Out My Mind

DISCLAIMER: This morning I will be speaking to you about somethings that I am thinking on. If you do not desire to read, because there will not be a Bible verse, I understand....


Why do you think the topic of relationship/marriage seems to be the issue often spoken, when it comes to us humans? Why is it most men and women, nowadays, are ONLY into that collector's frame of mind? Expending energy just to have an individual sitting around, waiting to be included within whatever moment of life the collector deems fit. What really happened to "Love"? Oh, I think this one is about to get dicey......

These ponderings come about because I had a thought came about, last night, that seriously paralyzed me for about as long as the thought rested with my mental ability to comprehend it. Yes, the thought was this, "Could everyone Love each other; to be of a giving, submitted heart; to be of service to another, and care deeply about them, without EVER seeking the opportunity to expect something in return"? Dangerous thing to ponder! Because if I answer 'Yes', then I most certainly have to be included within the "everyone" spoken about in the question. Again, dangerous to ponder. If I answer no, then the question raises the banner, "What does God do for you?" This is what happens to individuals who abstain from clouding their minds with drink, drugs, sex, and any other agent used to numb the recognition of our 'can get deep' parts of the mind. Because this kind of stuff is difficult to deal with. This learning to "Deny self" aspect of life more abundantly... LOL

Too often, I think, we, as humans, allow for "it just happens" to walk along side us, and then will enjoy when "it just happens" agrees to stand and take the blame for what we did. What we knew all along we WANTED to do. This is where it gets a bit dicey, for I am about to express an action I have been viewing and hearing about lately. My sisters, if you know that the dude is no good for you, why did you allow for this dude to 'raw dog': so now you pregnant? I ask due to the complaining you exhibit about his behavior. But, you know as well as everybody that sees you, this is the same dude you used to be in the middle of the mall, sanctuary, street, yard, livingroom, and in the middle of your dreams ARGUING with. Why you complaining about him, now? I give my thought on the observation. You WANTED him MORE than you wanted to DENY that he wasn't GOOD for you. So, "it just happened". If you start being truthful, with yourself, then you might just have that cloud taken away so you can SEE clearly: and make a few decisions based on this type of pondering I am performing. Cause you can ponder like this.

Now, my brother, why is it you seem to be caught up in this world's retelling of who a 'Man' should be? Yup, this question is based on observation as well. First, and foremost, could this way you conduct yourself (the brother that is feeling a tad bit offended at the question IS the brother I am directing this pondering at) be due to the fact that you lack confidence in yourself? Could it be because you did not desire to be ridiculed by others, who display such actions quite regularly? Maybe it is due to the lack of resolve you know you operate with? Can I tell you what my thought is, based on viewing you, and those just like you; because y'all seem to run in packs? My thought is that the man that was responsible for molding and shaping you failed you. Yes, it is quite simple. We are men. We do not overcomplicate things. Now, if you tell me that the man, who was responsible for molding and shaping you, was present in your life; plus he did play an active role in the molding and shaping of you.... well then, I would think you are displaying ignorant behavior just for the sake of being ignorant, and that, my brother, could be viewed as a form of terrorism. Oh yes it could!!! Why would you actively engage in the destruction of NOT ONLY your own character, but the character and memory of the man that took the time to mold and shape you. And, not to mention the destruction and carnage you leave behind in the beds and minds of women; our sisters, and future mothers of our children. But hey! None of that means anything to you because this is what the world says you are to do. Right? You're clouded. Allow that cloud to be taken away, so you can get to some ponderings too. Yup, you can ponder like this as well...

I could keep going, but to a degree it would not be of service to any of you who took the time to read this far. Most men enjoy wrapping others in a clock of verbage; it makes the man "feel" important, noticed, validated (because so many men are not validated), and respected. See, I know all of that about myself. I get all of that, already. No, I do not have a wife or children. I am a child of God!!! He assures me that all of those adjectives apply to me no matter what I go through or are facing. Therefore I would not care to saddle anyone else with the mindset that I am in "need" of those adjectives. This presentation was more for you all to see that the freedom one has, when walking behind Christ Jesus: to accomplish the will of God, will cause that simple act of allowing "it just happened" to not walk along side you. Because you will know that everything has to be performed "on purpose". Walk with purpose......
