Greater Things You Will Do

After a fabulous celebration of Christmas and the birth of Baby Jesus, we can now fast forward to the Man Jesus who said those words found in John 14:12-14: “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in Me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these….” This blog comes as a result of noticing all the technology gifts that were given and received when we were…

3.] Learn to Run with Horses

I'm back to Hong Kong saying dear LORD if nothing if I never ever see anything happen, it's fine because I know there will be a harvest.

If I faint not, but at the same time that was patience

You need to have patience.

At the same time I was impatient.

Now impatient is quite right because the promise is from JESUS in John 14:12 in MY Name you'll do what I have been doing & even greater.

And I said, "Now JESUS I'm not seeing this, I'm happy to live here for the rest of my life & see nothing. On one hand because I know there will be fruit even if somebody else gets to see it.

However dear LORD, I'm impatient to see what YOU have promised because if I don't see what YOU've promised the people I love.

Now again to die before they've lived for their sake come quickly now, this is a good word it is called: 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, we hasten the Kingdom of GOD

We hasten the return of the LORD by loving those that haven't yet lived by:

[1] Preaching the Gospel with our lives, [2] Feeding them, [3] Sharing our homes with them, [4] Holding them in our arms

We hasten the coming of the Kingdom of GOD, so I prayed for the power of the HOLY SPIRIT; I spoke in tongues & was impressed with the miracle.

But 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝘆 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, but where I've learned quite a lot about the emotions because we have some Americans living with us.

And no no I'm really not joking you know: Where I grew up, we had them, but we didn't know we had them & we sure didn't know how to explain them, you know.

So so when I spoke in tongues, my first reaction was: Oh I mean I was in a terrible place, I was in a couple's home in Hong Kong because they told me I needed the HOLY SPIRIT--which I said I got already.

Anyway they put their hand on my head & I was sitting on a plastic black sofa, and sweating because it is very humid country.

And I think:

Oh GOD you know this is terrible, I'm never going to speak & they've got two plates on the table to celebrate when I received one was oranges & the other was handkerchiefs for me to cry into.

And I thought oh GOD we're not gonna need either plate you know nothing's happening & eventually I spoke in tongues.

Greater Works than These Will You Do: Jesus Said What?!

We just finished working our way through the entire Bible, ending with John’s Revelation. Before we move away from John’s writing, there is something in his Gospel that speaks to us today. Jesus makes an astounding assertion in John, and I guess you could say it’s essentially about you and me. He says that those who follow him will do greater works than he did: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he…

I don't know why but I still feel like people don't truly understand on what dean gave up for Sam.

Like, we all know he sold his soul, sacrifices himself for Sam EVERY SINGLE TIME he's in danger, gave up his "apple pie life" for him (in the script actually written he was about to agree to stay), and wanted Sam to live in exchange of... every sons of bitches who killed their mom to walk around the earth.

But dean didn't give up only the life he could've had; he gave Sam his everything. His everything, and I cannot clarify that enough, is his soul in the deepest meaning. His feelings, his hobbies, his thoughts and opinions, he gave Sam... everything.

It's really no wonder he was so devastated when John didn't lift a finger for days to help him - dean didn't have to give John what he had, he needed to protect Sammy. From anything in the dark and anyone who's after him, no matter the cost.

The reason I pointed the fact he was really overwhelmed from the dying and John and everything (in 2×01 i think?), isn't because it's completely obvious. I just wanna remind yall that dean doesn't think he deserves to be saved, especially not by John. The logical reason, atleast for me, that dean would freak out and break the glass and be so fucking mad at John - he couldn't bear the thought of his father alone with Sam. Without him to calm them down.

Which is why the scene in 14×12 is so important. Dean was willing to give up his own thoughts and opinions just so Sam wouldn't have to deal with their father all alone. He was willing to hurt Sam in a tough time because of a bigger threat. Cause Sam would get worse if dean didn't make the sacrifice.

I can literally make a list of things dean canonicaly gave up for Sam. And he does that every day, all day, since he was four years old.

you don't think it's sam that's the john substitute? he's more like john

I think Sam is juuuust enough like her not to trigger the categorization of co-protector. I love Sam, but he's also got that immature-ish Sammy something that ticks just enough "my kid" boxes, you know?

It probably also has to do Mary and Dean's personalities being alike, too. Sam's got one foot in the "Dean's kid," circle, and she identifies more with Dean. And so, Sam may be Mary's kid, but she's also inheriting the dynamic of Sam as Dean's kid, by proxy.

(But Cas? From the get-go, Mary's doling out those incredibly high protector expectations, and it brings out this side of her that's both demanding and abrupt. It's fascinating.)

///

Anyway, in season 12-13, Sam is tragically aware that he and Mary don't have the kind of rapport he craves. (Meanwhile, Dean and she are playing Words with Friends.) In The Big Empty, Sam seems aware of this, and he's actually pretty bitter about his inability to connect:

SAM: Yeah, but at least you had a relationship with Mom. I mean, who would she always call? Who did she look to for everything? You had something with her I never had! And now I’m just supposed to accept that I never will have it?

It won't be until after AU Earth that Mary starts to bond with Sam as an individual. She sees Sam as more of an adult after he starts leading the AU hunters and co-parenting Jack.

///

In Nightmare Logic, she opens up to him about Bobby. She has rightly deduced that Sam is not as sensitive as Dean is about John, so Sam is the one she can talk to about it:

MARY: Bobby's not open like your dad. SAM: Wait. Like my dad? MARY: Okay. At least he's not like your dad was when I knew him. SAM: Right. MARY: Bobby's got walls, big ones. I just don't know if I can do that if I even ever put myself out there again. (chuckles) I shouldn't be talking to you about this.

///

In Absence, we see a flashback of her being relieved that Sam has more in common with her now: "the parental guilt complex." It seems like the more Sam screws up, the more comfortable Mary gets with him.

This is because Sam's base instinct is to keep his emotions and mistakes abstract, analytical, and vague. It's hard to bond with him until you've gotten to know him well enough for him to share his actual mistakes with you.

In this flashback, Sam admits to not being there for Jack. It's funny, because it's the beginning of a pattern, because as was pointed out to me yesterday, Sam definitely wasn't there for Jack when Jack was soulless. (In fact, Sam ran everyone ragged on little-to-no-sleep. He had another Sammy breakdown, an echo of his season 8 nervous breakdown.)

What Sam is learning is that it's actually really hard to be there for others when you're going through stuff of your own. (Dean and Cas know this; and they try to drag themselves off "the bench" and be there, even when they're in shambles. Sam? Not as much.)

I suspect that this is another way Sam's going to rationalize John's neglectful parenting. Sam wasn't there for Jack because he was mission-focused on finding Dean, just like John was laser-focused on finding Azazel. (Luckily for Sam, Jack is raised by a village, with multiple parents.)

Of course, when she had things to deal with, Mary left, too. And it's okay for Sam to forgive her for that. I'm not saying that it's wrong for people to leave in order to deal with their shit.

It's just...hmmm. Difficult. Sometimes it's bad, sometimes it's worse than bad, and sometimes it's irreparable. Life is hard. You often let people down, even when you're trying your best. Sometimes, like with John, your own mental illness serves up your very worst.

Anyway, it's especially hard on the ones you love, because when you open up to them, you're showing them all the worst parts of yourself and your own weaknesses.

SAM: How's his training coming along? Mary: He's got heart. He'll get there. SAM: I feel bad. I've been so busy looking for Dean-- MARY: Sam, everyone here understands what you've been doing and what you've been putting yourself through. SAM: Yeah, I know, but Jack's been through a lot -- you know, losing his powers. And I haven't really been there for him. Sorry, Mom. I don't mean to lay all this on you. MARY: No. Are you kidding? It's nice knowing I'm not the only one with parental guilt. How much did the two of you go through when I wasn't there for you? And even when Amara brought me back and I got a second chance, things got complicated. I got complicated. I'm just saying parenting is always a struggle. You always feel like you're failing, but then you look at them, and somehow, they're amazing. And somehow, (Mary holds Sam’s face as she speaks to him) they're literally the bravest, kindest, most heroic men on the planet.

///

In the same episode, we see more scenes of her, and we get a sense of her dynamic with each through these vignettes:

Mary sleeping on Dean's shoulder: This shows us that she relaxes around Dean and lets her walls completely down. She gets emotional support from Dean.

This one with Sam (above): she's opening up to him a little bit but when you step back, we see that she's still parenting him, even as she's busy sharing his load and parenting-training Jack. She's reassuring Sam and propping up his bruised confidence. She gives emotional support to Sam.

And finally, Cas: Cas is the one she actually calls for help on a hunt but admits to being a little afraid of (CAS: "Are you still afraid of me?") Interestingly, she covers up her fear by posturing a little around Cas, "It's just a scratch," and "it wasn't that close." It's cute. Still, she gets physical support from Cas. Here, we see she calls him for help, not her boys. In season 12, it was Cas to whom she first revealed her doubts during her bouts of insomnia.

Treasuring and Sharing

My daughter’s name is Staci. We chose that name because it is a derivative of Anastasia. It means “resurrection life”. And that is what she has been bringing to many people most all her life by sharing with them the resurrection life of Jesus. And, then God surprises us with another Anastasia. My grandson, Payton, proposed to his girlfriend, Zoe Anastasia, last week. We are a happy and blessed…

He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. I am the good Shepherd. I know My own and My own know Me.

Gethsemane

Holy Week is a good time to remember what Jesus did for us. He was definitely crushed in soul in the Garden of Gethsemane. This is a good devotional for this week, I hope it helps you reflect on our amazing Savior, Jesus Christ!

Even though I am torn within, and my soul is in turmoil, I will not ask the Father to rescue me from this hour of trial. For I have come to fulfill my purpose — to offer myself to God. So, Father, bring glory to your name!” Then suddenly a booming voice was heard from the sky, “I have glorified my name! And I will glorify it through you again! John 12:27-28 Gethsemane literally means “oil…

“Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.” —Psalm 139:7‭-‬10 (NIV)

“And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.” —John 14:16‭-‬17 (NKJV)

“Even the darkness is not dark to You, And the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to You.” —Psalm 139:12 (NASB)

“One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” —Proverbs 18:24 (NIV)

“God Is Near” By In Touch Ministries:

“The Lord wants you to know that you’re never alone.”

“Do you ever find yourself asking the question, “Lord, where are You?” Today’s reading is your reminder that God is near, even when His presence is difficult to perceive—and even when you’re completely unaware of Him.

David reflects, “Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence?” (v. 7). In asking these questions, David communicates that no matter where we might go, the Lord is right there with us. What a comfort to realize we are never beyond the reach of a God who is full of lovingkindness, mercy, and comfort.

In fact, our heavenly Father is and has been with believers every single day. We walk in the presence of the living God, whose Spirit lives in us (John 14:16-17). No matter what season of life you are in—no matter how long, short, painful, or easy it might be—God wants you to know you are never alone. What’s more, He wants you to remember that the darkness is not dark to Him (Psalm 139:12). He knows what is up ahead and will be with you as you face it.

Our faithful and omnipresent God is a friend who sticks closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24). He will never leave or forsake you—on this day or any other.”
