Mother Eartha Talks - On Purpose

Imagine my surprise to discover, back in December, that blogging is a waning art. At the very least it is morphing. I jumped into the fray half a decade late, previously doing my own thing, posting my written musings in my website having purposefully resisted the blogging concept ...because... okay, I’m not sure why except that my stubborn defiance goes back to my preferring to stay out of step with the world. Plus I avoid all social media as though it harbors the plague and I assumed one would have to be plugged in if one had a blog.

Anyway, I have my own theories about this, one of which is that the natural course of things in an ADHD world always must give sway to the cravings, therefore demands, for whatever is next and new new new. How long the cycles take is still the great unknown but visual media is most certainly affecting and shortening the timeline patterns. Writers are faced with having to say what they want to say in 140 characters or less (metaphorically speaking), if they want to keep their readers. Then if you factor in saturation point, which simply means there are too many blogs to read nowadays–so many blogs/so little time–that sort of thing–it was completely predictable. 

But here I am not entirely ready to stop blogging, having only just gotten comfortable with it, though because apparently it is so yesterday I admit I’m looking at the next phase. There are some things I have wanted to do, perhaps now is the time to try them. 

So...

Years ago, in my puppetry stage, I used to write stories and have my old lady puppet tell them to small groups. It was nothing more than a hobby and creative outlet for my unstoppable drive to write and tell stories. Thus Mother Eartha became my alter ego. She was the one who was not an introvert. The one who could say out loud what she was thinking and who I then could blame for any backlash.  

In the interest of morphing with the times, or, as usual, just doing my own thing, allow me to introduce you to:

For Him,
Meema


There is only one relationship that really matters, and that is your personal relationship to your personal Redeemer and Lord. If you maintain that at all costs, letting everything else go, God will fulfill His purpose through your life. One individual life may be of priceless value to God’s purposes, and yours may be that life. ~ Oswald Chambers

  1. It's probably my computer, however, all I get is a blank box. Don't know what you're referencing.

    1. Yes, that's the problem with all the different devices and computer operating systems. It might be a setting that prevents you from viewing Youtube links. The original videos will always appear first on my Youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0qIkULikF8Egd_0maNBUPQ

    2. I was not aware of your Youtube publications. Thank you. Mother Eartha is a sweetheart! To me, a testimony to God's Greatness is that He cares for someone as insignificant as me. Was meditating on that just this morning then listened to this Mother Eartha and was blessed.

    3. Thank you so much! I am so glad you enjoyed Mother’s ramblings. She really does prefer being out of storage and I find I cannot shut her up now. She’s working on her next video.

      The Youtube channel began last year as a learning tool for my younger grandkids. Seems that the more we learn the more fun we have!

      God is so amazing, we are so small, He is so big. Hard to wrap our brains around it!

      Thanks for stopping by! :-)

      For Him,
      Meema

  5. Thank you for your willingness to serve an unknown reading audience. You will likely not even see this comment. But today you have been God's answer to my heart. I am in tears as I listen to your thoughts on purpose. I am 54, a mother and grandmother as well, and still I wrestle with 'but what is my purpose?' You have made it so simple, even a child can see. Thank you for sharing so winsomely what God put in your heart... for me among others. You have brought Him near this day. God Bless and keep you in His love and purpose.
    Linda

    1. I’m stunned and humbled and grateful. I never assume that anyone will see my ramblings except friends and family. If I have anything at all to offer in terms of comfort, encouragement or clarity that might bring the focus to Christ, I can’t think of a single other thing that could be more rewarding. Bless you dear for commenting. (and apparently and fortunately the blog software always forwards any comments to me, regardless how old the post is.) Honestly I can’t believe it’s been a year since I started the Mother series. Purpose was the first one and I was still trying to figure it all out.

      I want you to know what a sweet blessing your words have been for me. :-)

      For Him,
      Meema
