Notes on life: Do we want help from the Lord?


This is not a motivation for Monday . . .. This is the unveiling of what life really is, A huge learning experience.  It is a time of reflection and growth and interaction with the world around us.  It is a period of time that we can come out of our selves's to consider the perspective of others if we so choose to love them.  If we choose to really see life through their eyes.

I woke up this morning with the intention of working all day.  I wanted to commit to the tasks that I know I have to do.  You know how we commit ourselves to those things that are not really important.  Family is important, friends, and God is important.  Building our relationship with Jesus is important.  However I am saddened by the hurt in the world and the perspective of Jesus it carries with it.

I have been accused of proselytizing on too many occasions.  I am at this moment reflecting on why people only see me as a woman of faith, a woman who is upright and dedicated to serving the Lord.  A woman who is forceful in the message with no sympathy to those who are living life the best they can.  For I am only a person with grief and pain and opportunities to grow like any other.  I fail everyday like anyone else.  I'm not trying to force feed anyone my perspective of faith, I just want to share my relationship with the Lord.  But what I am learning is that not everyone sees it that way.  I have to sit back  and consider that point of view.  How can I win souls for Jesus when it seems like no one cares.  And those who do care cannot be convince that we have so far to go.

What do I do Lord about my Life?  What do I do Lord about the ministry?  People are looking for away out but they don't understand that what they are looking for is you.  How do you help people when they have become so self sufficient and therefore don't want your help?
