cover up our hurt to one another? Why do we cover up are true feeling
to one another?
MASK?......
Another thought to share that past through. How does one go about his
life with out knowing Christ? How can one deny Christ and God the
Father? How can one say there is no God? When before their eyes is the
universe? How can one question there is no God? How can they? When God
is giving them air to breathe, food to eat, and water to drink. Can
they answer what makes the heart pump or stop?
God is God.........He makes the rules. He does it for our best interest.
Can imagine not have gravity? I am laughing at that one. How can the
clay rebel to the potter? Clay can not turn the wheel. Clay can not add
the water. Clay can not form itself.
tick....tick.......Tick......Tick.....TIck.........TICK..............................silent........then
dead.......
What would life be with out knowing Jesus Christ in a personal
way?.....................empty
God loves you and so do I.
