Life’s New Perspective …
Trust In The Master With All Your Heart …
(Updating the previous post.)
I am not ashamed of quoting the Bible because I am watching it coming to pass exactly as it is written. Thus, even if at first sight readers turn away from what I share, eventually more and more writings on the same vein shall flood the Internet for the Almighty Creator of everything in existence aims to restore His creation, including us human beings to the original intent for its creation. Such is my legacy for 2023 expressed in Proverbs 3.
The Almighty Creator Of Everything In Existence’s Thoughts Toward Us …
His own Word, written not only in the Bible but also in the heart of His selected human beings shows what an immense care He has for His whole creation, and especially for each one of us people individually.
- He cares for us, has a plan for us, will not forsake us, and wants us to spend eternity with Him!
- In this post He compels the writer to express the complete experience of the immensity of His love and care for us.
Unexpected Developments …
Nothing is happening the way I had in mind. The Master is turning mourning to Joy as per Jeremiah 31, but? So far, I myself have not quite got much of an idea anymore of how it is all going to happen. On waking up this morning I found myself reflecting on Mike & Diana’s short visit yesterday afternoon. While fixing my 3-wave radio I began to explain my reason for the radio. Of course, Diana made fun of my reasoning which made me realize that she made sense.

What Makes Sense? …
Why am I so apprehensive about socializing? Heavy, heavy thinking. Perhaps because it seems to me that we are all in a futile attempt to evade what is the purpose for our lives. We stick to our present innated beliefs come hail, rain or snow. I do see the necessity to take a break from the toll of the daily difficulties of life, but? It’s taking me a long time to grasp and adapt wisely.

Reflecting …
I thought about it all day. Thinking about all the wonderful uplifting expressions we use to convey our beliefs and feelings. Always trying to communicate, to express the best or even the worst of our thoughts and feelings about any subject. I was thinking about the futility about it all yet, what about my convictions, my testimony seems so out of place. That was in my mind when I went to bed.
The Dream …
Strange moment: I dreamed that I had died. I watched what I thought to be a funeral of myself. I saw a dirt road. I knew it was my funeral on the way to the cemetery, but it looked like I was anonymous. No one to honor me. On waking up or perhaps I was still dreaming, I felt like dead. I set my glasses on, recorded the time, turned to the tablet, resumed my reading. Around 5 am I got up. Began to prepare to take a shower. Then, I found myself sitting down totally despondent in a fog. I stumbled on to bed, drifted to sound sleep until 8:30 am.

- One more 7th Day of Rest has come & gone!
- I remain resting.

What Was That Dream About? …
Meaning of dream? Eventually I began to search for it. It took a couple of days, but I can now assess that it has to do with reconsidering my present beyond my past. My present life represents the super abundance promised to me for a long time. I had almost despaired, then? A drastic turn of events: ‘Return to the USA to reestablish your relationship with your children.’ Within 6 weeks I returned to the USA after 13 years residing in Jordan in the Middle East.
Magical Encounter …
No words to describe the magic to withhold my Diana’s beautiful smiling face. To feel the physical impact of the embrace is quite fresh as is happening now. Eight months have passed. Funny thing: to watch my funeral exactly one day past my 8th month since that memorable encounter when I arrived in the USA on November 21, 2022.
My Convictions Testing Grounds. …
Do I give them up to fit in this amazing turn of events? That’s what has been weighting me down. And that’s what the dream was about. To give up my convictions is out of the question. My life is significant to the Almighty Creator of my being.
Indeed! He Has Lifted Me Up. He Has Made My Life Significant for a Worthy Purpose …
Well? In the last few days, I have done a lot of thinking about my personal relationship with the Almighty Creator of my being. He has been leading me all the way despite my willful ways. He has never let me down even in the worst moments of my life. He has transformed me from a forsaken woman into a woman with a purpose.
- Nonetheless, I had a lot of hidden prejudices about the way people act or live out what I considered to be moral or proper.
- But I tried to ignore my feelings, not realizing how much the matter was weighting on me until yesterday.
The Email That Set Me Free …
I don’t remember Pat ever forwarded anything to me but yesterday she forwarded me a link without any explanation. I called her to confirm that it was her email. She confirmed it. I clicked. Wow! All my prejudices came tumbling down, down all the way buried, gone to return no more eternally! An amazing musical display. The song? You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban. The dancers. The beautiful voices. Young people, tattoos and all, such genuineness, such love and gratitude addressed to the Loving Almighty Creator of our beings!
Quote:
Faith, hope, love abide, faith—conviction and belief respecting man’s relation to God and divine things; hope—joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love—true affection for God and man, growing out of God’s love for and in us, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13.
Ready Again To Begin Anew. New Life. Afresh. Anew, …
Yes indeed! Anew, afresh, completely free of all prejudices. Totally unexpected development. Far above whatever I had imagined.
Until the next post, lov to all.
