God loves us.
Period.
Not just when we are good.
Not just when things are sunshine and rainbows.
Folk judge God, ofttimes by what they have or don’t have.
I have to admit I used to judge God based upon the results of my prayers. A check mark, to the good, for answered ones. I check on the ‘He didn’t’ row, for the nos or silent ones.
A check mark when things went well. A check mark when things went downhill.
A check mark when I got praise at work. A check mark when work was being too worky.
I sowwy, God. That was NOT fair of me.
God doesn’t owe me a thing. God does NOT have to do a blessed thing for me. God is NOT My Consierge. SMH. I sowwy, Father. You deserved better.
I hate that churches now tie God’s Prosperity to how much we give, serve, do. God loves and will do simply because He loves us and said He would. Period. End of story.
I have let God off the hook.
I have also let folk off the hook. No one owes me anything. I appreciate what folks choose to send my way. If not, I love them because I love. Period. End of story.
I am also learning not to judge Life and The Universe by outcomes. Just because things don’t turn out like I think they should, does NOT mean I am on the wrong track.
We rarely see the big picture. We are too busy fussing over the close ups!….hahahahahaha!
I’m also trying not to judge ME, beloveds, based upon my outcomes. I can be a tough crowd. I am trying not be such a tough critic. Ow, Cassandra! Back up off yourself!
I am trying to be good to me. No matter the outcome. You do the same, beloveds. You owe yourself better.
asking for A Friend,

#YourLifeMattersToMe
Note: I have been beating myself up something terrible the past few days because of a lack of results. I sowwy, Cassandra. I am trying to do better. SMH. Be encouraged. Stop giving yourself such a hard time. Things are as they should be. Asking for A Friend.
One step.
One step.
One step.
You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on beingβ¦YOU!

I seem to have so many prayers that have gone unanswered. They are piling up that I just cant pray and ask God anymore

I hear you. Be encouraged, my friend. Don’t stop praying. Don’t stop believing. The only way you lose is when YOU turn loose of your prayers and dreams.

I still pray but mostly for others. I don’t ask God for myself. I give thanks. That’s it.
