What Kind of Fruit Would You Be?

I want to be the kind of fruit that prospers. I want to be the kind of fruit who grows in wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. I want to be the kind of fruit that is always ripe and ready to help anyone who needs my help. I know I cannot be that kind of fruit without staying connected to the true vine. As long as I stay connected to the true vine, I can do all things. I do not want to be the kind of fruit that withers just because of what some one says about me. If we worry about what everything someone says about us, we will always be negative; we will not be able to produce good fruit, and that is what the enemy wants. When we focus on all of the good things of God, our mind will be focused to do good things, but when we focus on all of the bad things that has happened to us, we cannot produce good fruit, it will be negative.

According to the Word of God, John 15:5-9 tells us,” I am the vine, you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit, apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.”

When we remain in the love of Jesus Christ, there is nothing that God will not do for us, He will do everything for us. We do not want to be like the branches that fall away. God receives the glory for everything He does for us. When we remove ourselves from Jesus, we are walking alone in outer darkness. We do not know which way to go in our lives, we are lost without a shepherd to lead and guide us in the way we should go. Sometimes when sheep are together, there is always one that wonders off, and if the others see it they are going to follow that one who has wondered away. The shepherd will go and find those that which were lost and bring them back to the sheepfold to safety. When we think about it, we were all once lost sheep wondering around alone without a shepherd to lead and guide us. We had no one to lead us back in the right direction. See, the enemy will distract us with things that look good to us to take our focus off of the right things that we should be doing for the Kingdom of God. He will use our past, heartache, pain, anxiety, depression, weaknesses, or whatever he can use to take our focus off of what is important concerning our eternal life with Jesus Christ. We have to rebuke him and keep on focusing on what is important. We have to stay on the straight and narrow even though it gets hard sometimes. We have to make time to spend with the Lord. I know that life happens everyday, but we just cannot ignore Who we need when we know that we need Him everyday. If we want to be prosperous and produce good fruit, we must stay connected to the true vine who is Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.

STILL FIGHTING THE SIDE EFFECTS OF THE COVID-19 JOHNSON & JOHNSON VACCINE

I would have never thought that I would still be fighting the side effects of this vaccine. I thought it would have vanished by now, but nevertheless it has not. Every day is different. I feel like I am on an emotional rollercoaster every day. The tiredness, weakness, and fatigue is a complete headache. Not sleeping good is even worse. The confusion is draining; it is as if I cannot keep up with the days and the dates. I know that I did the right thing by getting vaccinated, but I never thought I was going to have to go through this, I believe it is worse than having COVID itself, because this is just as frightening. I feel like I have been in total hell since I received the vaccine. I was not prepared for this outcome. Had I known then what I know now, I just don’t think I would have gotten it. It just hits you all at once when you are least expected. There is nothing wrong with being vaccinated, but just know that there are side effects. From what I have seen, it effects people differently. Everyone does not have the side effects from it because everyone is different. I am not saying to not get vaccinated, but I am just sharing how it has made me feel. There is nothing wrong with taking pain medication for the pain in the arm where it is given, it will eventually go away. I for one will be glad when I can feel normal again like my regular self. It is very depressing feeling like this for fourteen days. It is not fun at all. It is like I am on a boat sailing to nowhere. The smell of food often makes me sick, and just looking at it makes me emotional; that is part of the side effects from the vaccine. At least I am protected even if I feel the way I do. I am more comfortable going places not having to wear my mask all of the time unless I want to. The fact still remains that no one will enter my residence without having on their mask.

I still follow all of the necessary procedures that we have to follow. One can never be to careful when it comes to protecting yourself, and your family. You just never know who you are around that just may have it; it is not like they are going to say that they do, and the next thing you know you have it. If you have not been vaccinated, think about it before you make any decisions, because it is your choice. No one can make you get something that you do not want. I am just glad that I made the decision to make the right choice for myself to protect myself. I just hope and pray that all of the new born babies were born healthy and strong, and COVID free. When they are old enough to be vaccinated, I hope the parents think about it and ask questions about it before making the decision to have their children vaccinated. No one knows how the side effects will effect a child; I am grown and I did not know how it was going to affect me, and I asked questions before, during, and after it was all said and done, but I was told that there would just be soreness where I got the shot. I got surprised out of the blue. Some days has been better than others, but I have forgotten what normal feels like. I hope to experience normality again soon. I have not worked since I received the vaccine, the side effects will not let me because of the weakness in my body. I know that when it is all said and done I will be alright. I thank God for every day that HE has given me to fight through this. It makes me feel good to know that I am not alone on this journey to recovering from this.

I hate the sudden bouts of pain and upset stomach, the nausea that follows it…it does not feel good, to be honest it is very sickening to me. It makes me feel completely drained. It literally puts a strain on my heart that makes me feel even worse. I often wonder did the company consider how the side effects would make people feel. Did they even think it through, or test it on something like a lab rat just to see how it would affect it? There are so many questions going through my mind concerning this. I wonder what the side effects were for the first vaccine. I wonder how it made people feel, and when did the side effects leave. If you took the first two shot vaccine, tell me how it made you feel. Leave it in the comment section, I really want to know. Be as specific as you can. I just need something to compare this to.

I will continue to do my research on it though. I am doing it so I can inform people on what to expect after they receive the vaccination. I do not want them to be in the dark like I was. As I said before, it is the choice of the person whether they get it or not. It is not good to be uninformed, because a person does not know what to expect in the out come. It is only right that a person is informed on things they do not know.

Everyday I have to ask the Lord to give me strength. I have to ask Him for HIs help just to make it through the day. I have to ask Him to help me to rest at night. I do not know what I would do without Him helping me. When I was at the hospital the other day, I asked Jesus to come and see about me. I was very afraid because of what I was going through at the time. One thing I can truly say is that He calmed my spirit. He gave me the peace I needed to relax even though I was filled with medication. I knew He was there because I felt His presence around me. I was no longer afraid. When God gives you peace, and calms the storm you are facing in your life, there is nothing like it. Even though I am facing this, I know that there is hope for tomorrow. I know that it only has to get better after a while. Whatever I have to face, I know I am not facing it alone. I know that Jesus is right by my side. He will carry me through it. I will make it through this storm that feels like a tornado minute by minute.©2021

SUMMER WEATHER

Lately it has really felt like Summer, but there has been a few showers. I for one do not like this heat, it is like taking a drink of a glass of heat when you go outside. The wind blows but the air is still hot, it is even hot in the shade. The mosquitos are so bad. It is as if they are waiting for you to come outside so they can have a feast. Feeling the way that I do, I do not think I will be going outside any time soon unless I have to. This is one time I just wish it would pour down raining and cool it off outside, but sometimes when it rains in the Summer it gets hot afterwards. I would rather be inside where it is cool and comfortable. All I need are my favourite things that makes me happy. Those things are my computers, phones, and my art, and watching my favourite shows on television, or on my phone. Sometimes I even feel like writing poetry, or playing some music on my keyboard. There are lots of things I can do to keep myself occupied so I do not have to go outside to do things. I am already ready for the Fall season to come. I love the fall because I was born in the Fall. I love how the air smells, the different colours of the leaves in Autumn. I love being outside during those seasons. I wish I could say that about Summer, but I can’t. I love to smoke meat, and chill outside when it is not so hot though. Summer can be fun, but you just have to be careful in the heat. There are so many things to worry about, and it keeps a person from having the fun they want to have. A lot of accidents happen on the highways because of drinking and driving. If there is going to be drinking, make sure there is a designated driver to drive you around, especially if you are out someplace else, and if you are at home drinking, do not leave. Do not even think about getting behind the wheel of any vehicle. It is better to be safe than sorry. I know you may want to go and drive around while you are feeling good, but just think about the other people who are out there to. Think about the teenagers who are out there, and others who do not drink and drive. Once an accident happens, sometimes there are fatalities. When that happens there is no coming back from that. Even if there are no fatalities, that will still be something to think about; something that will never leave your mind, so please have your Summer fun, but do it and be careful. Be responsible. ©2021

SUMMER SUNSET

A long day has come to an end and it is time to wind down. It is time to relax and be at peace with yourself, and your Creator. Looking at all of the beauty that is all around you, the sunset is the most beautiful one ever seen. You know that there will be another one, but not quite like this one. Heaviness visits your eyelids as sleep calls you to dream. Dream peacefully beautiful dreams that sends a smile to your face, not knowing. Awaken to a new day that has never been seen before, the sun greets you as you walk outside of your door. Smell the morning air, watch the morning clouds pass by as the sun kisses the morning sky. Take in a deep breath and greet the day, you suddenly know that everything is going to be ok. Turning on something soft to listen to while sipping coffee or tea while thinking about something sweet.

Turning on the oven to preheat, the smell of sweets fills the air. Nothing heavy, but light. When it is all said and done, the morning treat is ready to eat, and you are ready for the Summer Sunset. ©2021
