Calm Brings The Joy

Wind blows so strong
Turn things about

Things look darken
Light brings a shout

Here comes the Son
In whom we love

Warmth comes around
Below above

Peace understands
Brightens this day

Calm brings the joy
As we now pray

After Thoughts:
How I did I come up with this poem?
I like to look at the clouds after a storm.
There are things that comes about...
There can be a lot of drama in any storm.

Nature can speak...
But in the storms of life we can see darkness.
In the darkness there comes some light.
That light of revelation in the storm.

The Son of God is there in the midst of all our storms in life.
The love of God brings comfort and warmth upon us all around.

There is a peace that we can understand in the storm.
There is a calmness that we feel.
Pray before during in and after the storms of life.

Pull Away From Danger

What pulls us to danger?
Those things not good for us

Seem to be drawn back to
What we should leave, not trust

Holding on by a string
When needing to let go

It's like hooked on danger
Not letting go of flow

Just cut loose from the string
Break away from old ties

Pull away from danger
No matter what, its' wise

How did I come up with this poem?
I see in life we go in cycles...
Going through the same old issues.
Why don't we wise up and let go?
It's the same old thing.

It's hurting us to stay on the journey.
What pulls us to danger?
Are we blinded by what we fear might happened?
Or is it we enjoy the thrill?

We need to believe God and move on.
We need to let go of the string.
and cut loose from old lies and ties of life.

Start anew.

Words Had Left Silence's Life

Silence listeners stay low
Behind the scene to read

Not uttering a word
Waiting to hear what's said

As time passes each year
Words seem to die away

Silence began to speak
Words with nothing to say

Just sitting in silence
Not a word that was said

Words had left silence's life
Without words to dread

How did I come up with this poem?
I had a question on my thoughts:
Ever wondered why people read what others say but never speak?
People who read blogs or whatever.
They enjoy reading but not saying things.

The words die away, silent people what to speak.
But the writer is left with nothing to say.
Silence's life is silent.

We will never know how much we bless others.
Without commenting or speaking how will others know?

Believe By Faith, Trust God

Mind Full Of Ideas

What's there to journal
Out of things to say?

Thinking about what?
Or if, it will stay?

Write about living

There's more to writing
Journaling by days

Mind full of ideas
But what's there to say?

The Eight Day Has Dawned

Awaiting the eight day
Let new creation be

With anticipation
To explore what's to see

Real than ever before

Wanting to know Him more

Once Died Has Come Alive

Remember on that Day
Long long long time ago

All appeared to be lost
Darkness began to flow

Didn't know what to do next
At the end of crossroad

Still torn by what happened
Such burden heavy load

When will this pain go away?
How much more can we bare?

Good news comes upon us
What joy there inside grown

Once died has come alive
For it's becomes now known

With Joy Unspeakable

Along time awaiting
To have what's there to be

How excited this is
What a wonder yet be

Arise with joy in heart
So, glad that it's for me

When I fell to my knees

With joy unspeakable
How God has set me free

Rejoicing for He's God

When going through things in life, there come a change.
There are things that appear will never end.

We rejoice in what God is doing.
At times we don't see the good in things.
But, as we look back, we can see things clearer.

There's Something We Don't See

Trying to make things work
But, how can this thing be?

Like voices don't matter
Do others come to see?

Where we are coming from
Or how we might be heard?

Wanting the unity
Yet, listening not a word

So, what are we missing?
What is it we don't get?

There's something we don't see
May we all learn a bit

After Thoughts:
How I came up with this poem?
There was an issue that kept coming up.
When ideas and suggestions were mentioned....
It was like what was said was not heard.
We want things to be in unity but not hear what others say.
How is that being in unity?

What is the point in saying some things?
Do each voice matter?
We can learn from others when they don't see others' point of view.
It's not who's right or who's wrong.
It's working together as a team.
Or is it something we all don't see?

What A Rain Storm

Out of no where

God So Loves Us

It's been ten years
How time has flown

Through the long years

Things left to do

God so loves us
To see us through

Do We Care About Them?

Do we consider others?
What we do, they can see

The good, bad, the ugly
Those mishaps we let be

No correction on them
Building up stuff that goes

Inside that comes outward
Feeling the hurt that flows

Tend not to see what's there
In all see shame that shows

It's bringing deception
Such thoughts that fades away

Do we care about them?
OR let them go astray

How did I come up with this poem?
I was thinking about the little things we do.
We don't correct things that others see in us.
We can do one thing for others but not for another.

How we can thank someone for our birthdays,
But not thanking another who wish the same thing.
Is it that we don't know that person?
Or just wanting the wish?

Still there should be some respect to people who don't know.
It bring hurt to others who are left out especially friends.

Do we care about them? Them the others who we don't know...
Or are we pleasing our closer friends to make them feel better?

We should be kind to all who are kind to us.
We are no lesser than another.
We should show some love.
We are all loved by GOD.

Being Endings Anew

When things come to an end
Start some things over new

Make different approaches
Just go ahead on through

Forget about what's past

Begin, endings anew
Start over, with a blast

Life's Journey Continues

Be encourage, keep on
No matter what the cost

Believe you can do it
Even if there's a lost

Keep confident in God
To see you to the end

Life's journey continues
In all you must attend

Set mind out to choose

Old ways have must lose

Turned aside the past

Spend That Time Rejocing

Getting away from things
Know things causes a fuss

Don't let that steal your joy
Draw the line that's a must

Turn away that mind set
Choose to not go that way

Spend that time rejoicing
Have peace in where you stay

Things Been Changin

It's time to change

Don't get angry
Not loud but soft

Love forgiveness
So get on board

Got new platform

Don't Listen To Lies

Feeling low inside
Brings sadness to soul

Crushing down the mind
Weariness that flows

Wanting to but lay
waste away in sleep

Thinking it will leave
While the soul still keeps

Feeling depression
Consuming lost thoughts

How to cast away
Sorrow, pain that's brought?

Seek the LORD for HELP
Standing on His word

Don't listen to lies
Speak His word, Be heard

Sharing Some Burdens

Why share with others?
About things in life

Emotioins mishaps
Those things that bring stife

Why keep it inside?
Bundle up so tight

Speak to someone
Bring into the light

Burden be lifted
Relief comes to be

Sharing some burdens
Maybe,.. set you free.

Through it all enhance

What's ahead let's see

How to balance life
So much time there to do

Rest work pleasure

Wisdom it's must be

Lived out that's the key

It hurts to see things
That don't come my way

One speaks to others
Not me to say, hey

Not in circle ray

Cast away by day

No matter what be
Still I'm here to stay

There comes times in life
We hear shocking things

Where did that come from?
Such sad news to bring

Sick, death, loss, divorce
Sudden news that breaks

A loved one's heart shakes
Oh the soul that aches

May God heal the hurt
Breaking down the pain

Mourning comes dancing
Let's God mercy rain

Have Peace To Know Things

Place mind set to go
But things changes it

Need not to know how

Things change work out

Have peace to know things
Changes need not doubt

Cross Over To The New

At another crossroad
Some decisions to make

What do I want to do?
To where not to forsake

What choices do I have
But move on down the road

Casting heavy burdens
Aside lessons the load

Not to look back or think
Focus on what's ahead

Cross over to the new
Insight that's has been said

Some Of My Thoughts

I haven't been at this blog much. I have other sites that I've been keeping up on. I don't know what to use this site for.

I thought about using it to post some of my poems. I'm all most at 500 poems in about a year and a half.

Added: 20 April 2010:
I see that the purpose of this site has changed. I have come along ways. I do journal a lot on my other sites.

As I looked back on some of my postings on this Susan's Journal a lot has changed in what I wrote about on this site.

Life goes on. People change. People move on and do other things. I think it would be wise to record my poems on this site.

I see at some some point when I post my poems, I should add where or how I got the idea to write the poems. It could explain some things about my poetry.

Keep Staying On The Journey,
Susan

Blog Sites: Why Join?

On July 1st, I jotted down how many blog sites that I have. I wrote the dates that I jointed. I thought about why I jointed that site. Here's the list in the order that I jointed.

# Blog sites: Day Joined: Reason:

1. Xanga 13 November 2006 Friends there
2. Myspace October 2007 Family members there.
3. Blogspot 25 March 2008 Wanted another site to journal
4. ? 8 April 2008 Don't know why joined
5. Facebook 24 August 2008 Friends
6. My Life 28 June 2009 Asked or invited to join by a friend
7. Blogspot 30 June 2009 For Family History Recording.

Out of all these sites I am mostly on Xanga. Facebook would be second. The least would be the ? site that I signed up to.

Why do I think that I need to sign up to blog sites? Is it because my friends are there? Or is it because I like to be there and journal?

I can say that out all the sites, I'm here in Xanga the most. I like to journal. Here in Xanga there is no pressure. I can be myself.

I will admit facebook did give me some heartaches and depression. I have come along ways from what I have experienced. I see some things in a new light.

I know that I can easily just leave facebook. But that's not the point. I see a purpose in being there. There things that I do there.

I have found some friends while joining blog sites. Most of the friends leave and move on. Why join blog sites? I don't know the real reason. It might be out of curiosity to find out more about people.

May the LORD guide us in what to do with our blog sites. May what we learn and experience lead us into what God has for us. May we find our purpose in why we join blog sites.

While On The Journey
Blog Sites: Why Join?

I don't need to join any other blog sites.
I'm itching to have my poems somewhere.
I have well too many blog sites..

Blessings,
Susan

Entered Into 16th Year

Yeah, this week marks my 16th year of attending church gatherings. Things have changed....Time goes on. It's good to have changes over the years.

What's next ahead? I don't know. I need to set some boundaries. I need to approach things in a new way.

I don't know what it is. Things seems to be off track. Or perhaps I'm right on key. I have to get use to the things that has come about.

May the journey be more exciting as I journey on the way. May there be surprises as I see what's there to see. I thank God that He's on this journey with me.

Season Ending

Every August begins the ending of something old. The Summer seasons comes to a close next month. Things begin to change.

The leaves change colors, The temperture becomes cooler. Time changes. The season ends. Things must continue on.

I have crossed over into move on where I am now. I didn't know that I would be where I am now. Things are different.

I see things differently. There are things that I use to do. I have no interest in doing any more. I turned away from the "Crowd" so to speak.

I sensed a change in life. I thought about some things. I made some changes. I can continue to do things that are working out.

It's different doing things. I have been getting use to things. I have have to keep moving moving on down this road of life.

August Time

It's been a while. I have been on my other websites. I need to balance the times when I'm on my computer.

I can spemd a lot of time searching for family history. I have a website that I started on the family history. I need to work on how I am going to do that.

I am compiling what I have been discovering along my searching journey on my family tree. It has been over 30 years of searching.

I have been trying to piece together some things. There are new records avaible to search. So new information is added to records.

Happy July!

July is a month of freedom and celebration. I don't know what's ahead in July. I started another blog on my family history.

I am journaling more. I think that I can do what I can as the time comes along. I hope that I will not over do things.

I don't need to have so many blogs to keep up with the Jones. I am leaving some things on my sites.

Some Reflections: Along The Path Of Healing

It has been a journey Along The Path Of Healing. This journey continues... June was just the beginning. Healing is a process in life.

I prayed for my family, friends, others I didn't know. I prayed for relationships, the world, people on the earth and myself.

It has been a refreshing journey. I've learned some things about myself. Indeed I have learned more about the people around me and people in general. It's more than I thought.

I thought about doing this journey back in April. I choice June to do it. I am so glad that I did. I am along the path of healing. I am being restored from things of my past.

By the middle of the months things began to change. There were some things in my life that took on a new twist. I mean, things are different.

It's good to be relieved from some things. The restoration time takes time to get to. The adjusting time takes time to be in.

I came up with some blog ideas while on this journey. I came across new insights about some things. On Father's Day, the first day on Summer, I begin something new.

There were some things that came about that I didn't expect. It was good in a way. You know I have been apart of the "church world" for about 16 years. There are more things that I am aware of as I go about life.

I thank God that He is with me. It doesn't matter if I am appreciated or not, rejected, ignored or whatever in life that comes. That's apart of life. Those things will come.

It's my attitude in what I do when things come at me that matters. God is with me along the path of healing. It's His touch and guidance that brings healing.

After this exercise for 30 days, I am learning to enjoy my life more. I have learned to lighten up more. I should take time for MYSELF. I should pray for OTHERS and RELATIONSHIPS.

We live in this earth. This planet is our home. We should take care of what we have. Thank God, that He is restoring what was lost in the fall.

Father God,
I thank You for bring me into a new place. I thank You are directing my steps. May I continue on the path that You have for me.

See me through all that there is to come. I thank You for the wonderful gatherings we had as a family on Saturdays. Let Saturdays be family days.

I pray that we continue to have some sort of gathering as a family throughout the Summertime. It is such a blessings to join together as a family.

May we be built up and encouraged. May others come when they can. May our family be blessed in Jesus' name Amen.

Father's Day '09

We are to honor our fathers on Father's Day. But Father's Day is not just for fathers. We make up the whole when we ALL are part of that DAY. If Father's Day was only for fathers than some will be let out.

What about those who don't have a father? Those who's father has passed on or fathers who weren't apart of their children's lives? What about those who are not fathers? How do they all fit into Father's Day?

While I was greeting this morning, I wish many Happy Father's Day! I gave some fathers hugs. I said Happy Father's Day to some ladies that I regular greet.

Yes, I did. Some of the ladies said THANK YOU! Some were very appreciative. Then there were some who did get what I was saying.

It was so nice to see father's walking in church. I saw father's carrying their children. Some walking holding their child's hand. The love of a father with their children.

I did have a HAPPY FATHER's Day. It was because of what I know. Note: This is my 19th Father's Day without my birth father. So how can I celebrate Father's Day without a father?

Yes, how can I (and others) celebrate without a father? Indeed I am not a father. Nor do I have a father in law .... So why am I so HAPPY about Father's Day?

I received that revelation about God, the Father. I have an Heavenly Father. Yes, He is a Father for those who have called upon Jesus as LORD and Savior.

I have an HEAVENLY Father to honor on Father's Day. It's a big deal when a person doesn't have a father. God wants to be a Father with a family.

I did have a wonderful Father's Day! I had a nice 7th Anniversary Day as well as being a greeter at Word of Life Church. Before I got out of bed this morning , I said Happy Father's Day , Heavenly Father!

Every year I try to give God something on Father's Day. But I have realized that the best gift that I can give Him is myself. It 's not silly to want to give God something for Father's Day. Within reason we can give God some things.

Heavenly Father,
I thank You that You want to be a Father with a family. I thank You that You have adopted me and others to be apart of Your family.

Help us who don't have a father on earth to acknowledge You as our Father. Teach all of us the value of Father's Day. Live can be tough without a father growing up or with an abusive father in the home.

Guide those who are fatherless. Those who are orphans. Let them know that they can be loved by You through others who are around them.

I appreciative You for being our Father. Thank You for being an example to all fathers. Happy Father's Day God. in Jesus' name Amen!

Getting Use To Changes

I am having to get use to the changes that have come about. I must move on. I am taking on other things.

I have been typing my poems on my lap tap. I have the first notebook done. 121 + poems. There are over 150 poems that I wrote in the past 7 months

I have more time to do things that I have put off. It's good to have a new mind set on things. I am getting my mind off the things that I had a mind set on doing.

Now I see that I can do others things. It took me a while to catch on. I guess that I am slow.

It did hard when I realize what was going on. Well at least it's what I have been seeing. I must not chase after things or people who are not interested in what I have to say or do.

I can't be used of God when I am doing things out of died faith. Things are not working out. Things seem still and not going any where.

I shouldn't be frustrated when doing good deeds. There should be some joy in what I set out to do. I should have some type of joy.

When bitterness comes in, that is not of God. I have to hold my peace. I have to shake the dust from my feet and just move on.

I am moving on down the road some more. I have NEW HOPE. I am building on some things new. I thank God for wisdom to move on.

Another Week Ahead

I am looking forward to this week. It's my two week of fasting one of my websites. I am doing OK.

I can get too involved in doing things. I can get burnt out. I should put too much interest in people or in doing things.

People can be iffy iffy at times. We can do one thing for someone and other thing for another. Or all in all do nothing for who we don't like.

I know the Bible says we are loved. But what about the point of not being liked? That times I get the impression that there are people who love me but don't like me.

I don't know why I have this impression. May be because there are some people who quiet speaking to me. Or turn away when they see my coming.

I can take the hint. It does hurt. But I am a big girl. I have can shake of the offend and move on.

God is with. I am loved by God. He will not leave me nor forsake me. I believe that God's likes me too.
