His ways are not Our ways,AND His thoughts are not Our thoughts

I sit and giggle at the things I ask God for , or the silent whispers I say in my mind and how they must sound to him. I have gotten into those deep moments and cried out "Lord Use Me!!!!" Only to find out the way I meant it was : "Lord use me but , with conditions like, " I don't want anything major to happen to me or my family or people really close to me" and He says OK "Here walk through this test so that others can see your faith increase and I will get all of the Glory and praise." "UMMMMMM that's not what I meant God." OK let me try this again. "I think I want my boobs done. Lord help me save up enough money so that I can pull these working sand bags up. " God goes I will give you the desires if your heart.  I have a lump ? What I can get a mastectomy or a lumpectomy? UMMMMMMMM I really don't want my boobs done that bad. They can keep sleeping. Here I go again" Lord I am over it I'm not having anymore kids I'm having a hysterectomy!!!!! Lets set the date. ( silent prayer :Lord I don't want to do anything outside of your will, so lets make this happen.) UMMMMMMMMM what do you mean we have to cancel the surgery :??? AWE LAWD REALLY????? I have been told in the past by girlfriends I have a cell phone to God while others have a land line , I have also been told Melanie "Watch your mouth ,You know God moves quick." God has a serious sense of humor. I was talking to my cousin and we were saying don't pray for strength or patience. I know your looking at this strange, but as you can see  God is funny .. It is written patience bringth about tribulation so I shore won't ask for that, and strength I can only imagine that road. SO the next time you pray be ready for what comes your way!!!!!! He is so Awesome .. People look at God as this Big Mean I'm gonna get you sucka kinda presence. When in reality when you look around Laughter is like medicine to our bodies and souls. Love makes us grow... When you can't stand any more Kneel.. He has a perfect plan for your life....... Lets keep walking.....

  1. When something like the Big C happens to you personally, you find you wouldn't even wish this on your worst enemy let alone your friend! I had my Big C scare... Twice... Over 50 polyps removed. People ask you, "How are you staying so strong?" What choice is there really? Then others enter the same playing field as I just had left and then want to know how I found the faith to survive when I am myself a man of little faith. I found God in my own way and was not let down. I'm glad knowing that God is on my side! I'd say to you Melanie, "You'll find the strength you need!" However,I know your faith is as strong as your beautiful and bright soul! My answers found me and we can only hope that when they do, it's the answer we needed. Now for the Nathan you're used to... At least your feet are OK so there is no time off from you enjoying that vast and wonderful shoe collection! You're a breath of fresh air in a world that can be disappointing... You're a fresh flower when all others seem to be wilted... And you're the rainbow that makes the rainstorm all worth while! Keep the love and keep the faith my darling; you will be in my prayers!

    Now to finish with a quote from a favorite Nicki song -say it out loud!
    "I know I'm cute I know I'm fly you ask me why -cause I'm the SHIT!"
