SHE'S DONE IT NOW!!!!

I just finished a conversation, with a person I've known for a long time.  We talked about a lot of things- past mistakes, coincidences, psychology, the world, the galaxies, the stars patterns, things that have happened in our lives and in others lives.  But, we ended kind of on- philosophy.  We ended our conversation, with a conversation about being perceived incorrectly or misconstrued.  We talked about a relationship that I had with this other person, and how a "unintentional" situation, had turned into NOT ONLY an offense to this other person, but a false perception of mal intent OFFENSE!   I know who reads my stuff or doesn't care to. That's not important.  Something however, that IS important to me in my philosophy, is to give praise, honor or recognition to those that I have seen DO praise worthy things that may have been over looked.  Honorable situations that were not recognized as honorable. I've been rightly judged a lot in my life.  But, I have also been wrongly judged.  To be rightly judged by someone may cause us to pat our own self on the back for a second and say, "wow I deserved THAT atta boy" with pride.  But, just for a second.  Chances are, in a week or a month, it will all be forgotten.  But, let someone PERCEIVE INCORRECTLY - something done honorably to make "an uncomfortable situation" for a friend, less painful. And, then to be ACCUSED of mal intent in the situation, by the person that you have invested part of your life to... a supposed mature adult...that'll hang with you for a while.  THOSE just do!  NOBODY likes being misunderstood.  Can you imagine how our heavenly Father must feel when things go awry in our lives and we blame HIM and accuse HIM of mal intent? I'm shaking my head, but NOT because I've never done it.  I'm shaking my head because I HAVE done it! Because I THOUGHT that I knew HIS intent!  I JUDGED GOD!  And the shame nearly killed me. If you jump back several thousand years in scripture to the Garden where Adam and Eve walked with the Lord in the cool of the day......you'll find ol' slew foot (as Meemaw Boykin once referred to him in one of our conversations on life) back there in the beginning, whispering lies and planting seeds of doubt in Eve's mind, attempting to discredit and falsely accuse Holy God.  His own pride was his fall - but he blamed God.  He did not Give Honor to the Father, when ALL GLORY and ALL HONOR and ALL POWER and ALL PRAISE belong to God! They are His, He is creator, He is owner of all, it's ALL HIS!  But He CHOSE to love us- in our perfection that He created us in.  But then, man believed a lie, and LOST God's provision of friendship in the cool of the Garden with the Father. He loves us sooo much! Even with His foreknowledge of ALL things, knowing that we would falsely accuse Him of 'just trying to get even with us for our sinful pasts' or karma or some other mystical mumbo jumbo- John 3:16 For God so loved.... We sometimes- falsely accuse others, when we don't truly know the thoughts and intentions of another's heart... But we will begin to look a lot more like Jesus, when we allow the work of the Holy Spirit of God to bring us to places of pruning and maturity in our walk and growth in Christ.  Yeah, some of you just wanted to see what I've been up.  Because SOME OF YOU are nosey busybodies. Be careful who you let whisper in your ear! Well stop! I used to be you! But, I've found the most precious pearl that is WORTHY of ALL PRAISE AND GLORY AND HONOR and He gave me rest for my wearied soul and He forgave me ALL of my sins...and now He calls me daughter, bride, BELOVED, forgiven, chosen and HONORABLE. . . because He sees my heart.  And He shows me glimpses of His heart....and I cry for J O Y  John 3:16  <3  Have a blessed day IN THE LORD <3
