My apologies. High anxiety this morning. Offline mainly will help.
Agreeing with all said and lifting prayers up for the oppressed.
No apologies necessary, and
mainly offline sounds right to me as well. For me, I have a friend, a "flower in Spring" as some say, and I realized just yesterday that if she leaves I leave. I have other friends, but that's the big one, and I don't actually have much reason for staying if she doesn't. I had this dream on Saturday where my car got stolen. I had it once before back in 2018, right before I realized I had nothing left at CF that interested me anymore and soon found another site I liked much better anyway. I think the same thing is happening now. Just like cars, web sites wear out their usefulness and turn into junkers, LoL. They can be stolen, too, but I have two old used cars in real life that I honestly wouldn't care if either one were stolen at this point. They're both heading for the junkyard. But I have a new one on order from the factory and it's definitely time for a new car, so there's a prophetic parallel to a new transition in life; an upgrade as it were to something cleaner, newer, nicer.
In another dream I had Sunday (and some may not think the Lord would say this, LoL, but it is what it is), I saw a brief flash of a huge Dog. He looked like a Hound Dog, and I was viewing Him from behind, and He was maybe two stories tall (like Dinosaur). The funny part is He was lifting His leg and about take a wiz on something, LoL. I can't help but think there comes a time when the Lord moves on, and sort of resigns things to their fate if you will (Romans 1:28). I truly hate to see it happen, but when a Hound Dog tracks down the enemy and gets ignored, well, what's left to do? You move on. But I have come to see the hand of fate in many things now. The Lord literally puts people into situations, even those belonging to the enemy, to end up purifying His own, and making of them something greater than what they were. He did this with Israel many times.
So I trust that's what the Lord is doing here. I have my prayer shawl draped over the computer as a reminder that it's what I need to give my life more to now, and I have a house that runs many parallels with getting "cleaned up" as well; along with two cars that need to be removed, the driveway needs to be pressure washed cuz it's growing black; the back yard has sections that need to be dug up because hard-to-kill weeds have taken over. But I have some flowers back there now that make the backyard prettier than it has ever been, and what's coming will be even nicer; flowers all over, and fruit trees, and tomatoes... Maybe even rock gardens and fountains eventually.
Whatever the case, it's a change of life in many ways right now, and for the better. I feel badly for what I'm leaving behind, but I have to look to what is in front of me, and think on what is positive.
Anyway, gotta go to work, but the point is: Here's to flowers, LoL. They make my outlook brighter.
Have a blessed day, and whenever we talk is whenever we talk. I'll be looking forward to it, as always.
