A Walk through this journey called life by
Tammy R. Jordan
 
Hi there,
My name is Tammy R. Jordan. A veteran of the US Navy 1990-1996. A theatre major in high school. A single parent raising 4 daughters. A person with a passion for helping others. More importantly, my first love is Christ. I love the Lord so much, I commit myself not only to writing to share love and laughter, I write to spread the word. To help heal, inspire, nurture, build and transform others who have been wounded in this walk we know to be our lives.

Sit back, stay tuned I am sure, once you start you might be amazed, teary eyed and moved all at the same time....

Lights, camera, action....

Love can be an exciting thing when shared between two....Venture with me and see how it could, should, needs to be.
PART  1
Love doesn't hurt.
steal or kill
love doesn't destroy
love doesn't inflict pain
love is not something to be toyed
as l look in the world about
and listen the the screams of pain
i hear the children's laughter
and the hurting persons's remains
remains from a lifetime of abuse
the kind where there are harsh words
the kind where there is violent rage there
the kind where brutal fists imprints
or the kind where death consumes the air
the kind where jealousy is present
and hatred close and near
the kind where a taste of bitterness is ever present
yes i said it
there is no love displayed there
when love is present
all seems right
there is no suffering in sight
when love is present joy is spread
not only in the atmosphere
each and everywhere you could go its there
when love is present
smiles fill the room
for how can you say you love me
and hate me and try to destroy the inner being
when love is there
a kiss is a heartfilled guesture
that says more than that I do
it tells the world passion exists
and it doesn't have to tear down me or you
when love exists it doesn't matter
how much money you have
or what you can do for me
or what I can do for you
for when love exists
we do for each other simply because
we do it out of love
love is not demanding
it is not orchestrated
it simply is one of the most beautiful things share
yet so many people believe
love is what it is not
so many hearts have been broken
many tears have been shared
many children are born in homes
that are broken
and instead of love
hatred, disrespect, abuse
and poisons fill the atmosphere
when love is there
there is a difference
try it and see
allow yourself to look in the mirror
and ask yourself
does God really love me
if he does, why
and since he does
why can't I
if you love yourself
you can identify
how beautiful it is you see
for if you love someone you would not
want to see them hurting or in self pity
love is not a form of rejection
or something to be misconstrued
it is not purchased in a bottle
and no amount of money could pay the price
of the peace and joy and happiness
that it consumes
love is free
and gentle and kind
love when shared
will totally blow your mind
it is something that can't be defined
but when it exists
it is a feeling that when shared
outweighs the pages of life
or the hands of time
cheers to love
for all to see
there is nothing more precious
than being loved
if you've never experienced it
be patient
someday hopefully you will see.

PART 3

All are invited, will you be there?
If I told you you were invited
would you, could you accept
if I told you everything was prepared
would you come to the event
if i told you a seat was reserved for
in your name
would you, could you guarantee your presence
if I told you this was the event of a life time
would you, be there or would you find a reason not to
our time is coming, the end is at hand
all are invited
but will all attend
the festivities are already planned
the writings on the wall
a place has already been rsvp'd in for you
yet can you guarantee you won't be late
you won't find a reason not to participate
you won't decide from fear not to be there
you won't put other things before
that which should always come first
you won't let fear prevent you from your claim
you won't be overlooked simply because
you didn't believe
you didn't see the need
you couldn't imagine
the best of the best in your life
this age in time
you could let the truth set you free
see all are invited
and for some reason
all don't accept
and yes all are invited
sinners from all walks of life
yet some seem to have a plan
that they think is greater
than our almighty at hand
yes all are invited not matter
who they are or where they are from
no matter how much money they make
or even how many sins they have done
yes all are invited
but I ask simply this
will you be there
this message is for all of God's children
see He cares for us all
his creations
yet we should be asking ourselves
will we make the time to ensure
we are there......

PART  2

 

I do, I did, we done.....

he said he loved me
he said he cared
i said the same
for what we knew to be love was there
he didn't try to change me
he didn't try to rearrange me
he didn't try to define me
instead he loved me as I was
he accepted my curves
he accepted my style
he accepted my love for the Lord
he accepted my distance
he accepted my patience
he accepted my role in life
he accepted my decisions
he accepted me for as I came
a man
who i fell for
many years before
we have seen ups and downs
good and bad
and you know what
there was something magical
if you will in what we shared
yes that we have
some 50 years have gone
and our fire is even stronger
his heart dances with mine
as it did way back when
yes we were teenagers in love
we were friends
we were lovers
we were so much more
it was as if our hearts were prescribed for one another
the key we respected, loved and appreciated one another
we did, so many years before
but we did make the stand
to say our vows everytime we had a disagreement
to remind us of that very special day way back when
we appreciated the words said
we knew what they meant
for better or for worse
for richer or for poor
we knew obstacles would be present
and as long as we remembered
that promise to each other and God
as long as we meant what we said that day
we could weather any storm
and believe me there were many
from the temptation in many different forms
when the devil tries to steal your joy
he will do any dirty trick he can
but one thing was secure
how we felt about each other
no matter what came our way
our relationship was genuine
it was secured with the love we have for God and each other
we refused to let anything separate
the blessing that God allowed us to bring together
our love for one another
and more importantly
our love for our God above
there is no greater love than that of the heavenly father
and the next in line is that of ourselves
and that of our loved ones especially our spouse
we do, we did, we done
cheers, for our relationship was the source of many to come
our children, their children and their children....
He loves me, I love him, we love each other
we love our family.
we love our KING who kept us when others gave up
When God is for you, who can be against you.....

Be blessed and remember to keep God first and all things work together for the good of them that love the LORD.
Amen
