Carry the Burden

One thing you don’t do is self destruct, self doubt, or second guess yourself. Everything happens in a timely manner. Nothing ever works out perfectly.

You carry yourself like you’re carrying boats and logs.  In the end, it all works out. You will realize that the things that you thought were a big deal, were not that important after all. All people struggle with communication and deadlines, and everyone does their best to carry some of the load for themselves or for one another. 

Tough times are inevitable, welcome them, face them, and the world is yours. Do not let anything disturb you. God is there with you. Are you not a believer of miracles? He will give you the strength and wisdom. He always has. Did you not get through the marathon? God knows exactly how you’re going to make it. 

Keep carrying your weight. Keep building the garden. Plow the field. The championships will come. The accolades become side effects of your work. No one is against you. How could they be against someone trying to change the world while following the will of God? Prosperity always awaits, and it’s near. People are wondering how you are doing it, and the deeper they look, the more they will find God. It is Him. You will draw more to Him. It is He who carries us.

Before you lacked boundaries and were a people pleaser. All of a sudden you burn bridges accordingly. Yet, you still manage to love from the other side. Insert waving MPC character here. You still reconstruct bridges.  Insert St. Joseph here. You’re a hero! More like a savage, but that’s heroism. Insert Chuck Norris pic here.

Fail again and again. Struggle again and again. This is God’s will. Sacrifice, pain, and suffering is necessary. Suffer with a smile because it makes victory more glorious when it arrives. Carry on. 

The Journey Not the Destination

 Write about the struggle…

Writing the struggle and how to overcome it is what serves others. Carry out the ministry in good and in bad.  At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what other people think. 

You prayed for this. To be more outgoing, to be recognized as elite, responsible, manly, strong man of faith. You wanted to be busy, you wanted the smoke. All the smoke! You wanted the attention, respect, collaboration. You asked for good friends, people, love. Genuine, honest, caring partners, not inauthentic, disloyal, perpetual complainers or gossipers. You wanted to mature, be strong, resilient. 

These are little deaths, that I have to get used to. Not being loved, valued, or wanted. 

I’m not going to be around people that are always mad, jealous, irritated, or offended about everything. That energy is contagious. I will stay away. I will suffer. Suffer with joy. Didn’t need those people anyway. I kinda liked them though. I wanted them in my circle, but I need people that are uplifting. Screaming, living invitation to believe in better things. 

They tried to bury us, they didn’t know we were seeds. 

Only fear the Lord. God puts you through the struggle because you are praying for it. If you want to grow as a person, you will have obstacles. Something small to a giant. Life is a game. You have to go through it. If you’re praying about it, don’t be surprised when God’s sends the conflict then the climax. Offer it up for the souls in purgatory. Teach others how to get out of the funk. You can’t escape it. Feel the pain. Live it. Embrace and welcome it. It’s a good feeling. It doesn’t numb you. It makes you feel alive! 

You’re a King. Treat yourself like one. Don’t be so dependent on others. Value your time. Be there for others, then move to the next task. You’re an alpha in disguise ;) They don’t know that. That’s the story. The dawg, that no one knew about. Speak with confidence. Your biggest flex is not flexing.  

This is not my ministry, this is God’s ministry, I’ve been sent. This is the journey not the destination. I love the journey. Something small to a giant. Change the world! It’s not how I’m going to do it, it’s how God’s going to do it. One soul at a time or a group of souls at a time. 

“Face all evil, trials and tribulations with our Lord God with no doubt and victory is at hand. 

Be strong and of good courage, do not fear or be in dread of them: for it is the LORD your God who goes with you; he will not fail you or forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6 

I love this! Show them Lord! Show them again and again.
