One of my friends read the poem I posted a few nights ago and she called me "deep". She said that she understood it but maybe some people wouldn't. LOL. I read it again and I guess that's right. She also asked me was I talking about myself? LOL. Hmmm.....no, not that night, but I'm sure it was me at some point and time. Actually, that night my hubby came home from work. He didn't give me my hello kiss and I said something to him about it. We were fine. No anger involved. When I started to type other things came to mind and out popped the poem. I shared it b/c it is/was relevant! If we are brutally honest with ourselves, we can probably say that one time or another we came home from work(or wherever) tired, broke down, irritated and just didn't feel like being bothered! You might have a spouse or a family or a pet at home but to be honest, you just wanted peace and quiet! LOL. IT'S TRUE! COME ON! BE REAL! LOL!! Whether you are married with no children, married with children, a single parent with children or even if you live alone, you have kept up the 'pretense' of a smile being on your face while in the pubic eye when you weren't feeling it and then got behind closed doors and let the 'real you' of the moment come out. Guess what it's called? BEING HUMAN! LOL.(but also, not being prayed UP!) What WE(yes me too) must learn to do is to pray on our way home. Ask God to shake off the days stresses and allow us to breathe and rest in Him so that when we get home, we will love on our family/spouse/ourselves the way they/we deserve and to be mentally prepared to meet their needs. We should never be called out because we show strangers every courtesy but not our flesh and blood and this happens ALOT, whether you are in the Body of Christ or not. God wants us to be real at all times. My prayer is that we grow in God and get consistent in our emotions and be loving at all times. That's a PROCESS but if we are willing to yield to it and work at it ON PURPOSE, we'll see a change!
