What Resides?

Wink blink

Fast asleep

No more toss n turn

Sometimes can’t make it 4 my nightly

Felice de noches Cause

I got the lessons learned

Dreams unravel

And add I up the clues

Tiny signs ignored Divine direction still

Just cause I paid my dues

Love is strong

Covers the wrong

Giving mirrors of a better me

My whole book bout it

Yet a stranger pointed it out

That the love is 4me to see

surprising understanding

that’s still unreal to feel

When my tears are caught

And given to God to heal

Let’s be real

energies passing

are going to collide,

but how purely spiritual,

when its only sweetness

that’s left to reside

Floss of Hope

Natalie S. Walker (c) 2011

surrounded and suffocated

drowning and left for dead

 complete confusion and darkness

all the intertwine conflict

 that dominated in her head

surely no day would be better

the tornados would leave no room for the sun

Dorothy with no yellow brick & friends to adventure

the truth outcast alone to wander desolate

this new world taught her not trust anyone

no time to rest from hurricanes and earthquakes

turmoil stayed behind the fake smile encrusted in the core

the body was worn from the battle

the tears were exhausted of falling

and even she was beyond able to take anymore

God couldn’t let his work not turn into the diamond he planned

there was still so much glitter to come through

Her trust, laughter, confidence, belief, needed restoration

had to find just the floss of hope to cling on

and that resting place, the sigh of relief, the turn around was found in you

God met me in my dreams to assure i’d keep hope alive

even showered me with his favor so i could thrive

The enemy never ever meant for me to survive

and i cling to the faith and have the nerve to even strive?

unpredictable eruptions with no action but much to say

being trust worthy is never the normal way

had to learn every smiling face at the airport with a leigh

may only be teethy hot lava just for that day

no every aloha was just a new aloha to me

i’ll still garnish the strength to look to the past to erupt me to my destiny

embracing what i really already knew but didn’t want to see

but some things just have to be to ensure God Gets victory

“Good? Friday??”

GOOD???? FRIDAY?????

There is an abundance of lessons God teaches us during this season.
He teaches About love, forgiveness, faith, redemption and the very nature of the people He created.

This season teaches about human nature, loyalty, etc. , even Peter denied Jesus. BUT just ONE week before, multitudes cheered Him, praised Him hailed Him.it was the next week they jeered Him, beat Him and nailed Him. This the Savior of the world who performed miracles, raised dead, healed, feed multitudes. How can we expect any better?

The  Good Friday experience can be applied to our everyday life.  NOT ONLY for the great price paid for our salvation.  Good Friday was about torturing and killing Jesus, seems bad right? But God had a plan.  He’s always steps ahead!  He knew this had to happen to pay the price of sins for our souls, so his word might be fulfilled. This should make you rest a little easier when you think about your cross. What’s Gods ultimate plan? Isn’t He steps ahead of us?

Good Friday  teaches us about how things may look gloomy, but Gods word is his word! HE never leaves us! There is a Resurrection Morning for the Situations in our life, just gotta make it thru, Friday. Saturday, while Jesus paves the way for what God always wanted!  Since the Bible says Jesus is the author and the finisher of our faith, faith comes to all, our job is having the patience to endure the race !

YUP..  A GOOD FRIDAY !!!

Its our Job to be Job

I equate every relationship I’m in with my relationship with God.  Be it my family, friends, boyfriends… Truly try to treat people the way I would like to be treated.  I always try to approach  each situation with love & attention the way I would my Ultimate relationship with God.

When dealing with God, I always think ”how would I feel if my friend treated me this way”?

When I deal with friends I try to remember I’m God’s hands and feet right here on earth, and he’s using me to show His love.. I TRY to always see things from the full spectrum, try to have understanding & accommodate each persons quirks. That’s how I deal with my relationships… Works great with God we are so kewl!!!!  With people??? …  I’m not so sure!!!

As believers,Its our job to be like Job. Simply put, God put us here to praise him, to trust him, all of us should be able to be tested like Job. No one wants to be tested like Job, but God should be able to brag on each of us.

I know when God told me several years ago to re-read the book of Job, I didn’t want to do it. I didn’t want that test. But God trusted me, and its hard, but I think of it like this. If I was in a camp of my enemies & couldn’t depend on 1 friend, how would I feel?
How would I feel if I bragged bout my friend, to my enemy who taunted and laughed at me,& I stood my ground saying, “nope, my friend is trust worthy” and then my friend wasn’t?… My friend left me right there for the enemy to laugh at me! I just couldn’t do that to God…

Throughout all your life, all u have is you. Your word. If you can’t be down for God then who? Can’t be down for friends then who? Can’t be honest with yourself and God then what?

Really Job should be ALL of us!!! The enemy should never even have that discussion with God. Ask yourself though, can you be trusted like Job?

Make shoes for home

Very often Christians will use the term “enlarge my territory” asking God to send more people for them to minister to in what ever area their talent.  Truth is, in my opinion this is so unnecessary.  Not that you shouldn’t want to reach as many people as possible, it really is noble.  But, fact is, when you bless one person, you really bless many often without knowing how many people you bless.  Leaving your “residue of blessings”  even sometimes curses depending on your actions, on the lives you touch.

That person you bless, will very often take that blessing in their life and use it to bless someone else.  So you REALLY ARE blessing many.. AND your territory REALLY IS ENLARGED!.. WAY LARGER THAN YOU THINK..

 

So every person close to you should be your biggest most important ministry.  The people around you, should be the ones who count.  The ones you worry about, spend time on, minister to and bless, because they will carry the blessing that you wanted to get across in a much more intimate and powerful way!

Shoe makers make shoes for home!!

“N’sight To See”,  The show, The Book… and so much more because eyes have not seen!

For Give Me!

The Bible mentions forgiveness many times.. in many ways.  God asks us 1) to Forgive our bro/sis trespasses against us, 2) to humble ourselves and ask God to forgive our Sins.  He mentions in the word, that he is a forgiving God.  That His Grace and mercy will cover a multitude of sins.  He tells us that if we Humble ourselves, turn from our wicked ways he will heal the land!

 To humble ourselves first we must deal with ourselves, be honest with us.. we have to at least look at who really are with ourselves, leave the press agent for the press release.. but with you  and God, dig deep deal with all the ugly, even if u don’t want to.. deal with whatever issue it is you have going on.. whatever sin.

Once you have the courage to face what’s you, we all have ugly, to turn from our wicked ways, we have to ask God to forgive us of our sins.  We have to see what we’ve done acknowledge it and ask God to forgive it, and THEN  WE  also  HAVE  TO  forgive ourselves..

The victory comes in the healing of the land.. or the healing of you!  You may have some outward success that wont last, but until you humble yourself, by actually seeing what you’ve done, ask God to forgive you of what you’ve done.. you wont have true victory..

OH BUT WHEN  YOU DO.. THATS WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND…FATHER,  FOR….. GIVE…….ME!

When you can say it from the heart, mean it, and know, that not only are you clearing yourself of what God doesn’t like, but opening yourself to his blessing, what HE wants for your life..

Jesus said “For give them father for they know not what they do” He was asking God to cover our sins with mercy and Grace, but he was also asking God . to .. “GIVE” !  Great thing is.. he didn’t say what he was giving.. so when Jesus was on that Cross pleading our cause, our “Give” section was open to the need that God would see fit for our individual lives, for such a time as this!~NSW

FATHER    FOR……….GIVE……….ME!!!~ Natalie S. Walker

 (and thank you for this sight.. Ha, u woke me up with this 12 yrs ago, I finally get this N’sight thing! thank You)

 

Foundations

What a beautiful house you have!  I love the way you decorated.  Oh thank you, thank you, i was torn between colors, it took us years to decide how to build the kitchen..

 A Beautiful house,… rare that anyone ever thinks about what’s supporting all that beauty.  The ugly cement, in the dark, proudly doing its job without recognition.  The pillars that help hold up the roof for covering, the floor,the walls and fixtures.

 Much like a house, its often we have people in our lives who are our foundations.  Proud to do their job, supporting us so we can do what we need to, never needing or expecting to be seen or recognized.  But it is up to us, who benefit from being supported to remember.  We have to remember to treat our foundation for termites and the wear and tear of the elements pounded from time! Surely, the termites will come… After all, it’s easy to destroy a beautiful house, if you destroy the foundation.  So while your doing the necessary remodeling, cleaning, dusting, make sure you check your foundation so you know if it can still support the Beauty!

There’s a Storm out

When they would sing this song, they never finished the sentence! They always seem to rush to the next line.

 “There’s a storm out, over the ocean, and its movin dis ole way,

if ur souls not, anchored in Jesus, you will surely, drift away”

 Well i was so busy laughing at the southern accents and the chopped phrasing, not to mention the mandatory butt fanning & famous quartet bounce, I never paid attention to the sheer wisdom of the simple words.

 Life shows us who we are by how we handle the storms.  All the songs we sing in church, all the scriptures we read, all the sermon and word we hear, means nothing if we don’t apply it to our lives.  I look and observe the lives of people around me, when crisis hit, and how they handle the situation.  I also analyze how I react when storms come my way.  I find that all the word, all the songs, all the prayers, became real in my life!  When the storms came, I had to activate, I had to show and prove.  Had to dig my feet down, to stand as the wind moved me to-and fro.. had to still keep my Ground..

Now.. I sing with all sincerity and understand every line!

“There’s a storm out, over the ocean,

and its movin dis ole way,

if ur souls not, anchored in Jesus,

YOU WILL SURELY DRIFT AWAY!”

 Build your real relationship with God, really mean what u sing/speak/pray, so when trouble does come, your anchored, and won’t drift away!

Beautiful
