You may be angry and honest

I have been angry for a long, long time, but I did not admit it to myself. I have been angry with my business partner that ruined the business and almost ruined my life. I have been angry because had to sell my car to pay the bills. I am angry, but I denied it.

Till I read a scripture and study

Ps 6:6 (NLT)

I am worn out from sobbing. All night I flood my bed with weeping, drenching it with my tears.

David poured out his heart with tears. He was completely honest with God. We can be honest with God even when we are filled with anger or despair because God knows us thoroughly and wants the very best for us. Anger may result in rash outward acts or turning inward toward depression. Be honest with God and He will help you turn your attention from yourself to Him and His mercy.

When I read this I realized that I do not have to hide my anger from God, He appreciates it when I show Him how I feel (he knows already in any case). It was like a weight rolled from my shoulders when I admitted my anger and frustration.

I am still angry, but I am working on honesty and openness to God.

Every day you are beaten

I came across this post from Bryan Ward this morning: Every day you are beaten : Beaten by the leaky sink you keep avoiding. Beaten by the applesauce on the wall you keep not scrubbing off. Beaten by the dent in the drywall you keep putting off fixing. You long to conquer mountains, yet every day you are beaten by molehills. All these little problems… they should be so easily solved. Yet they go on defeating you, day after day, until at last you conclude that you are not a capable man: If you are this easily defeated, “surely” you do not have what it takes to win the bigger fights: to become your fittest self, to create a business empire, to create works of art that will outlast you. Hell, you can’t even fix a leaky sink: might as well f*** off and go watch TV. But you’ve misdiagnosed the problem entirely. … One summer day when I went into the workshop, I saw that the plastic gas cans by the tractor were bulging like balloons. I had left the vents closed, and the hea...

RIP MC

We pass each other in the office day by day, but we do not know .. We do not understand ... We do not see the pain behind their smiles .. We do not see the crippling illness ... Because we did not know ... MC rest in peace

Death and Dying

When I die… When I die when my coffin is being taken out you must never think i am missing this world don’t shed any tears don’t lament or feel sorry i’m not falling into a monster’s abyss when you see my corpse is being carried don’t cry for my leaving i’m not leaving i’m arriving at eternal love when you leave me in the grave don’t say goodbye remember a grave is only a curtain for the paradise behind you’ll only see me descending into a grave now watch me rise how can there be an end when the sun sets or the moon goes down it looks like the end it seems like a sunset but in reality it is a dawn when the grave locks you up that is when your soul is freed have you ever seen a seed fallen to earth not rise with a new life why should you doubt the rise of a seed named human have you ever seen a bucket lowered into a well coming back empty why lament for a soul when it can come back like Joseph from the well when for the last time y...
