Voices - Do you hear them?

Voices?

Do you have them? Do you hear them? Is it like a web messed up, growing in your head?

Is it your our mind? your conscience? your emotions? your spirit? your will?

Or someone... something ... else

How do you know? How can it be? What separates imagined from what is real... or reality from what is imagined ... if it is only you who hears it?

Did you ever think about that before? No one hears what goes on inside your head? It is a private world....

It can be a place of chaos, torment or delight and adventure.

Does everyone have the ability to hear? or is it those - only - who are aware?

Awareness... God, are you near, is it you that I sometimes hear? Of course it is. I know your voice. I know Jesus and the Holy Spirit... each speak to me in such a distinct way varying shades of the same hue... one light bend into a rainbow of colors... one moon seen from all over the globe?

Do you hear? Did you know? Do you want to hear? Do you want to know?

I do.

So I listen, and I am blessed...



It has not always been this way... voices aimed to control me, take over, speak over, demand, have their own way, hurt, destroy crush, snuff out.... but God would not let them...

They served their purpose, they had their fun, they help as they could and hurt when they did... never really ever in control. Only to the degree I listened, and surrendered... walk closer into God, press in toward Him.... He will calm the voices just as Jesus calmed the stormy sea.

Rest upon His presence...do you hear Him? Rest, re-set, restore.... His mercies are new each morning. And He is sufficient, able, always present.

Voice? Yes...

Weak and Selfish - I am That Girl

The preacher says we are all the body of Christ...that each member is necessary, a part that functions in unison with all others, but God, in this life--in our time spent on earth--in present day local churches, this is not really true. It sounds good, repeated over and over, because the Bible says so and therefore we all should. But churches seek the best, the ones that fit their mold, the ones who meet their mission, the one that helps their goal. They keep track of numbers, saving all the souls, running them through baptism, collecting them in the fold. But those of us with broken parts, not shiny like the rest, we hear what no one else hears, we feel words with our soul, we sense when something isn't right, therefore we get left out in the cold. Who wants to work with such a pain, she is trouble where she goes, she stirs the pot and sifts for truth, she sees the thorns and not the rose. Why can't she just be silent, "if you don't like...

I Want To Be Normal

I want to help others but I can't help myself. I love and know God and trust Him too, but that doesn't stop my brain from being a jumbled mess.  Jumbled thoughts can be pretty! Scattered thoughts keep bombarding me.  I feel like a rattle-head.  I think I wrote once about this before, being a rattle-head . And it was the least-read post...Even I couldn't relate to it much after the episode passed. I have cried out to God for help this morning and for the past two days. I have gone to others for prayer and carefully, with exercising great inner control tried to explain to my family of three teens and my dear husband (I almost didn't want to say dear, oh, how hard it can be on a marriage--to twirl out of control and to not know why or how to make the top stop spinning). I don't know what pushed the top into its first spin.  And that is part of the problem I can't think clearly. I can't remember even simple things.  It is like the f...

I Am In Pain - People Hurt Me - Looking Forward to Death

Leave me alone, I am in pain. I don't need to be around people, I am in pain. People hurt me, I am in pain. I do not get hurt by books, by food, by clouds and rainbows. Or cats, and clothes, or trees that blow in the wind.... No,  just by those I think are friends. People hurt me; they don't understand me. My arms feel so heavy underneath, I know this is the first sign of overload. My heart has a hole, pierced one to many times in life. My eyes are filled with drops of sorrow, sadness and regret. My mouth is tight, clenched, frozen, no words want to go. Why am I different? Why do I have to hurt so much, all the time, so easily, by so many.... So many days, so many people, so many ways. When does my cup of torment forever filled up to be more than "enough"? Is it because I so love You, God, that I am such a target of your enemy? "But you have not endured blood sweat tears," the wise one jeers. "God will never give you more ...
