After a long few nights, I woke this morning with this verse repeating n my mind. It was a peaceful way to wake, Especially on a Monday. I got a call from a sweet friend yesterday, That was a lovely gift. And the happiest i&#39;ve felt in a while. To this person, Thank you. I don&#39;t get to invest time into friends that would like too due to the circumstances in my life, Few of i can control. I love you all. My closest friends, The Landmarks of my life&#39;s Journey. You&#39;re spread apar&lt;span class=&quot;text_exposed_show&quot; style=&quot;display: inline;&quot;&gt;t by the passing of time, few of you know each other, you all hold a few things in common. This side of Eternity, You are my best treatment plan. It&#39;s not the therapies some of you provide (those help and are greatly appreciated) it&#39;s your time and your friendship. it&#39;s the smile you brought to my face, the random burst of laughter you&#39;ve brought to my voice. It&#39;s waiting the crazy smile before you take the picture. (because you know it&#39;s there. ) it&#39;s dinners.and prayers. It&#39;s embarrassing me in a hug in a hug after 18 years, It&#39;s spending your day helping retrieve the meds i had forgotten. it&#39;s being a reflection &amp;amp; demonstration Of the relationship God seeks and the love he holds for his creation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I have a very long week ahead. I&#39;m going to do something. And i want those who read this to join me.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;margin: 6px 0px;&quot;&gt;
One thing to remember and one to ask. -- #1 He made me &amp;amp; chose me for this. For Right now. #2 Ask before speaking -- What is the meditation of my heart? is it pleasing to my creator who chose me for this moment.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;Fathers Day: I believe a mans highest calling this side of heaven is the God given duty and privilege, of Not just being a father, But a Dad. As a child i watched my own father, And As a young kid it never occurred to me that my physical limitations would keep me from my own dream of being a Dad. It&#39;s something i dreamed of quite often. And, what many don&#39;t know is that the thought of living without being a Dad or even finding love is something that grows harder and harder for me to cope with as i close the door on my 20&#39;s. That being said, I believe we all have a responsibility to lead by example for the younger generations. I can do that every time God blesses me with a new day. I wouldn&#39;t be able to do that without first My heavenly father Lord &amp;amp; Savior Jesus Christ. Second My own father who is the earthly definition of sacrificial love, devotion &amp;amp; A true fisher of men, including myself. In some men&#39;s heart burns a more devoted flame. one of whom is My father.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;So to all those who are Not just a father, But step up everyday to lead and be a Dad, My undying respect &amp;amp; admiration is forever yours. Happy Fathers Day.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I&#39;ll give it a shot. First tee, from the tips. Set my shot line. deep breath, Time to let the big dog eat. Start back swing, full power, start follow through... i can do this... i can... do... this. Moment &amp;nbsp;of truth... contact. I, will have you know, Ladies and Gents..... I pushed that thing SO FAR INTO THE RIGHT TREES.... that When it went to my ball for my second shot.... Bilbo Baggins, from the hobbit, pops out of a hole in the tree to my right. wearing a wife beater stained with the brown liquor of his choice, and cigarette hanging off his bottom lip.

This is a very powerful young woman. She&#39;s cutting a new road &amp;amp; raising the bar for what&#39;s possible for people in the &quot;disability community&quot; She&#39;s made it her personal mission to destroy the old, naive, ignorant, ideas that society tells someone with physical challenges.

I know it well. I also know that the human relationship can suffer from atrophy as well. If it be friendship, family relationship, or the relationship with your significant other. If not properly maintained or due to &amp;nbsp;significant nerve damage the muscle grows frail shaky and weak. This goes on long enough, our muscles and bodies are never the same. Our relationships are the most significant treasure granted to us in this life. If damaged by our actions, words, or neglect long enough, atrophy robs our relationship of life just like it would your bodies or like it did my legs.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

homophobic. Or made out of hate. They were based on HIS personal beliefs rooted
in THE Bible and the word of God. if you
disagree with Mr. Robertson&#39;s beliefs as a Christian, or my beliefs as a Christ follower, that is your right to disagree. But, you shouldn&#39;t change your beliefs to suit me. And i won&#39;t change my beliefs to
suit you. if we have to change our beliefs Just to keep peace and please each other then we strip peace of all its very meaning, and value. People need to stop trying to make
an honorable man into a man of hate. It&#39;s okay to disagree. Its NOT okay to
make a man into something he is not because of that disagreement.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;America was the land of many cultures, many religions, many ideas. Our country was founded on the idea that we have a right as human beings to peacefully build the core of our lives around what we feel in our hearts to be the sacred truth, and to do everything we can to live out that truth with every sunrise. To lead our children down the path with &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;grace, honor, love, peace, Humility and conviction&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Times, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04; font-family: Times, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;to what WE believe to be&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000; font-family: Times, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt; THE TRUTH&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04; font-family: Times, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Times, &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;,&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The meaning behind what you&#39;re trying to say and the words that find their way out are often two different things.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Would have used. But, the faith that those beliefs are grounded in is strong, true, and biblical. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;Hello, I&#39;m John Bullard, am 26 years old, and have Cerebral Palsy. I live with my family and love the time we spend together. It has become increasingly difficult for me as of late to participate in very important activities, all of which contribute to my life, without a safe accessible wheelchair van. I have goals and needs I want to work on, like getting my GED, participating in activities with friends, and staying involved in my church, all very special. Also important is the need for transportation for therapy and for medical needs.

With prayer, I am trying to raise enough funds for a wheelchair van so that i may travel safely. Life is a gift to be experienced.... and i am asking for your help and donation, please give if you can. it would truly change my&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;life and my family&#39;s life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;Go here http://www.gofundme.com/3nihjw Or, &amp;nbsp;click below&amp;nbsp;to donate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;....&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;Thank you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #660000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 22px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #660000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 22px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Saw the following on a message board discussion on migraines.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #660000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 22px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 22px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&quot;Used to be that i would get a weird sensation of numbness in the top or sides of my head. For about the last two weeks i have had a full tingly sensation that spreads from around my ear to half way up my scalp and on the upper jaw and cheek. When i used to get the numbness i would self adjust my neck and it would go away. This sensation comes and goes several times a day. It does not seem to be triggered by anything. &amp;nbsp;Some times i can feel movement and even notice that the movement moves the classes on my face. today i can feel what seems to be my heart beat in the side of my face. My face almost feels like the sensation that you get when you go to get your wisdom teeth out and they stick you with that medicine.&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 22px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

I want to leave a mark; I want to make a difference. I sit now, But I will stand again. It may not be in this place, or “normal” by its evaporating standers which it falsely claims. But REAL, ever flowing truth. &lt;br /&gt;In my observation, rarely, in being REAL are we ever“normal”nor, in being “normal” are we ever being REAL. For who determines “normal” from REAL But HE, who holds all that is REAL in his hands. I am REAL, YOU ARE REAL, We are different in a few ways but in Many the same. We are REAL. What is “normal “but slow yet never ceasing evaporation of all that is false? And what is REAL, But, all that is strong, able, and, everlasting. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&quot;He loved us, not because we were lovely to him, but to make us lovely.&quot;~&amp;nbsp; &lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;Tim Keller&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;“Going home Without my sorrow Going home Sometime tomorrow Going home To where it&#39;s better Than before Going home Without my burden Going home Behind the curtain Going home Without this costume That I wore”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LEONARD COHEN - GOING HOME.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;Jesus said,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc0000;&quot;&gt;&quot;It is finished.&quot; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://jbrollinglife.blogspot.com/feeds/2024975952631620501/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://jbrollinglife.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-evaporation-of-normal-everlasting.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2818174887301374427/posts/default/2024975952631620501'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2818174887301374427/posts/default/2024975952631620501'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jbrollinglife.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-evaporation-of-normal-everlasting.html' title='The evaporation of &quot;normal&quot;, The Everlasting  REALNESS of life.

I don&#39;t have the words anymore....&amp;nbsp; Thank you for teaching me lessons that have lasted far beyond my walker and my attitude... Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #990000;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;redheading&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;Corinthians 13:11&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;If you have someone who pushes you because they love you. to break down your walls of your own&amp;nbsp; preconceived limitations, hold on to them. because they know what you can do.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;You can only overcome your challenges after you accept them.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;when your feet are on the ground everyday you take it for granted. When i could stand i was so focused on upset at the work that i had to do that i missed the reward, I never understood until much later that most times in my life how beautiful it was, My feet on the ground or my fragile step.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;A few years ago i went to run walk and roll with my father there were kids there in Gait Trainers walking slowly but determined&amp;nbsp; every step of the little girl in front of me was the most beautiful thing I&#39;ve ever seen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #783f04;&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;Without P.T.S that girl wouldn&#39;t be able to feel Gods ground beneath her feet.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dear God, I come before you once again, knowing full well, That I 
cannot be judged by any court of earth that holds true and final verdict
 But, only when I STAND before you may I be judged. LORD, I Fall short 
today, I will fall short tomorrow. But everyday i have an aching thirst 
for the living water of your grace. God, I am a sinner FORGIVE ME. my 
misleading words and ways, my misspeaking and my untruths For setting my
 eyes upon things those things that are unclean and are not honorable to you And 
misleading and not being truthful about it at the time FORGIVE ME for my
 selfish ways, desires, words, and thoughts God, I’m only a man. A 
selfish man, Only of soul, not body. My body will melt away like snow in
 the sun. My body is meaningless if without my soul. For when the day 
comes, and you count me among your kingdom, my body will be of new. God,
 you said we would suffer in this world. My body is not who i am. i WILL
 SUFFER with you or without you. I CHOOSE to suffer with you, So That I 
may WALK down the streets of your kingdom when your day comes. Father, 
take me in your arms, and may i forever be your bride. AMEN.&lt;br /&gt;
Its your mercy that makes me free.&lt;br /&gt;

When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I’m not shouting “I’m clean livin’.”&lt;br /&gt;
I’m whispering “I was lost,&lt;br /&gt;
Now I’m found and forgiven.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I don’t speak of this with pride.&lt;br /&gt;
I’m confessing that I stumble&lt;br /&gt;
and need Christ to be my guide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I’m not trying to be strong.&lt;br /&gt;
I’m professing that I’m weak&lt;br /&gt;
And need His strength to carry on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I’m not bragging of success.&lt;br /&gt;
I’m admitting I have failed&lt;br /&gt;
And need God to clean my mess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I’m not claiming to be perfect,&lt;br /&gt;
My flaws are far too visible&lt;br /&gt;
But, God believes I am worth it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I still feel t he sting of pain.&lt;br /&gt;
I have my share of heartaches&lt;br /&gt;
So I call upon His name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say… “I am a Christian”&lt;br /&gt;
I’m not holier than thou,&lt;br /&gt;
I’m just a simple sinner&lt;br /&gt;
Who received God’s good grace, somehow!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When I say I’m a Christian - By Maya Angelou&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Chase your true passion before chasing your “goals.” because, 
goals not built on your true passion, are not worthy of being your true 
goals.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;“Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and
 silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths Of night and 
light and the half-light,&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;I would spread the cloths under your feet:But I, being poor, have only my dreams;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;I have spread my dreams under your feet;Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.”&amp;nbsp; &lt;b&gt;William Butler Yeats&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;i&gt;My dreams, My passions, Love, Be loved, Make a difference…. You do not have to great mountains to make great&amp;nbsp; differences….just a few mow hills. :) &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

     &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;I get by with a little help from my friends. There is a reason I
 am who I am There is a reason I am what I am, There is a reason for my 
challenges. There is a reason i once didn’t listen, There is a reason i 
now hear every word. while I do not know what lies before me, I do know 
who he has put around me. While i cannot bare weight, I know he has 
bared every weight….. So if i stand let me stand on the promise that you
 will pull me through…. the only way out is through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;If my path be smooth or rugged&lt;br /&gt;If with thorns or roses strewn&lt;br /&gt;Where i go the Father seeith&lt;br /&gt;And He will leave me not alone&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I take the wings of morning&lt;br /&gt;Far within the silent sea&lt;br /&gt;Even there His hand will lead me&lt;br /&gt;Even there my God will be&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Though the gloom of night be round me&lt;br /&gt;Though I cannot see my way&lt;br /&gt;yet the Lord will see and guide me&lt;br /&gt;Because unto Him the night is day&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If my thoughts are good or evil&lt;br /&gt;Set me think to hide them not&lt;br /&gt;There is one above all seeing&lt;br /&gt;And He beholdth every thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And ever more my eyes beholds me&lt;br /&gt;And all my ways to Him are known&lt;br /&gt;And His loving arms enfolds me&lt;br /&gt;He will leave me not alone&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For
 I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper 
you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way out is through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;He made me. He doesn’t make mistakes.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
