Wow! That Hurts!

I’m so manic right now. Had my first therapy session today. It was draining. I think I’ve been waiting to get the stuff in my head out and the thoughts rush through. I’m 60 and have experienced life on life’s terms. Not God’s. I have prices I’ve paid. I have the scars of my life, pain and experiences. I live with constant pain of some sort every day but that’s not going to be what stops me from telling my story to whoever will listen. I have started looking at trees in a totally different way. They wear their scars on the outside. The pain and experience are right there for you to see. We can’t see other people’s pain. They keep it on the inside. The next time you walk past the tree, look at its life how twisted or knotted or straight it is. People are like trees, some grow straight and appear to be perfect. You know kinda looks like they’re their pristine all the way through their life, but I think those people might never find God because they don’t have the habits hurts and things that most of us. God requires trust. He wants us to seek His face for our daily sustenance. That’s the line in sand. If you’re not seeking Him, you leave yourself open to whatever satan was in store for you that day. Chew on that.
