Today I heard a young mother say because I have no money. I have no hope, no love, no faith. I said you lack all 3 because you have not invested your time to believe.
Today I witnessed an associate say I don't believe in monogamous relationships or God. But I have achieved earning a PHD, and you should also believe in scientific beliefs. I immediately replied why would I debate with a man who invest years of his life to justify what is or not scientifically or spiritually right by using a scenario of death to challenge my faith. Immediately there was a break in our communication lines that I would not deny my spiritual binds!
I witnessed a laborer who surrendered years of his life to a company that did not think twice about referring him to the unemployment line where time is not on anyone's side and the remainder of your wages is suspect and randomly paid, bi-weekly, over one year of time. I spoke cautiously to say "hard times only pass to teach us to survive" where systems controlled by people manipulate our time to recalculate their bottom lines. Don't worry instead pray because your deliverance is next in LINE!
I received a called from a person interested in making fast cash. I simply replied "nothing fast ever last" so manage what you spend, but lack to have.
Today God demanded me to set something's free; a child, friend and family members who refuse to take on certain responsibilities of falling to their knees and praying to God for what they urgently need. And I will not deny it hurt me deep inside to hear the confusion in their voices but faith made sure a lesson was learned today; we can't always save GROWN-UPS from their own choices and responsibilities.
Today I learned the true meaning of the word "No" and how it does not mean that people will lack in finding the answers or resources they seek, it only teaches us that God is the only remedy, not money is what man would like us to believe.
I experienced several disturbing calls today. And some of the callers attempted to challenge my faith. But only from the company I chose to entertain. But this time there was an interruption on the communication line that hindered my "yes" to "no" this time simply because my situation has ran it's course and I have limited resources. So instead I decided to pray for "what is not alive in others. I refuse to let die in me". Thank God my faith is still alive. because if it were not for the time I spent investing listening to everyone else today. I would have missed the treasures buried inside myself; "compassion, courage, love and wisdom" allowed me to identify the difference between shattered faith and what man has no real power to do but hoping what God is really up too. John 7:37-38
