Grieving for the CHILDREN & the NEED for the God-Fix
By Lynn Suzanne (08/05/07)
Life in our household is peaceful and calm and that amazes me because my family is enduring a multitude of insane issues that would likely exhaust even the best of fallible humans. I receive strength from the simplest pleasures and because I am willing to be willing those blessings keep coming throughout each and every day.
I am living through honest grieving . . . the sort of grieving that takes my breath away. The kind of grief that seems like the steepest incline that has been well oiled. Just when I think I have made it to the top another incline is revealed. I have also learned that God's version of breaks and vacations are not what we fallible humans have concocted in our minds. Instead of the wanted, "Take a break Lynn" I hear, "Well, that is great you were able to make it this far and now I am going to place ten more pounds on your back and I need you to keep moving after you rest for a few minutes." Hmmm . . . I really grumble at God for this and yet the feeling of victory when I reach the next summit is indescribable. So, I guess He does know better than me.
And despite the wicked stabs of jagged thoughts and feelings that course in my veins as I keep climbing, I am able to hear God in a way that is beyond breathtaking. And I am grateful that I am in His care.
I am learning so much about the fallible human as we dodge the landmines of tragedy, abuse, addiction, mental illness, and confusion. The lies are all around us distort the truth and as a result there is little clarity in what we are told, what we hear, and what we think we know. Because the world is so unbelievably upside-down and inside-out nuts in this time and place, I honestly would not know how to manage this burden if I didn't have my angels and the Holy Spirit riding on my shoulder. Without them I surely would be lost.
The lessons I am learning during this excruciating time in my life is parallel to the lessons my fellow brethren and I should be learning about the virus of apathy and depravity crossing the globe.
I am but one mother amongst millions, one wife amongst multitudes, one woman amidst my sisters, and one fallible human of a planet that is witnessing the destruction and fracturing of the future generation.
It is time for us to wake up, get up, and shake up what is stealing our souls without so much as a struggle. I know there are others out there who understand what is at stake; others who get that the synergism of evil is gobbling us up like a bottomless pit. I just need to find a way to reach them.
And it is imperative that we each get over the fear of reprisal and activate the willingness to be willing to ask for the God-Fix to begin the greatest revival in the history of mankind.
Blessings
