The Joy of Being a Grandpa

 

The Joy of Being a Grandpa

     I would have never thought or guessed the little ones coming back to my house could bring me such eluviation.  Something inside me moves.  A giving way, an undercurrent that frees my soul about my members.  Silliness gains ground and erupts to the top.  Smiling and gazing, I make funny noises just to see that little one smile.  “Does she follow my thoughts?” I ask myself.  Being a bit over a year and a half, she makes all the right faces just limited in words.  Does not matter.  Our communication goes on with laughter and gestures about the dining room table.

     We are free when the Master of the house has so ordained the time.  I have subjected this abode to His guiding hand.  I work hard in vigilance not to push against Him.  I wait for the exact time to follow His lead into action.

     So we party!  Using materials here in fluidity.  Plans come and then change but we don’t pressure our wills in contrary.  Conflicts I have not known for a while and that is good for the little ones don’t need to see souls bleed.

     Joy is promised.  For the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy…  If I am faithful to walk in love, He sends the joy.

God's Successive Revelations

  God’s Successive Revelations Search Me diligently, and I will reveal Myself to you.      Yah, that sound like something God would say.   I understand He revealed the Trinity to us.   I plead ignorance in Church history.   Some theologians, perhaps 400 A.D. came upon this gem that we hold true today.   The idea of the rapture is new on the Church radar.   Late 1800’s?      What if God revealed His truth to His people in time?   Surely, Solomon was the wisest man in his day, but did he know about Pentecost?   Daniel, the far seer, was only shown glimpses.   What did he know of Peter and miracles in the temple?   A certain king discovered God’s truth again and that made for a reformation, but what did he know of the beast standing in the sea?   God gives insight in His time.      I have trained seven children.   As young  children, I did not flood them with...

Cyclosporine

  Cyclosporine      Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressive drug given to keep the body from rejecting a transplanted organ.   In other words, the body knows its own and will fight foreign matter from being grafted in.   As a man with stage four kidney disease, this drug may come in handy.       So how is Christ our cyclosporine?   New must come.   In our natural state, our being fights what is not original.   Upon conversion, His Spirit enters in.   Mysteriously His Spirit intertwines with ours being permanently bonded together forever.   Hence, He is needed as we accept Him as our savior.      Acceptance is a huge thing.   What we allow into our heart, mind, and soul influences our spirit which animates our body.   We are as fortresses, walled cities with wooden gates hung upon steel hinges.   He gives us opportunity to stage keepers at each entrance.   They...

She Doesn't Tell You That You Are A Loser

She Doesn’t Tell You That You Are Loser Grace:  The incredible pink cushion between your screwed up decisions and the ramifications wrought by them. Mercy:  withholds the rod.  Grace says, “Now what?  Given you’ve gotten yourself into a marijuana muddied bowl of slime, would you like a hand up?”  She gets her hands dirty. “That’s ok, its just something I have to work through.”  And she does.  Her incredible prayer power burns a hole through overhanging clouds of gloom. My ears pierce in my usual confronting atmosphere.  An auto E.Q. does its job to focus the vibrations to the rear-view mirror.  Anger aligns my head to look straight into traffic.  Twenty minutes of a sub-woofer gets my energy out of the windshield. “Hey, you’re messing with my woman!”  We have an understanding.  She is to be under my wing.  I have violated before, running in a tangent to the graph.  I’ve learned not to overreact.  I conc...
