We make believe we are more than what we are. We make believe we deserve more than what get. Make believe isn't lost when we hit puberty or when we hit some age where we are "free". The. Ale believe we see every day, in the ones who say that they will never go away. It could be me, it could be you; it can anyone close to you.
Make believe will never leave untilk we live this way......to live is Christ and die is gain...... Everything else is make believe........
----------------------
I know who wrote this and the part at the end is scary. The "to live is Christ" part comes from Philippians 1:21 and is um, connected from, Matthew 16:25, Mark 8:35, Luke 9:24....where Jesus says " Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for me will save it."
The whole make believe, well, like a play, some fall into their characters, some are just playing their characters. Through it all, it is no more real than we want it to be. To one who says they love, what they believe is what love is to them. To one who blames another or has this definition of "God wants this (God says what He wants, we are not to put our words as His) for me" we believe it is even though it really isn't . We walk away from each other with the make belief that "this is what I had to do" . Usually any blame is put on others.
I don't want to write this next part, in fact I want to ignore this. No one has put more blame and misguided anger on others than myself. I'm not holy nor any of that. This next words are not my own, nor do they not apply to me.
John 8:7
7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”
Romans 3:23-24
23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; 24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
It is make believe when we glory in our thoughts of what "is right" or what " we think should happen"
I hope this makes sense and isn't taken out of context.
Hm, there is no "me" then, if there is, then that is the make believe......
God in heaven, if there is nothing more to this life, then protect her, this heart hasn't changed that it longs for her, be her family. Be with those of my blood, whether they see You or not. Be with those that are like blood, may we turn our hearts from us. Whether you do anything more we think is our definition of "good" to us, You gave us Your greatest gift already. We didn't deserve that. I'm sorry each day I stress You out. Have patience I beg, for I'm a doofus. May these hands bring me nothing, but You everything. As always I beg for what Jesus said about losing life for Him. Help us let go. In Jesus name.
Peace, love, a laugh and smile.......
