Hi there.
How's things?
How's your live going?
Are you enjoying your work? Family and other things?
Today is my day off, and I went to the doctors, and all of that, and then went to the beach.
And I had a walk along it, and i have never felt so close to God.
It was just me, and other people enjoying life with their dogs.
And no matter where you are or what you're going through, you're on your way, and you're ok.
No matter if people are telling you to fix things, or work better or faster, and getting frustrated because things are going right in their world, and no matter if that's true, you're on your way.
You're not in control of their lives, and no one can be in control of you.
No matter what happens or what you're going thorugh you can't make them any better.
And here's a news flash, no matter if they are telling you that you're no good, or what, or sworn at or abused, or bullied, no doubt that they are doing that others, no matter how ''popular'' they are, the truth underneath it all is , that they are probably very unpopular.
As I walked along the beach, I saw some dogs, and I love dogs, but this one had particular determination, he was a big boy, a lab cross, and he only had one eye, and he lost his eye quite recently.
And I thought recently, man even if I am bullied and abused at my work place, and I thought of this dog, how had no voice, no complaints, and only had one eye, and if it's a disease he will loose the other eye, and here it was walking up the sand dunes.
And what was this person complaint about me?
And all seemed useless a chasing after the wind, this dog couldn't but only rely on his feet and his one eye to see where he was going.
It told me that some people are pretty short sighted.
It also taught me seeing this dog, it was determined to get up the sand dune, and it felt no pity because of lack of sight, it knew that at the top it will flatten out and it will be ok.
My friend if you're thinking you've got to keep going, and keep going you shall, but the top will flatten out soon.
In the bible, it says, that the apostles worked hard with their hands during the day, and night, living not for themselves.
If you look around you, who do you like working with?
And who likes you?
It's not about sides, I don't take sides, but taking sides only leads to letdown and stressing.
The apostles weren't wealthy, many times they were flung into prison, whipped until bleeding, and then died, but they worked hard with their hands, sharing, what they had.
And that is what God requires of you, to work hard, to not wear the blinkers of lies and hate, but to live in freedom, no matter if they seem ''Christian'' or not.
It doesn't take long for a rose to look lovely during the day, but even the rose starts to fade and eventually die.
So no matter if you're on your way, and you're feeling awful at what has happened, be like the disciples, to work hard, because you're not working for money, you're working for God, and when you work for God you're always going to be blessed, even though it's hard.
