Take Back What's Rightfully Yours

Young people take responsibility for yourselves.

I address this correspondence to you young people out there who are fed up with being profiled as unproductive, drug pushers, ill-moralled (basically society's worse enemy).

First of all, I apologize to you on behalf of those of us adults and so-called leaders, educational providers, and all who have so badly failed you and continue now to do so for whatever reason.

It is my prayer and deeply rooted hope that you begin to prepare yourselves and take back what is rightly yours -- by developing neighborhood programs in front of your home, forming groups comprised of responsible people that can and should be held accountable in whatever you undertake.

Go to the neighborhood businesses for resources and financial support; get in touch with church, family, and friends; make a stop by some of these funeral directors' offices (they shouldn't have a problem helping the youth). But make absolutely sure any and all adults you allow to help you in your endeavors are held up to the most transparent and accountable standards possible.

God gave you all gifts, so dig deep within yourselves and find them, use them to get to where each and every one of you have a destiny that awaits you, and leave no one behind.

God Bless you in your well-deserved journey.

Stay Alert!

Aways remember: who or whatever you allow to lead you is already at the destination that awaits you some day!

Worthy or Not?

If after you travel your road for acceptance -- be it for a person or thing -- could you yourself accept the finish product?

Aren't We Truly Blessed

C. Our weakness and strengths.

What Have I Done With My In-Between Time?

At the beginning of my maturity and up until now, what have I done with my in-between time, be it bad or good, and am I happy with my answer?

Fields Waiting on the Seed

While driving through the country, this guy notices this man sitting in front of this most beautiful and magnificant field. It had ground as far as you could see an then some and everything was in place for planting -- holes were plowed, water sprinklers were in place, and storage shelters were ready.

The guy stops his car and gets out to ask the man who is patiently sitting out front what is this field and why is it like this. The man says that he is patiently waiting on the seed that's supposed to be brought from some far-away places by a very few workers, to be placed in the ground which is always prepared to receive them and put them in their places for the harvest in it's time.

Driver: People of the world.

Patient man: Holy Spirit

Field: World.

Ground: Jesus Christ/The Word (Bible).

Seed: Men, women, and children.

Few workers: Hopefuly you and I.

Far away places: Prisons; rehab facilities, shattered homes etc.

Harvest in time: Spiritual growth.

To those of you who read my blogs: It is not now, nor will it ever be my intention to force my faith/beliefs on anyone.

The Image In My Mirror

As I walk among today's society and it's many different personalities, some cynical and some morally productive, I wonder, whether it be through apathy or active moral communication, what group that image in my mirror could be responsible for?
