Soon Pa… See You Soon

By Christina

imageI am at the airport and finally heading home!
I am beginning to feel like myself again.
I can feel my natural thoughts coming back.
Ready to head back to my own thrown and responsibilities.
This was truly a DIE TO SELF week for me. I grew weak during the week. I did. I am not even going to lie about that.
It wasn’t easy. I never had to care for someone I love so dearly and see the violent acts of progressive cancer in full-blown operation.
This is a terminal situation, unfortunately.
Selah.

Even though I walk through the darkest valley.
I will fear NO evil, for YOU are with me;
Your rod and Your staff they comfort me.
Psalm 23:4

I didn’t want to reach out to anyone.
And I didn’t want them to reach out to me.
It wasn’t easy. Even though I haven’t seen an episode but through captivating commercials, my life was like an Empire episode.
I don’t even know how it happened. Continue reading

From Save to Take

By Christina

image

I would never think that anyone could actually prepare for the worst in the best way. When the time arrives it is worst than worst. It is beyond what you imagine as you tug from the depth of your mental state the most appropriate coping mechanisms possible. And during that moment where your prayers were strongly directed towards SAVE HIM, now you know how to direct prayer best to TAKE HIM.

Why prolonged suffering, torment, pain, chaos, anger, pent-up sadness, anxiety and every other ill thing that surfaces in moments of terminal THREATS!!!!

It is coming to an end.
It is coming to the last.
It is coming to the worst.
It is accepting our reality. Continue reading

Painting “Be Still”

By Christina

imageIs this too personal?
This is for Dad, so maybe it is.
I didn’t know what to do.
Truly! I went out last night and had amazing laughs! That was like medicine. God is giving me peace. The doctors advised of my dads cancer as progressive stage 4. I immediately want to RUN over there but I am so torn with many other things and trying to prioritize God Over Everything. And still I want to be there! But I also don’t want to go alone this time because, we have to do more. I woke and wrote the following at 3:48am ….

Beside a verse that states John 14:18 “I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you.”
So this tells me God will come to my situation because truly there are things beyond our control especially with timing.

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO?????? Continue reading

New discoveries;

New things;

New life;

We live and we learn.

Teach us to love again.

Teach us to love more. Continue reading
