a poem that goes here there and everywhere from 2020 on

  *******I will preface this by warning you, with this poem I went there. I may have provoked a bear. Not that I don’t care. Remember this is my processing, it won’t align with your views necessarily. It’s not meant to. It’s simply meant to make you question and ponder the narratives we’ve been fed the past few years. I haven’t dialogued with many in person about things, mostly because I would start crying and no one would understand my points and it’s a mess, I’ve got to get it together to be able to talk to people about important things, but for now I just write. Would love to be able to debate but that’s not my strength for now. Sheesh I used to in high school, what has become of me? I digress. I just hope you make it through this whole poem is all and don’t stop half through cause I promise really it’s about me not you.******         The other day I did confess In 2021 I was a mess That COVID-19 Vaccine Had me STRESSED I knew it was no ...

Random thoughts on Philippians 4:6-7

  do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:6-7   I’ve been chewing on these verses a lot the past few days. Wednesday night I went to a prayer meeting and was laid out, literally. One woman was praying for the spirit of anxiety and fear to come out, and the peace of Christ rule in me, and another – I don’t remember much of what she said, but she kept repeating that I have a transformed mind, a transformed mind, a transformed mind.   I didn’t realize I had that much anxiety, but maybe if you’ve read this blog, you do know I have anxiety. I’m anxious about what church I should go to, I’m anxious about friends, I’m anxious about whether talking to a man in Rwanda is a good idea or completely stupid, I’m anxious about how is God going to heal my m...

In the little, humbling things

  My latest idea of direction to go with in my life is to become both a public speaker (go ahead and laugh, the idea is pretty humorous…) and a life coach. My niche would be working with caregivers to help them find identity and purpose outside of their caretaking role. I think the need is there. We’ll see though. It takes some work to pull off a business like that, and I’m not sure my mom would support me, and since I live with her, it could put a cramp in things.                It’s really funny though. So last night, and a lot recently, I’ve been thinking about Kilwins, and how resistant I was to working there. I was insulted by the pay, it just seemed like I should go anywhere else. But the longer I stayed, the more my heart grew for my co-workers. The owners of the store are nominally Christian, but, since I’ve been working there there’s only been one other Christian, and she injured her hands and can’t sc...

Removing the Barriers to Healing

 Last night I went to Joy's free session of applying her book to your life and deliverance. While I think some friends would appreciate the teaching she shared, most would be way turned off by the deliverance part... particularly the part where some are throwing up their demons, it's gross, there's no other way to put it. I think though for people who've never needed deliverance to that extent, it's easy for them to sit back and say it's all fake. It's not. There really are spirits leaving the person being delivered. And they do cause the person to sway and vibrate and sometimes gag and throw up. Think about it, if a spirit has hidden away in a person for years, they are stubborn and not willing to go, and it takes force to expel them out. Thankfully I wasn't in this group, but I was prepared to throw up if I needed to. I didn't eat dinner.  Joy taught on Exodus mostly, and went through Exodus 20 as a roadmap of deliverance. The story of Israel from ...

My song to Megan

 I didn't want people thinking I only write songs to one person.  I have one to my friend Ray and Allie Beth Stuckey too... Candace Owens doesn't have one yet, but maybe I'll write her one in the future. She probably already has plenty of folks writing her songs. I started writing one to Lea and Ray but it's not complete. I wrote this a few years ago, I'd like to think I've improved a bit in my lyrical abilities. Happy Sunday to all.  Megan   McFall   I love you I do I’m crazy I know But God loves me too He put us together For just such a season He put us together for A special reason You encourage me well Do tell What you know About prophecy I want to know You see Promise I’ll try By and by To not go crazy Crazy crazy All the time time time Yes I love you Yes I do I’d visit you if I Could I’d see you I know I should And I would But I’m broke That’s no joke But you see That I know And you know ...

We are still going to be friends!

 When I said I ended things with Honore, I meant... well, we're still going to be friends. And maybe close friends. And maybe best friends. And then I trust God will bring us together somehow.  I had gotten on hinge, the dating app, and this guy messaged me saying, we're the same we want the same things. I looked at his profile, and was like, ehhhhh... but I'll give him a chance... we talked... and I was like, yeah, it's a no. And also, there's not another Honore out there and I think he's the one for me and not another man will be. So he lives in Rwanda. We'll figure something out. God is supposed to heal my mom, right? 

humbled and discouraged

  So… I was kind of humbled today. I have to have three references for this missions trip to South Asia I want to go on. I don’t have a ton of references. I haven’t been super plugged in to any church because I’ve been divided between two, so its not like I’ve been involved in a specific ministry, besides Bible Fellowship. And I started going to the prayer meeting at Central. But… I have one foot in here and the other there, and I haven’t wanted to choose.   I know I need to choose Central. I know that’s where my gifts will be acknowledged, encouraged, and developed. Calvary does NOT believe in prophecy, or tongues, or the gifts of the spirit for today. Even if they didn’t say they were cessationists, they are. And they certainly don’t think Christians would need deliverance.   I just, I really do like my Bible Fellowship class. I was making friends. But… here’s the truth of it, I think they would be very discouraging of pursing other gifts of the spirit.   I...
