Susie's musings

Must we understand?

There are a few things I don’t understand and it probably is because as a human being, I’m wired to be practical which is unusual because I love sunshine, butterflies, blue skies, sunshine, puppies, and Jesus. Wouldn’t these last few make me a Pollyanna? She’s a little orphan with an "indominatable will to see the good side of even the worst situations and bring it out for the betterment of all." I’m always trying to see the sunshine and blue sky! I’m out for the good and I’m for what is right, and I’m always surprised when people don’t do "right." It actually hurts my belly when I encounter what we have been through with the election this term. It hurt that people could sink to yelling things like "Antifa is funded by Biden’s side and Antifa is here…" and don’t forget "Dominion voting software (written in Canada) was written in Venezuela and will turn the vote to Communism." Yep. I got that and lots more thrown at me along… With, "Watch out Susie, you sound like a Socialist." I couldn’t understand living under an authoritarian who didn’t seem to love the little people. In Ezekiel 34, the Lord says, "I will tend, gather, give rest… I will shepherd rightly." I just want us to have a good shepherd for a while….. One flock. United. Not gonna happen is it? I have stopped talking, although that isn’t like me. I’m always trying to "get people to understand!"… Like I don’t understand people not being hopeful…. I don’t understand being in debt, but spending spare money on gifts, and "things". Nope says the practical one (me): "Get out of debt first." I am a practical bad girl when it comes to paying interest and fees!!!!!! I yell "don’t do it!!!" Pay no fees or interest on debt!!! So What I don’t understand is, why can’t everybody be just like me? OH NO!!!! Is that what I want? Wouldn’t that be … I can’t think of the right word. You fill it in. It’s not going to happen. When I get the belly ache, I have to shut off the TV and the phone and go sit on my bench. That’s where you will find me and hope it isn’t raining!!!!

God bless us!!! Be one who loves. Be one who thinks of Susie, the "do the right thing girl," and… grab an angel or two and move forward.
