POST-EMOTIONAL NARCOLEPSY


Isaiah stood and then, he stooped;
A seasoned prophet for the umpteenth time, absorbing a message from his Master:
‘Isaiah can you hear me?
I will come to heal the broken-hearted,
Yes, all of them
I will come (and Isaiah sensed him smile)
To set at liberty the bruised in spirit
So tell them,
Tell the bruised reeds to come, with their broken hearts, worn bodies and all;
I will heal all!’
Isaiah stood from his stooped position once again,
Flipped his brown parchment over howbeit, skeptically;
He had to continue now:
For excitedly, the Lord was saying:
‘Emotional narcoleptics can be healed of their visceral pain
They can all have restored circadian rhythms, if they so choose’
Isaiah looked up, this time with a glint of understanding in his eyes
The people  around were staring at him as if they could perceive an aura of  imminent madness,
He seemed to be talking to himself, but no, he was having a discussion with Yahweh
‘But when are you coming?
When do I tell them you’re coming?’
‘Isaiah, you just do this
Make me proud by delivering this message
And when you see me, you’d smile in full understanding’


This is a sequel to last Monday’s post on emotional narcolepsy.
Emotional narcolepsy isn’t normal, no one should be emotionally asleep due to deep-seated pain or anguish. There is a healer in the house! Part of his mandate is the restoration of emotional health.
Freedom calls out to us people! Let us embrace it

#POETRY# MOMENTS

So, it’s another Monday. Today’s poem is on moments, appreciating them and taking second looks at the seemingly mundane. Enjoy! MOMENTS You never know, you just never know There he was last night, holding your hands, Looking into your eyes with passion beyond expression, And then; here he was this morning, telling a sad tale of never! Who knew love could become so tasteless overnight? It had seemed over in less than a flash; So much for the deep love you shared. Where it all ends, you just never know! Memories of baby’s not so far away childhood, Flickered before her eyes like a dimly lit flame Was it not just last summer she had started crawling? And in what appeared to be less than 24hours, She had walked, jumped and taken sandwiches to school And now, she fit smugly into a graduation gown, cape and all, Her baby was now a grown woman And those memories were all she had left! He stroked her tapered fingers lovingly as he wept by her beds...

LIKE FAITH AND LOVE

Gal 5:6 - For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love. The heart and the lungs are like faith and love, their functions intertwined, their locations proximate, the feelings that they generate just as conclusive. They produce hope for the survival of the physical body, just like faith and love produce hope for the spiritual body’s survival. Experiences of today made me realize something: we need faith intertwined with love to breathe as spirit beings, as much as we need the functional capacity of our cardio-respiratory apparatuses to breathe the breath of life. It’s that important…faith and love I mean.
