We All Have a Pulse

We all have a PULSE

Are you trying to figure something out?

Are you trying to get answers to questions?

Are you a person and not a piece of furniture?

Then you have one

A PULSE

It means you’re alive

It makes you real

Your heart beats as a reminder.

The center of this fantastic reality is where the ingredient of choice lies.

Free will

It can be revolutionary.

God allows it

We can use our will for selfless, non-manipulative pure works for the greater good.

But, if our intention is of trickery or ill-thought, self-serving for deceit or revenge.

It can be destructive and devastating.

it’s a balancing act,

We may slip in response to that.

The Holy Spirit reveals knowledge; are we listening?

Imagine the possibilities with the gift of the Spirit; all you need is faith and belief in the triune God.

The Holiest Spirit, with the brilliant glow of our Lord, is guiding us through our stages.

Remember, stages change with different scenes, lighting, happy and sad sets, clear steps, and confusing settings.

Right and wrong stages, but we share our location.

In various settings, we all experience this stage of life.

We all have functional roles and bad roles.

Understanding comes with figuring things out, leading to new scenes and action.

Sometimes you get to play the right guy.

Sometimes you get to play the bad guy.

Sometimes you get to be the teacher.

Sometimes you get to be the student.

Sometimes you get to be the question.

Sometimes you get to be the answer.

Sometimes you get to understand.

Occasionally, you have no opportunity to act.

One day, if we have faith and belief, we get to meet the Director,

And He wrote the script.

He is, was, and will be everything.

No Matter What!

We will have tough times, hard times, split times, and not fun times. We will have happy, memorable, and euphoric times of great joy. People outside your windows will always try to look in and understand your experience. They want to relate to your scene or, at least, learn something from you.

A society that craves knowledge, and people assume they know everything. When faced with a similar event, they become shocked and unsure of what to do. To consider if we can ignore and understand things we could control our life is laughable as the flesh lies.

We seek shelter when life’s pulse slows or quickens. Let’s be honest; we want healthy. But what is normal? What if our idea isn’t reasonable, and it changes, as it will? Imagine a world where eating, driving, and speaking are no longer normal. We are so used to our routine, or are we lost? We even try to protect it, because if we admit it, we love whatever we consider as usual.

But you can rely on what is constant, the one who gave us our PULSE! Life has a pulse, a rushing of blood pumping through our veins. We hope to have peace both inside and outside of our physical self. Our pulse of life gets too fast sometimes, and sometimes it gets too slow. Sometimes we want a break, more of the euphoria; we want to breathe. We wish for life to stay still and quiet when it’s as near perfect as we can imagine.

The pulse is always present. We notice it when we exercise, sometimes we can even hear it. What if the vibration it stopping? The constant determines our pulse, rendering other matters irrelevant. God is faithful, He is everything, no matter what others believe, or how lost you may be in your standard.

NO MATTER WHAT! Talk to God; He will guide you if we are open to Him and His whispers. God decides how our pulse will be in response to the life He has provided, and He determines how others will react to it. Our Father determines your health and vulnerability. His strength gives you faith, love, and even humor in difficult times.

Understand stuff will come against you, but you are never alone with your stuff. How we field the curveballs is so essential, and we will have our moments, but in these moments, try to remember God’s grace. Obey God’s grace for a positive outcome. Let go of figuring out and trust who gave you the pulse. The pulse of His Spirit is grace and mercy, loving one another in the highs and lows. Join in unconditional love, regardless of agreement.

God values everyone equally, as we are all made in His image. Others determine your actions and emotions through judgment and assumptions. They believe they recognize a better way for you to be. They think they can do your role better. Try not to worry about that. There is a reason He did not cast them for your purpose, even in your scene. Their feelings are essential and vital to God. We are not part of every role.

God gave you the lead for this one, and He will direct you. The challenge is to play both villain and hero. No part is less important to the growth He has designed for you. Limit improvisation in scenes. His direction is perfect.

The ending is happy, unseen during the show. Life is so temporal and therefore not surprising we struggle with letting go of His Spirit. Control is a tricky thing when we have it; we may lose it. Too much control empowers initially, then spirals down. The desire to control is not healthy unless releasing it to a power greater than self, a force that will reign in its purpose.

Deny self, yet react with self-control, is the peaceful use of control. Realize you’re never in control when it consumes you, and better able to have control when guided to simple refrain, of a power not of self. The pulse in your veins ignites when released to the power of the one who gives us that pulse.

God loves you no matter what. He gave you your pulse. Embrace life’s possibilities and trust in the God who granted us existence.

The song pulse was written honoring the Orlando tragedy victims!
