I'mma care for you...
when one looks beyond the physical and material, is where one has found gold that only can be seen when it is dug deeper. there is no shortcut to love, nor any kind of goodness there is. everything takes time and process to bloom into all kinds of potential that life can churn out to be, leading to sure permanence and nothing less.

Say what?
have always stressed how communication is key to all relationships. a learning process yes, but definitely a needful one as it sweetens the rough areas, and gives security to the shaky moments. and as two are brutally honest to who they really are, love cannot help but multiply, trust, deeply established, and grace, restfully increases. xxx

Lead me on...
it is mid way through january two fiddeen, and i cannot phantom the amount of situations that are a tad close to home. instead of asking why which one shall not even entertain, out of the dark we will still run. nothing can stop His irrevocable grace and plans He has for each and everyone of us. it has always been plan A all along. i know being kept in the palm of His hand is where we find shelter and protection like no other. and in the entire valley itself is where we find our greatest victory, propelling us to place higher than before. grace does not just want portions of our trust to be fulfilled, He is wildly obsessed with the wholeness of everything that concerns us. there is simply no other shepherd such as He...

Steadfast & Unafraid...
even in the midst of the storm, i can still feel His grace ever so strongly. surely He is in the midst, right where the mayhem is situated at. it is strange that what i am use to in a family setting is stretched and positioned in different areas compared to the usual sole roof we were accustomed to since birth.
"I am the Lord your God, I go before you now
I stand beside you, I’m all around you
Though you feel I’m far away, I’m closer than your breath
I am with you, more than you know
I am the Lord your peace, no evil will conquer you
Steady now your heart and mind, come into My rest
Oh, let your faith arise, lift up your weary head
I am with you wherever you go
Come to Me, I’m all you need.
Come to Me, I’m everything
Come to Me, I’m all you need.
Come to Me, I’m your everything
I am your anchor, in the wind and the waves
I am your steadfast, so don’t be afraid
Though your heart and flesh may fail you, I’m your faithful strength
I am with you wherever you go
Don’t look to the right or to the left but keep your eyes on Me
You will not be shaken, you will not be moved
I am the hand to hold, I am the truth, I am the way
Just come to Me, come to Me, cause I’m all that you need."
yes, life has taken it's rightful course in various stages from being a grandparent, parent, fiancé, long term relationship and a fresh one. what is hitting me like a big red bus is the well being of the littlest one. though fully legal, to me S will always that munkin in the punkin patch getup wearing the biggest smile one can live for.
seeing her going through one of her toughest period of her life makes me see her in a greater light than i have previously. surely He has had her all along, especially in the area of worthship and growth of a wog. she has turned out far better than imagined, and i cannot be anymore proud. indeed her 120% is brewing presently as one declares and believes.
here's to being marveled while rested. He shall have His will done here and now, as it is where J is sitted. my vision for S has always been one where her voice will spread out through the crowds and into the heavens. surely His grace is on it, and the reality of it all is not too far off.
for now i am coming to Him.
"I am the Lord your God, I go before you now
I stand beside you, I’m all around you
Though you feel I’m far away, I’m closer than your breath
I am with you, more than you know
I am the Lord your peace, no evil will conquer you
Steady now your heart and mind, come into My rest
Oh, let your faith arise, lift up your weary head
I am with you wherever you go
Come to Me, I’m all you need.
Come to Me, I’m everything
Come to Me, I’m all you need.
Come to Me, I’m your everything
I am your anchor, in the wind and the waves
I am your steadfast, so don’t be afraid
Though your heart and flesh may fail you, I’m your faithful strength

You will not be shaken, you will not be moved
I am the hand to hold, I am the truth, I am the way
Just come to Me, come to Me, cause I’m all that you need."

The biblical meaning of the word "restoration" is to receive back more than has been lost to the point where the final state is greater than the original condition. The main point is that someone or something is improved beyond measure.
Unlike the regular dictionary meaning of "restoration," which is to return something back to its original condition, the biblical definition of the word has greater connotations that go above and beyond the typical everyday usage. Repeatedly throughout the Bible, God blesses people for their faith and hardships by making up for their losses and giving them more than they previously had before.

"And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you."
1 Peter 5:10 (ESV)
“I will restore to you the years the swarming locust has eaten . . . you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied” Joel 2:25-26 (ESV)
“I will restore to you the years the swarming locust has eaten . . . you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied” Joel 2:25-26 (ESV)
Here's to receiving the reward.
Here's to being made whole.
Here's to being made secured.
And here's to being at peace with.
This multifaceted promises addresses every aspect of our lives
-- mental, physical, emotional and spirtual.
On earth there are no equivalent replacements for our deepest losses. But God promises us this: “I will restore.” That is our hope as His children. In confidence we can move forward even with crushed hearts and empty hands. One day we’ll walk through heaven’s gates, the light of God’s glory will envelop us, and our restoration will be complete.

Eye See...
i am all for plastic as my close ones would know... not to a point where you stand out for the wrong reasons obviously... but my inclination to this world of human modification has grown to a point where i have been considering doing some slight alterations myself. research after research, i am just a clinic or flight away, and within the two weeks i will permanently be gifted with what i desired all along. however, with the concerns of some, will consider the non-abrasive method before embarking on my intentions. here goes...
