"God Is God All By Himself"

Before I author the conclusion to any story, I grasp and hold tight and near that of God's gracious glory.

Plenty and entirely too many times we write the ending prior to factoring in God's beginning. Where we end by way of our logical efforts is exactly where God begins by way of His miraculous efforts.

God is God All by Himself!

For what we can offer Him by way of assistance is equivalent to exponential insults.

But what we can offer ourselves by way of God's assistance is no less equivalent than exponential Blessings.

So, before we write the conclusion to our stories, we must right ourselves within God's glory and obtain the type of assistance that we cannot conjure up for ourselves, hence the reason, "God is God All by Himself!"

Glory Be To God!

"Unspoken Words"

Everyone should learn how to read the "Unspoken Words" that emanate from the actions and gestures of those that are closest to us. Everyone will not and some do not know how to verbalize their innermost, sensitive thoughts. But that does not mean that they do not have the desire to share in them. They just might not know how to or are too afraid.

But their "Unspoken Words" need to be communicated and if we pay close enough attention to what has not been verbally communicated, we might find ourselves in the right place, at the right time, counseling and comforting someone that needs our ears to hear, our thoughts to share or the warmth from our embrace.

"Unspoken Words" are still words! They are just words that have to be read with the heart, by first identifying that something needs to be said followed up with the mindful consideration that you may have to extract it from someone that truly and desperately wants to share it with you anyway.

Look for those "Unspoken Words" that are written all around you.

Listen to those same "Unspoken Words" that you can hear all around you.

Answer the "Unspoken Words" that were not written for you to read and not said in order for you to hear. And notice that the common denominator for all of the above is and has been, "you."

"You" are the difference between what is not written and what is not stated since it is "you" that has the gift to discern and the gift to make the difference with complete respect to Life's "Unspoken Words."

"Made Whole Again"

Trials throughout Life, in their greatest of efforts, try to rip you apart. But that effort is strictly contingent upon your perspective. You see, everything is not what it appears to be and oft times what we think was meant to destroy us was actually meant to construct us, hence the contingency upon said perspective.

We see what our vision allows us to see by way of our approach to what we have seen. In other words, our vision alone is not sufficient in order for us to see all that needs to be seen. Our efforts and our efforts alone are not sufficient enough to do all that needs to be done.

We respond within the confines of our limited vision because it is there where we have chosen to stockpile our Faith. But Faith is not defined solely in what we see. Truth be told, Faith's primary residence has no need for a secondary residence because it only resides within itself.

Faith's front door is its back door. Faith's front yard is its back yard. Faith's street address, zip and area codes are Faith's street address, zip and area codes.

What we thought was meant to destroy us, by Faith, was meant to build us up by way of constructing within us, the proper infrastructure to one day be able to reflect back or acknowledge right in the middle and during all of our trials, that from my perspective, I have been, "Made Whole Again."

"Things Have Changed"

Adamantly, we hold our positions in hopes that our new surroundings will comply to the old ways in which we used to do things. Used to in the sense that irrespective of our hard stance, we are destined to change or face the future chained to ways, practices and habits that left us behind as the rest of Life continued to move about within said winds of change.

Everything around and about us is demonstrative of what needs to occur within us, if we are to elevate ourselves to a higher plane or soar within the confines of a noun baring the same name.

As the eyes of admiration are upon the new, it should be abundantly clear from the view, that "Things Have Changed."
