Spiritual Quietness

Sometimes, it good to get away from the noise. Go somewhere quiet to gather your thoughts. That's a rare commodity in my life. There's the noise of the road, noise of the boys, and noise of a busy office. Often times I can't wait to be alone with the Master. We all need spiritual quietness from time to time. Spiritual quietness is a mini revival where you get into the scriptures and absorb all of God's wisdom. This is a time to repent of sins, to renew spiritual promises you made and to communion with the Creator. It's a time of reflection of the past and preparing up for the future. You can have your spiritual quietness early in the morning when everyone asleep or take a nature walk in the middle of the day. How about grabbing your bike and ride the bike trail. Wherever you go and however you get there, take your Bible. On your spiritual journey of quietness, remienscence on the goodness of God. Awe Him! Thank Him for all the times he came to your rescue. Spiritual quietness is a time of reflection of Jesus' death. Therefore, grab that blanket, cooler filled with food and drinks, and take your bible to some place away from people and be with God. He rarely get the chance to have uninterrupted time with you. He deserves that much, don't you think?

I Got You!

Do you remember going to the arcades? You and your friends’ old rendezvous spot, battling for the top spot in one of the popular games. While you guys horsed around, a group of troublemakers bullied their way onto the machines? Your posy band together vowing to have each other’s back. Now days, every man for himself. Someone will call 911 for you, any more than that would be heroic (Romans 5:7). No one takes on any man’s cause anymore. The back-in-the-day phrase was "I got your back."

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....

I Didn't See That Coming

Arriving at work, I put my lunch bag in the refrigerator, fired up the computer and entered my logged on. The phone rang. "This is Ms. Swanson," I told the caller. "Yes, right away." I hung up the phone, reached for my keys and raced downstairs asking God to provide what I need from the spiritual realm. I wasn’t sure what I would run up against. A policeman was at my car writing a ticket. One of the sergeants’ saw my handicap placard on the seat and called me to come down quickly. While racing to the car, I noticed my IPhone watch on my arm. I wasn't allowed to wear it at work, especially with security violation written all over the action. I forgot to take it off! Supposed someone saw it, I could lose my job. Right at that moment I remembered to get my retainer from my purse when I put it in the truck. It could melt in the heat, costing a replacement cost of $300. All I can say is, "I didn't see that...
