” Good morning world, as I blend my A Daily Celebration journal reflection in with the adjoining scripture please read (Romans 8:28) This is the guiding light and life changing verse that I have researched and picked to highlight my blog post today. Likewise, please enjoy my coordinating original Merry Mary blog thought that ties the scripture into my new A DAILY CELEBRATION book/journal quote which is as follows… (As you know as time fly’s by, you will either be at the beginning, middle, or the end of the line. So never knowing if you are at the beginning, the middle, or the end of things if you skip a beat to keep going…. you just need to catch up. Then from the beginning even though you keep running out of time, by appreciating the next beat of your heart, you will like the middle part of your life. So, keeping up with your desires, goals, plans, dreams, also hopes… as long as you keep going forward, you will know you are not out of time. Then never being afraid of your beginning, middle, or the ending of things you will always be able to look forward to better times. Next knowing that you will never be running out of time. You won’t ever lose your mind! And better yet you won’t ever have to be afraid that one day or night that you will be left behind. Therefore, to never be left behind you need to remember who has given you the beats of your heart. Likewise you need to remember who has given you your starts, and middles. Next you need to remember who will be there for you in the end. So, to catch up, and to go in the right direction you need to realize that all of your starts, and middles come from the beats of your heart. And your heart and starts come from Jesus Christ. That’s why, you need to realize when you have Jesus Christ in your life even though Satan will try to take away the nice things in your sight there is a way to survive the hard times. And to survive Satan’s hard times just remember the best is yet to arrive. Likewise, remember that all things will work for good for those who trust and love the Lord day and night. That means, from the beginning, and middle of things, to the Never Ending… not knowing where you are on your tombstone line. When you know Jesus Christ, your soul will never run out of time. Likewise, you will never lose your mind, and better yet, your soul will never be left behind! Bottom line, at the beginning, middle and end of your life… knowing the best has yet to arrive. When you keep looking for the bright side. At the beginning, middle and end of life you will realize all things work for good for those who love and trust the Lord Jesus Christ. Now following along with that happily ever after theme what comes to you mind when I write the words from the beginning to the never ending. Next thinking that MIDDLE OF THE LINE way with some of you not believing there is a HAPPY ENDING coming TODAY. Still thinking about ONCE UPON A TIME… Once more knowing that there is only one way for things to work together for good in your life. As, we begin AGAIN where it all started you need to know that ONCE UPON A TIME, I was once a little girl. So not knowing your life story ……I thought I would share some thoughts about my life. And with my birthday on the horizon….The story goes that once upon a time there was a little girl who loved wearing buttons, also bows. And being a little girl with playful curls, who also adored taking off her bows as she let her hair blow in the breeze. With her spending all her summertime’s living at a magical place called Cake-Lake. Merrily from the First second that the last school bell finished ringing, and the house in town was shut down. She loved that all her best memories in life circled around moving back to the delightful lake on summer break. Therefore, closing one door in her HELLISH SCHOOL GIRL REALITY. While opening up another window into DELIGHTFUL CHILDHOOD’S FANTASY….. Everyday living somewhere IN-BETWEEN THE LINES OF LIFE…… everything for the little nice girl was Sublime! And as, she was having picnics every day, while making sandcastles on the ground, running around chasing fireflies…… her ONCE UPON A TIME life was great! Next as she Daily enjoyed the enchanted waterfall sounds things were wonderful all around. That means, living in cabin number 30 playing, living, and eating homemade ice cream, while enjoying her mother’s homemade sweet treats and cakes….. Her life was delightful in every way. That’s why, every hour playing with fairies, and catching fireflies she loved the sights she viewed, and the peace and quiet that she found at the lake. She, furthermore, adored the delightful sounds she heard, as the ducks quacked, and the singing crickets played peek-a-boo. Likewise, she loved seeing the sun frolic in the leaves of the old tall oak trees too. Magically every summer hour searching for rainbows, and daydreaming on the pier’s ledge, while making memories that kept her off of REALITIES CLIFFS EDGE! HER LAKE was a mystic escape that kept her sane! And as, she dreamed about what was yet to be….as her ONCE UPON A TIME STARTED her HAPPILY EVER AFTER. Without her knowing what she was doing, LIVING IN BETWEEN THE LINES OF LIFE WRITING HER STORY. The little girl was searching for her HAPPILY EVER AFTER in her minds Secret Place. So, living in her Fantasy THAT WAS FAST CLASHING WITH HER REALITY…The little girl was patiently waiting every-day for her Dreams-to-Come-True at Cake-Lake. Yes Indeed, WITH TIME BEING HER FRIEND Day and night. That was a special story book time in her life. And as, the little girl was serenaded by bull frogs at night, LIVING IN-BETWEEN THE LINES OF LIFE…she really loved spending her days making Water Lilly pad hats, fishing, and drinking milkshakes with her friends in her special lake place! Then Sweetly day dreaming, while sitting next to the frogs on the log, playing in the rain, always walking barefoot feeling no pain, ONCE UPON A TIME LIFE was just great! But WAIT!! THINGS COULD NOT STAY THAT WAY. BECAUSE THAT WAS A FANTASY! SADLY, THAT MEANS NOBODY GETS TO BE A CHILD IN THE STORY FOR LONG….. SINCE WE ALL HAVE TO FACE REALITY! So miserably in her Summertime-Story EVERYTHING HAD TO GO AWAY. Because like everybody else in life…..the nice, girl with her button and bows, was forced to grow up…. as her HEART and body AGED. That’s why with some of you seeing your happiness evaporating since your Child Inside seems to have run away. Questioning if Happiness will ever stay. That means, after seeing many things leaving, including her mother flying away to Heaven. And her daddy dying inside, while her sister was hiding behind the door crying…..LIKE YOU….The little girl had to say Goodbye to her great summer days at the lake. And FACING REALITY….her childhood evaporated OVER NIGHT, as she likewise had to leave her great memories and HER LAKE behind. AND THAT MADE HER SAD INSIDE! Because like everybody else WITH A BROKNE HEART who has watched CHILDHOOD DEPART ALSO Demise and EVAPORATE RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEIR EYES, nobody likes to WATCH THEIR INNOCENCE DIE….And what was even worse than seeing CHILDHOOD DIE, as she started LIVING IN BETWEEN THE DOTS, DASHES AND LINES OF LIFE, she found herself LOST IN TIME. And with TIME NO LONGER BEING HER FRIEND. WHILE BEGGING FOR THE GOOD TIMES TO COME BACK AGAIN. On the day and night that she realized CHILDHOOD DIED, the little girl likewise forgot how to SMILE. And no longer able to DREAM, HOPE OR COPE SHE ALSO FORGOT HOW TO PLAY….Bottom line, putting CHILDHOOD AWAY on the same day that HER SMILE and HAPPINESS EVAPORATED. That’s when the little girl learned how to CRY! And as, she likewise forgot how to have fun underneath the sun, sadly her HAPPILY EVER AFTER seemed extremely far away….. Because, LEAVING ONCE UPON A TIME BEHIND….While CRYING HER DAYS AWAY…..THE LITTLE GIRL REALIZED IN EVERY WAY ON THE DAY……, OR WAS IT A NIGHT, WHEN HER SMILE DIED THAT IT WAS GOING TO BE VERY HARD TO SURVIVE THE IN-BETWEEN LINES OF LIFE! And AFTER LOSING HER WILL TO SURVIVE OR DREAM. She likewise realized that Her PEACE of mind was going to be very hard to find! So, searching for a HAPPILY EVER AFTER….. Where only PAIN REMAINED…With the GOOD TIMES in her childhood NEVER COMING BACK AGAIN. After she left Cake Lake’s summertime waves behind, with her future going off track. Her SAFE PLACE seemed to be very far away……BOTTOM LINE HAPPILY EVER AFTER had become a frightening part of ONCE UPON A TIME……… Now I am wondering have you ever felt that hopeless way? Likewise, have you ever felt like you are running out of time? Have you ever felt like you are losing your mind! And worse yet are you afraid that one day you will be left behind? Well to catch up, and to go in the right direction you need to realize when you have Jesus Christ in your life that all things will work for good for those who trust and love the Lord Day and night. That means, from the beginning to the never ending when you know Jesus Christ, you will never run out of time. Likewise, you will never lose your mind, and better yet, you will never be left behind! And just like that this thought will be continued one more time…………… So, wondering how things in this or any life story will ever work together for good……. I am now I am going to leave you cliff hanging WHILE waiting for more of the tale to tell… And tomorrow I will finish this Summertime-Story that’s about what WAITS IN-BETWEEN THE DOTS, DASHES AND LINES as well. But in the meantime….wanting things to work out for your good I wonder. Have you ever felt the same way?
