Wondering minds want to know, "How come we choose two people to run for President and 50 for Miss America?"

      Thoughts such as these occupy my mind.  I daydream a lot too. I remember drifting in thought one day and I awoke with my co-worker shaking my shoulders and calling my name.  "What we're you thinking about?" She asked.  I must have looked like some zombie with my eyes wide open, starring into nothing.

      Actually, I was thinking about Heaven and the great buffet. Boy it sure would be awesome to eat everything in sight and not worry about my weight, for a change. I could see the big table spread before  me. I felt like royalty; there were place cards near every dinner plate. I feverishly scanned the table for my name and wonder who would sit next to me at the great banquet.  I silently prayed hoping  Paul or David would sit next to me. I dared not try to sit next to Jesus; so many dressed in white robes will want that spot.  Perhaps John would sit there. What a daydream!

      I finally told my Co-Worker I was thinking of Heaven. She immediately reported me to mental health.  I told her I wasn't suicidal; I'm a Christian! The Spiritual always keep the prize in sight as we run this race.  We don't live just to live. Our lives are purpose driven  (1 Cor 9:24-27). What she didn't realized was that I was mesmerized with Heaven. Solomon, the wisest man ever, said, "For as he thinketh in his heart so is he," Proverbs 23:7. I guess I'm Heaven bound because that's what I constantly have on my mind. I think about being with God after this life.

What's on your mind? Is it carnal or spiritual?

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before....

Freedom

Freedom Fighter For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the Scriptures” --1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (Meanwhile in Heaven) “Now let’s see what they will do.” “Does anyone know what just happened?”   “I don’t think so Father; look at them scurrying around like ants. They are oblivious to my death.”   “Give it time, Give it time.” “How much more time?”  “Look! There’s one praying. She talks to me all the time. Her heart is so tender and loving like us.”   “Listen.”

Get Ready

W hen the Children of God came to the Red Sea, no doubt their motivation levels were very low. They had Pharaoh and his army behind them, mountains on the sides of them and the Red Sea ahead of them.  There seemed to be no way out of this saga.  A movie where the villain has the good person cornered.  You wonder how they were going to get out of it. God's people waited 450 years to be released from Egypt and right at their blessing (crossing the Red Sea), the God's Children cries out to Moses, "Because there were no graves in Egypt, has thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Wherefore has thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt? Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than we should die in the wilderness."  Moses answers the people by saying, "Fear ye not, stand still and see the salvation ...
