8 For my thoughts
are not your thought,
neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
9 For as the heavens
are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways,
and my
thoughts than your thoughts.
Believe in God;
believe that he is, and that he created all things, both in heaven and in
earth; believe that he has all wisdom, and all power, both in heaven and in
earth; believe that man doth not comprehend all the things which the Lord can
comprehend.
For unto us a child
is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The
everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.
How? When
6/15/08
To face a fear so
long a threat
To not fear the hurt
they gave
To break the chains
of fear they hold
To breathe free,
feel calm, stay safe.
I wish I knew how
not to fear
To believe no harm
can be done
That the monsters of
my past are dead
To believe that
threat is gone.
Somehow he must
become a face
Not one I've known
for years
Somehow the threat
must empty out
Somehow lay rest
these fears.
They say he cannot
hurt me
Though still he yet
may try
They say I must just
forward face
And leave these
fears to die?
How?
But perhaps 'how?'
is the wrong question - Better still is 'When'.
<Ralph
Marston>
When
the
fears that hold you back
When your reasons to move forward outweigh your excuses for staying put, you
will move forward.
…
…
…
When you are ready, life is here to fully live.
Choose it, and now is when.
Ralph Marston
The truth is not
worrying so much about the how. The Lord will provide what is needed if we stay
in tune with Him. He will also manage the speed. More often than not, in my
efforts with the ultimate Counselor (see Isaiah 9:6) He has said 'not yet' more
than He has said 'time to move on'. Whatever the timing is, when you are ready,
the way will be there.
