I don’t think so!

Give up?

I don’t think so!

Walk away?

I don’t think so!

Fear, the future?

I don’t think so!

Give up, on love?

I don’t think so?

Walk away, from my dreams?

I don’t think so!

Real talk, beloveds, there are times when life, circumstances, situations, folks, dopes, bad things, sad things, mad things, will make you want to up and quit, turn tail and hide, cry uncle or whatever the world will get you out of the present darkness/situation/sickness/sickofthisness.

Yet, at those times, beloved. Yea, especially at those times we MUST, we HAVE to, tell those things to go on ahead and kick some rocks!

We shall NOT, be moved.

We don’t think so!

Ha!

You got this, beloveds.

Yes, it has been hard.

Yes, it has taken forever.

Yes, it feels as though it is taking forever.

Yes, you are tired.

Yes, today looks like the same hell/hard yesterday was.

Yes, the world has laughed in your face.

Yes, your finances have looked at you and said ‘No hope/help here, homie!’.

Yes, your body told you to go ahead and kick rocks, when you tried to jump out of bed with gusto.

Yes, your significant other failed to understand.

Yes, you may have no significant other. In fact, may have no other.

Yes, you did right but wrong went ahead anyway and did you wrong.

Yes, you prayed and nothing seemed to happen.

Yes, you refused to pray and nothing seemed to happen.

Yes, you gave your all and got nothing back.

Yet, ALL those things, beloved, have in fact, been working for your good. They have. EVERY single last one.

EVERY, no, has been leading to your yes. Have to get the No’s outta the way first.

EVERY, stop sign, has been leading you to your destination. Have to have traffic signs to stay out of accidents.

EVERY, lonely night, has been leading you to the friends, family, posse, peers you were meant to have in your lfe.

EVERY, hurtful comment, has been leading you to knowing and experiencing the awesomeness called you. Have to get the hurtful/hateful ones out of your life so you can enjoy your life to the fullest.

EVERY, shout into the void, has been heard.

EVERY, dollar given to help another, has been a blessing and will be sending a blessing right back to you.

EVERY, prayer whispered through tear stained eyes, have been gently received and store away and will water your life with gifts never imagined.

So, to all that has brought you to your knees, thank them! For, they are bringing you that much closer to your miracle/blessing/freedom/health and so many other awesome things.

Go on ahead, beloveds, and tell all that nonsense…

I DON’T THINK SO!

We got this.

God and Life has us all.

Be encouraged.

As, am I.

STILL.
