Merry Christmas From Author: Terri Celestine Brunson

Book 20

 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year🎅🎄🎁  I'm pleased to share this wonderful time of year, acknowledging Christ. I find myself celebrating Christmas in a different way this year.  As everyone know in my earlier posts, I lost my dad earlier this month.  I thought I was going crazy the morning my dad died.  As of now...I give all my joy to GOD and his son JESUS for giving my family and the privilege to know, love, and to enjoy my father for just a brief moment.  That's all of my life.  Here's a saying, "If you have lost a 'mother', you feel like you lost your world."  That rules applied.  He is as important as the mother.  He helped produce you into existence.  My twin sister and I decided to visit our father on Christmas Day.

When a person lose the most important man (like the mother) ultimately into infinity, you also lose your world too. Cherish your father everyone...while you have him there in your life and presents! My family and I can always tell dad we love him, but...we can never touch, get close, spend holidays, have dinner with, or just spend mortal quality time doing crazy things and listening to him laugh with that crazy laugh.  His famous authentic barbecue...our family will miss. "I could smell it now while I pot."  Enjoy your father everyone.  He is totally special and a very important part of the equation while you're here. Merry Christmas everyone.  It's okay to cry, it's okay to have memories.  My family and I will never ever forget daddy for as long as we live.  #GOD and you son #JESUS keep my family and I in comfort always.

Who will be able to understand the magnitude of losing a parent?  Only those who been there and know how it feels to lose a loved one...especially a wonderful man like my father, Wesley Brunson Sr..  I tell you the truth...I haven't came to reality of losing my father, not quite yet!  "I don't think I ever will!"  It's too dramatic for me to bare!  Especially everything he went through and tried to tell me and my siblings during the moments leading to his death, a day before he slipped into a deep coma.  So many trials and tribulations had altered my life and the lives of my immediate family during and after my father's death.  It will take a lifetime (infinity) for us to forget all the arguments, frustrations, disagreements, tears, battles, wars, rumor of wars and scandalous under handed activities that impacted our lives for the past six months.  It has not been easy for me to deal with or fathom losing my father...nonetheless for my immediate family.  What's hard for me to believe is that this unfounded and unnecessary war continues between my father's siblings and my immediate family almost one week after his burial this coming weekend.  I will never ever understand why that is!  What I do understand is that GOD and his son JESUS continues to fight all of my immediate family's pain, tears, heartbreak, battles, wars and rumor of wars no matter what is being done to us "underhandedly" at this very moment as I post, or unto others who have been affected by this negative, evil and scandalous activity done in order to continue to destroy my immediate family and some of the members of my extended family.  "Vengeance is GOD's and his son JESUS!"  No our (my immediate family and I) business to fight a war that GOD and his son JESUS can fight without flaws, but with flawless grace, honor and with pubic victory.  My feelings are mutual!  "The ultimate sacrifice of the most 'important man in my life' has changed me and the way I feel about anyone who helped putting him in a casket."  It's now personal for me!  He is gone from my family and I forever and he isn't never coming back to us.  I do forgive...but will never ever forget for as long as I live.  I know that I will keep praying, having faith and trusting in GOD and his son JESUS to help me with my heart and the way I feel about not being able to touch my father ever again; nor kiss that bump that he has on his head; nor have him to walk me down the aisle the day of my wedding day; nor have another Father's Day and any other holiday with him; nor talk about his feelings and sharing bushel baskets full of memories with him in private ever again, and watching him with love eat his Honey Maid cookies ever again in our mortal lifetime.  "It's an end of an era!"  For my immediate family...the Brunson name for us is complete.  My immediate family and I would like thank some of our extended family members who were there for us with their support throughout my father's illness until and after his death.  "My immediate family and I will always appreciate them very much."


To The Ungodly and Unjust - GOD's Righteous Judgment

Romans 1:18-32 
18: For the wrath if GOD is revealed in HEAVEN against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness.  19: Because that which may be known of GOD is manifest in them; for GOD hath shewed it unto them.  20: For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even in his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.  21: Because that, when they knew GOD, they glorified him not as GOD, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.  22: Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.  23: And changed the glory of the uncorruptible GOD into a image made like to corruptible man and to birds and four footed beasts and creeping things.  24: Wherefore GOD also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves.  25: Who changed the truth of GOD into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the creator who is blessed forever.  Amen.  26: For this cause GOD gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature.  27: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of a woman burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.  28: And even as they did not like to retain GOD in their knowledge, GOD gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;  29: Being filled with all the unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30: Backbiters, haters of GOD despiteful, proud boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,  31: Without understanding , covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:  32: Who knowing the judgment of GOD, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same , but have pleasure in them that do them.

Living Life In Havoc And Chaos, Only GOD And His Son Can Fix

Book 18

Copyright 2016   All Rights Reserved.

My LORD!  Where do I begin with this?  My heart is so stressed for answers to this havoc and chaos my family and I are going though at this particular moment.  How much more can we take of this madness that consumes our hearts with total animosity? GOD and his son JESUS is the only answer to all of our troubles.  Wow! Life has so many surprises. My family and I can't endure opening another box filled with indiscretions from those who keep the havoc and the chaos in the center of our lives.  It's so hard to fathom and live sometimes with so much animosity going around from point A to point E coming from both my extended family and bio-family.  We're so done trying to fight this brutal farce of a war!  All my family and I can do is pray everyday for strength, understanding, comfort, deliverance from a war we continue to lose every single day.  GOD and his son JESUS will continue to fight for my bio-family and I.  Our hearts and our bodies are so tired of being sick and tired!  What did we do to deserve this much havoc and chaos?  I will put some fault on my dad too for broadcasting what goes on in our home so many years ago and that he claim that his family didn't love him.  "That is what separated the family in the first place."  My bio-family and I love him!  This why we tried to reach out to dad for years from the moment my twin sister Sherri and I graduated from high school twenty-eight years ago, while my brother Wesley was still a junior in high school. He wouldn't budge for any of us when we invited and begged him to spend time with us. We missed a lifetime of Christmases with dad throughout the years after Sherri, Wesley and I graduated.  We were blessed to have at least two of those Christmases with dad.  Dad had his own life.   His bio-family gave it to him to run himself out with other people and families until he got tired and sick of running from the his bio-family who really loved him to the moon and back.  "His bio-family we're the ones hurt in this equation, just so everyone know the truth here!"  It was to the point no one gave my bio-family and I the time of day.  Never being invited to special events, or even told about such events.  If we were told,..it was within days, weeks, or months before we were told of anything that went on throughout the twenty-eight plus years we missed out on everything our extended family had planned amongst themselves.  We were pretty much the 'black-sheep' of our extended family! We will always be nevertheless.  All was forgiven a long...long time ago for what dad did to his bio-family.  I'm praying for all this havoc and chaos to cease.  It's tearing us all up inside; it's tearing up my bio-family and extended family...separating all of us completely.  My GOD and his son JESUS!  "Come into this present situation concerning my bio-family and I!"  Too much is out of control.  "We can't handle this animosity anymore."  Our heart can't take it!  "We're too stressed to even carry this huge and heavy box of surprises labeled with indiscretion."  How much more can my bio-family and I take?  "GOD and his son JESUS...you're in charge of this farce of a brutal war one-hundred percent."  There is nothing else my bio-family and I can do about anything now.  The damage is done!  "We will continue to love dad to the moon and back regardless of the havoc and chaos that is going all around us."  

My comfort:

Psalms 23:1-6:  1. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.  2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters.  3. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name sake,  4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil:f or thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.  5. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.  6. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

Where Is The Sight Of Dignity?

Book 17

Copyright 2016   All Rights Reserved.

Spokesman: Ms. Terri Celestine Brunson

Acknowledgement:  I'm not trying to cause any havoc, or chaos when posting this message. Sherri, Wesley Jr., Neyome, Mom, Zachary and my love for dad is totally unconditional!  What we can do is try and stay positive throughout any situation or situations that are thrown at us one day at a time.  "No love lost here, or anywhere!"  Our true feelings accordingly.


"Our feelings are mutual!"  Where is the heart?  Where is the dignity?  What is the cost of dignity?  Is it worth losing what little a person has?  There are so many questions lingering with in (my twin sister Sherri, my brother Wesley Jr., his wife Neyome and I) hearts, minds and souls.  What more can we bare, or fathom from what has happened past tense and according to what is going on at this present moment with our dad?  I feel that all of our questions will continue to go unanswered.  It is so important for Sherri, Wesley Jr., Neyome, Mom, Zachary and myself to be with knowledge and with wisdom about what we know is truly the best for our dad and how we feel about things according to what he really want.  I had asked dad what he want to do according to his current situation concerning his health and his comfort.  "He told me that he wanted to go home."  Home!  Is that possible?  Home!  What 'professional' care can we all give him, when unconditional love and his comfort is the only thing available to him.  His dignity is the only thing a human being can treasure and then some.  When will our feelings be officially taken into consideration?  Even as I post, our power is totally limited to what we think and how we feel.  We're so tired!  More tired than we can ever be and imagine.  Totally!  A roller coaster ride we're not continuously willing to keep riding towards no where. What can we do?  GOD and his son JESUS has all power in their hands to fight wars and rumor of wars that my bio-family continue to lose in a nutshell.  No love lost with anyone here, or there, or anyone! It's just Sherri, Wesley Jr., Neyome, Mom, Zachary and I love dad so much to the point where our thoughts should be considered and our minds are at ease for dad's sake.  Of course...we're not in dad's shoes, nor could we all walk, or fit dad's shoes according to the magnitude of his illness, or what he's really thinking.  Dad's has his ups and downs with his pain level elevating; with the reality of his body deteriorating along with his comfort to regain what little dignity he has left every single day he remains on this earth.  Only GOD and his son JESUS knows what is totally best for dad.  " His FATE is in the eyes of the beholders!"  There is nothing any of us can do to sugar coat, or to fix what is broken, or determine what GOD and his son JESUS can do or provide even if it's a miracle.   My bio-family will welcome a miracle, don't get me wrong!  No holds barred what our pilots can do in an instant!  It's just...Sherri, Wesley Jr., Neyome, Mom, Zachary and I are so tired of dealing with things we can't change, or try to change at this particular moment.  As I stated earlier in my post, "No love lost in our hearts, minds and souls for anyone!"  It's just we all love dad unconditionally and want to very best for him.  "But...it's up to dad to acknowledge what he really want to do with the rest of his life."  My wish for dad is infinity!  But...I can't decide; neither can anyone else when fate is still in the eyes of our beholders.

My first thought is according to our 'time' on this earth:

Ecclesiastes 3:1 - To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the Heaven:  2. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted.  3. A time to kill and a time to heal; a time to brake down, and time to build up.  4. A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.  5. A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing.  6. A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away.  7. A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silent, and a time to speak.  8. A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

Let Us All Be Thankful For Life On Thanksgiving Day

Book 16

First of all...I would like to thank GOD and his son JESUS for allowing my family and I to have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving celebration with our bio-family and our extended family on my brother-in-law Lorenzo's side.  We arrived late at Lorenzo's sister Vera's new house she and her husband purchased back in July.  It was a very huge house.  One filled with love and happiness.  We were welcome immediately as we walked through the door just in time for all the festivities.  I wanted the grand tour of the house almost immediately when I walked through the door with my family.  Vera walked me around from room to room throughout her house.  I joined my family in the kitchen where there were an endless assortment and difference varies of food.  "Salads, cornbread dressing and giblet gravy, cranberry sauce, macaroni and cheese dish, ham, turkey, baked chicken, greens, Swedish meatballs, etc."  Anything your heart's content, including a ship load of dessert.  "Different assortment of cakes, pies, cobblers, and puddings."  I saw in my head my sugar levels peaking at their highest readings.  My twin sister Sherri looked around for a brief moment trying to decide what she wanted to eat.  Lorenzo brought us plates to serve ourselves anything we wanted.  We didn't waste anytime preparing our plates.  All I could hear while I prepare my son Zachary's plate, there were laughter throughout the house.  Memories were expressed from passed Thanksgiving festivities.  Everyone was having a wonderful time.  I was truly thankful for being surrounded with such love, laughter, and happiness.  Then in a brief moment...my heart and I was in thought for my dad on that Thanksgiving day.  Earlier that morning after my brother Wesley Jr. got off from work, he went straight to the hospital to see dad.  After he came home after his visit, he told our family that our dad was in a whole lot of pain and speaking out of head about certain things he couldn't understand.  "I knew this was one of his bad days!"  What I was most proud and relieved and most proud of was when Wesley Jr. told our family that dad did eat all of his pureed food without any problem taking it in.  My worries was that dad didn't want to take any of his medicines.  The nurses had a hard time trying to administering it to him by mouth.  The way Wesley Jr. described our dad demeanor, "He just wanted to be left alone to rest!"  At that brief moment...I started praying to GOD and his son JESUS for my dad.  I rejoined the Thanksgiving festivities and celebration with my family with dad in thought.   Hours passed.  With our stomachs full and our hearts content with love, laughter and happiness and sleep creeping up on all of us, my bio-family and I headed home as the Thanksgiving festivities came to an abrupt end.  Everyone headed their separate ways.  I was most thankful for my family, my life, health and strength.  Another Thanksgiving was coming to pass and I was most proud to have spent it with such a loving family.  It was a long time coming, especially what my bio-family and I been through for the past couple of months since dad illness.  GOD and his son JESUS ruled Thanksgiving Day.  "My pilots continues to comfort my life and the life of my bio-family."  No more worries!  It's in their hands.  "Happy belated Thanksgiving to everyone worldwide."  Be blessed!

I'm asking for prayer worldwide for my bio-family and for my dad's health.  We welcome your prayers all day...everyday.   I'm very sorry this post is so short!

Daddy: GOD Has A Blessing For You

Book 15

It seems like every time I visit dad in the hospital, he seem so vibrant.  He's had his good days and bad ones.  "Dad surprises me every time I visit!"  Dad seem to bounce back from going down hill...back to feeling vibrant...so full of life.  I realize that my dad's condition will be a very long process.  I know GOD and his son JESUS is good and my dad's healing is on the way in the name of my pilots.   When I walked in dad's hospital room, his eyes was wide open.  I know that I haven't seen that in months.  Being so at the time...dad was deteriorating from his illness.  His voice was shallow, but I could hear and understand what he was saying if I asked him a question.  With stage four liver damage, that was the ultimate possibility.  But with GOD and his son JESUS working their miracles anyone can be healed from their illnesses...especially for my dad.   My sister and I visited with dad for a couple of hours.  It was an awesome visit!  We really enjoyed spending that precious moment with our dad and seeing him improve with his health.  Writing this post and sharing with the world about my experiences with dad and his illness gives me relief and joy.  My bio-family and I pray single day to GOD and his son JESUS for dad's full recovery.   We know dad will recover by our strong faith in our pilots.  Nothing material or mortal can get in the way of dad receiving good health and healing from my pilots.  What makes me kind of sad is my bio-family and I can't seem to get any privacy with him where my dad's concern.  I love my aunt Minnie very much and I know that's her brother, but...I wish my bio-family can have some private time with dad without her being there all the time.   It will make me feel better about what has happened throughout the months past.  I know after writing this post, GOD and his son JESUS will continue infinity to be my bio-family's comfort. Our shield over everything and everyone who didn't acknowledge us with invitations to certain events and extended family get together, or has put us down in the past and during dads illness.  I feel great about that!  So...no more worries here, because I'm not going to dawn on what's passed. My family and I gave it to GOD and his son JESUS.  My bio-family and I are planning to visit dad again, but our wish to have a private visit with him.   That would be awesome!  No offense to my aunt Minnie.  I wish she could understand how my bio-family feel when it comes to dad.  Still...no offense to her!  I would like to express to the world that GOD and his son JESUS has purpose and a blessing for dad.  I know that my dad will pull through and that he will fully recover.  Strong faith, trust, and belief is the key to my dad's healing.

Daddy: You've Been On A Long Long Journey

Book 14

Where should I begin?  First all...I'm so very thankful to GOD and his son JESUS for bringing my dad from a mighty long way.  His journey ( ever since June 22) with his sickness has been a very rough one, not one for him; for his biological and extended family.  For the first time in months I've seen my dad improve...and then deteriorate as fast as he improves.  "It's all been an emotional, physical, and a mental roller coaster."  It's has been a super impact on my bio-family to fathom the reality of what has happened."  God is good all the time in situations like my dad.  Even though my dad's cirrhosis of the liver is at it's stage four, I feel he can and will come out of it.  I can't call the guy that I heard about...who lives living in North Carolina.  He had the same thing my dad has.  He recovered with the natural medications (medications made by man...if so) proper healthy eating habits and plenty of exercise.  "Miracles can happen over night!"  I pray and trust in GOD and his son JESUS that my dad can receive that miracle...if it's GOD and his son JESUS will for my dad to return to perfect health.  I still long for things to change when it comes to having full access to my dad's health.  I look at my mother sometimes and knowing she doesn't have that power to make decisions according to my dad's medical health.  I'm everyone who have read my posts know the story from my earlier posts on my blog site.  I'm not going to continue to dawn on what's past.  "For now!"  My attentions are on the patriarch of my bio-family and his journey back to perfect health.  I find myself in constant tears every single day.  I think I'm not the only one in my family who feel the same way. This whole situation with my dad; his sickness has taken toll on family hearts, mind and soul.  I long to see my dad well again in the name of the father, in the name of the son, and in the name of the holy ghost.  "My trust, faith and belief in GOD and his son JESUS are phenomenal."  Nothing can touch how I feel about my pilots.  In a day or so...my family and I will go and visit with dad again and again until GOD and his son JESUS take him to GLORY.  "I feel it will be a long time from now...if dad recovers by miracle from my pilots.  I have a few of my extended family members who has been ever supportive in helping my bio-family cope with the reality of dad's sickness.  "They've been so awesome towards my family in our time of need of support!"  November 11, 2016 I was told that dad's health is improving in some parts of his body.  His eyes were open limited to how he was feeling.  I was told that dad still isn't strong enough to sit up and carry a conversation, or joke with the family about his #HoneyMaid cookies and what he's feeling personally about things and people.  I speak a lot about dad and his #HoneyMaid cookies on my other social sites.  Whenever he feel up to eating,  his #HoneyMaid cookies is the first thing he asks for.  "I pray I see dad ask for his #HoneyMaid cookies again, because it will mean a lot to me."  What else I can add to this post?  Nonetheless...I will reveal that my trust, faith, belief, and hope for my dad recovery is in GOD and his son JESUS hands.  I will not interfere with my pilots giving and their healing.  No man can touch that!  Not by a long shot.   GOD and his son JESUS is good all the time.  My feelings are this.  "I hope that my extended family and others don't take offense to this post.  I'm only expressing my feelings about what has happened in the months past.  Past situations of indiscretion from some are still ongoing, but much calmer.  I've learn to accept the things I can't change.  I've learned that when I give anything...whether or if I have questions about my dads medical health, or if it's my thoughts of how this whole thing with my dad played out, or my concerns about what has and will happen when all comes to a end from the reality of what has happened during the past months leading to my dad's current postition, good or bad.  I know that the fighting and bickering is totally not worth what my dad is going through now.  Judgment is not in my equation to judge anyone; I leave that for GOD and his son JESUS to fight all my battles, wars and rumors of wars when it comes to what my bio-family and I feel about any situation that we're faced with.  "My bio-family and extended family journey towards dad's recovery continues."
