When Others Press You Back & Down.... Stretch Your Faith and Your Body...Refuse to break!

We can all fall as victims of negative thinking...
Especially if the only persons around you are not happy in their own lives.

Some folks no one can please....because they actually enjoy being disagreeable.
It is a fact that some folks weirdly get a high of some kind when ever they successfully divide...
Divide anyone...a husband from his wife...son from his father and or his brother...

And even within churches... leaders who are typically self appointed, dress vulgarly and therefore lead others including youth to live as they do...dressing in tight sexually explicit clothing...leading them to delve into promiscuous behaviors...

You & I nor our children need to follow along with this crowd...that is...
Those who choose to live self-righteously, lustfully, and sinfully.

It will not be easy to completely shield thy eyes from every single person who dresses distastefully.

But we can make choices that limit the amount of time that we are in such public places.
Instead of exercising at a gym or health club where it has always been acceptable to wear skimpy coverings while "Working out"  hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Choose instead to stretch and tone your body in your home or even your prayer room...
Stretch...your muscles and body to soft gentle worship music at the start of each new day...
Before you set off for work and or play.

And at the end of each day after much travel up and down trails of trials and tribulations...
Why not end your day the same way with soft soothing stretching to worship & praise tunes of joy...

And the fear or despair that tries to attach itself to even me...has no choice but to evaporate or dry and rise.

Amen Amen Amen...Friends keep on smiling!   Stretching Catching and Fetching...
God's goodness, joy and life!

"Catch a Fall'n Star And Put It In Your Pocket....Save It For A Rainy Day!"

As a very young child though not certain my exact age...
I learned that song.

Cannot recall where I first heard it...
Oh it may have been on a children's television program...

Possibly Captain Kangaroo or Romper room that came on television just before him.

Since the Captain was the one who had "Mr. Drawing board" where an unseen person was drawing on something from its backside....

So all you could see was the artists drawing or painting coming to life but the creator of this art remained unseen.

So it is with our human lives so frail....
What we cannot see such as funguses among us that can in many cause serious disease.

Yet within our societies which we live in exist people whose choices have turned themselves into parasites of a kind...

That can actually gradually tear down not merely the physical human body making it sick...
But negativity, un-constructive criticism that teaches nothing...that does not turn one away from anything dangerous but is merely vindictive in nature..

Too many of these personalities exist today and possibly a few of them if they meet you today...
Few may if they meet you and you teach them to wear blue without being blue...

They just may catch your bright SonShiney Smile into their heart....
A Bright Star which they can carry not merely in their pocket but within their heart's soul and....
Like you & me always sing new songs in spite of our circumstances...

Sing praises to God for our dreams now as if they already exist...
And HE sitting up high upon the heavenly throne watching waiting and listening for even one just one to sing and shout with a mere mustard dustin of trustin...asking until they receive....seeking HIS Holy Face from morning till dusk with simple trust...and soon very soon....HE will perform...

All that we dare to boldly dare to see with Jeremiah eyes & sing praise for....and continue singing HIS praises even after...

HE chases us down with MIRACLES and more MIRACLES with much joy and laughter...

All because we daringly stretched forth our love and FAITH to HIM and our neighbors
Our great catch is far more than "fallen stars or heroes" but the essence of fullness of life itself!


STRETCH! 
              
                 STRETCH! 

                            CATCH & FETCH!
