Loud

I just got home and sat down, and just got really sad inside. nothing is going on to be “sad” about but in processing why I feel like this….

Sometimes, the noise of this world just gets really “loud”–i don’t know what other word to describe that inside cringe to how busy and fast pace “life” has become. “click here”…”come here”…”show up at this time”…”wake up at this time”. We as humans have conditioned ourselves to a system rather than relationship. We are HERE to relate with one another, that is what “relationship” means.

Agendas/Motives are conditional expectations placed upon someone else with or without their knowledge. A statement I heard a year ago– “your inbox is only full of people trying to put you in their schedule”. Control is a form of manipulation that abuses someone else’s schedule. It is a distraction to what they are here TO DO. To join “your thing” I am sacrificing my time, or even “my thing”….

Jeremiah 23:33: Suppose one of the people or one of the prophets or priests asks you, ‘What prophecy has the LORD burdened you with now?’ You must reply, ‘You are the burden! The LORD says he will abandon you!’ — what a harsh word to tell people right? that isn’t loving? I laughed when I read this verse…because sometimes a human can feel the weight of the world trying to fit into it. And it’s okay to actually shut the world down and love yourself and love what makes you happy.

These times are very hard to navigate…but remember the scripture above, and then also remember to cast your burdens to the Lord, for HE cares for YOU. Just as the birds in the air, and the fish in the water, they know not to “want” because they DON’T LACK what they NEED. Take a deep breath in, and go put our bare feet in the dirt tomorrow…be grateful for the air we breathe, and the ground to walk on…at minimal. and we, together, can begin again tomorrow., being refreshed…ready to take on the “schedule” with an open heart and a sound mind. I’m alive. I’m here. Keep going.

Maybe this is for you…maybe this is for me…

Either way–I am heavy in my heart and felt to share.
