Write a new song, beloveds.

Write a new song, beloveds. Yea, I know, life came and slapped your song. Heartache robbed you of your voice. Despair stole your sweet song.

Anger, snatcher joy, from your lips. Unbelief, stole your peace Apathy,  destroyed your desire to move forward, to keep on keeping on.

Ah, beloveds, I  come sharing good news:

God sees you.  God loves you. God  CARES DEEPLY about you

E EVERYTHING that concerns you  concerns He who loves you.

Ah, beloveds, I have NO idea how much longer I have to be able to encourage and love you. I spent yesterday in the Emergency Room waiting to hear if I had had a second stroke.

I must admit, I wondered if a second stroke would end me or rob from me, the ability to speak, to move, even take the ability to breathe on my own.

Beloveds, as I lay there, I had no fear of death. Truthfully, I didn’t have ONE fear of what could happen, of what could go wrong.

I said, outloud, over and over that I COULD/WOULD do all things through He who loves me. Yes I was content with whatever would come.

I thanked God for walking WITH me.

As I am on blood thinners, I am susceptible for other strokes. When the nurse removed the IV, I bled as if someone had slashed me. Blood went every which way. Ewww!

Beloveds, I’m not afraid to die  I’m terrified of not taking advantage of EVERY second  I have been given.

While you still can.

Sing.

Write.

While you still can.

Run.

Smile.

Work.

While you still can.

Love.

While you still can.

Live.

Laugh.

Beloveds, how could I have known that I would lose the ability to smile. All I can do now is to muster a shaky, crooked something or other.

How come no one ever told me that my mouth would snatch from me the ability to sing badly and lustily. All I can do  now is conjure up a shaky, crooked sounding squeal.

Ah, beloveds, I don’t begrudge you your ability to do these things.  I’m just hoping to encourage/exhort/admonish you to do things while you still can.

Don’t feel sorry for me. I’m so very thankful to be alive. Yea, tho I take exceptionally hard with me EVERYWHERE I go, I go with a song, on my tongue, from my crooked lips straight to God’s Ears!

Ah, beloveds:

Sing.

Write 

Run

Love.

Live.

Laugh.

Rinse.

Repeat…

While you still can. 

going/growing with you,

Why are you in such a hurry, beloveds?

God: Why are you in such a hurry, beloveds?

Us: We’ve places to go, things to do, money to gather, and plans to make.

God: Why the hurry? I made the sunrise to greet you at first light

Us: We don’t have time for the sunrise. Shoot, we barely have time, for the moments, let alone the sunset that will soon interrupt our way.

God: Speaking of sunset, I waited for you there. I was longing to hear about your day. I missed you.

Us: We had no time for chitchat. We barely have time for bedtime preparations!

God: Speaking of bedtime, I couldn’t wait to tell you goodnight.

Us: We are much  too tired. Ask us tomorrow, God. We may find time then

God:

longing to be with you,
God

So, I have good news and WTH news…

So, I have good news and WTH news…

Would you believe I am back at the hospital. I may have had another stroke. I am about to go have an MRI.

SHHHHHHEEEEOOOOT!

Pray for a sista.

Wow, just had my six months Anniversary of the stroke Tuesday.  Fresh hell. This is  NOT funny, Lord.

I’m not freaking out. If I did have a second stroke, I shall keep it pushing. I eat hard for  breakfast.

Be not afraid, beloveds, as God has me, you, and all the hardheaded folk so we are all covered.

Be encouraged.
