YESHUA

I'm down for everyone having their own path. I don't get involved in the conversation of Yeshua being the only way. I think he definitely wanted everyone to know that he is the Son of the Most High and he was here to reconcile us back with God. For me, salvation does come through Yeshua.
I'm a proud Christian.

Now, I'm NOT proud of Christianity. It is failing miserable. I remember telling someone that it seems (some) pastors and church leaders are no more than a drug pushers. I STILL her more pastors taking about prosperity than the healing of the mind and spirit. You have pastors that think its beneath them to make visits to hospitals or to even see members of their congregations. This is the problem with Mega churches. Also, why does it cost to get a word for God? Why aren't dvds, cds, etc Free? Come on really. I've seen folks charge hundreds of dollars for one of their sermons. Did Yeshua say to do that?

I recall him telling his disciples to go out and spread the good news and they will be taken care of by the people the come across. I don't remember him mentioning this pimp game I see happening from time to time. And since when is having a big house, a fancy car, and fine clothes the sole sign you're "blessed" by God? This is the message of prosperity teachings. Only once in awhile will they speak about your soul prospering. Its annoying. Its very annoying.

Ok...I have no idea why I typed all of that because I was in the mindset of PRAISE and Giving love to the Jesus the Christ on this day.

The awesomeness of God is amazing to me. Its all about Faith and Love. This week he has shown me, AGAIN, that he is in my corner and has my back. What I'm learning - a problem needs to be in front of you for God to do his thing. I think we'd rather have just good things show up but that's easy AND sometimes we contribute those things to good luck. God wants the praise but I think, more importantly, he wants you to know that he loves you. I think God wants you to know that there is nothing going on in your life that he's not aware of.

I think its awesome. He has come through for me and the Kid again this week. I love him for it! The small things matter to me even more so than the big ones.

Bottomline - I love him. I believe he has my life in his hands and he is still shaping and molding me. I'm far from being finished but I'm on my way.

So for this Valentine's Day - My Valentine is Yeshua.

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE ....Him.

Here's a song that kept me sound. I love this song so much.




This song just reminds me that LOVE is the center of all things.

Confessions of a Recovering Misogynist" by Kevin Powell

In the past few weeks, I've had the opportunity to have very brief conversations with Kevin Powell. Its very interesting to speak with someone with similar passions for community service. As someone who has been very transparent on her blog, I find this essay by Kevin refreshing. I just happen to see this on Facebook as someone posted it many months ago. Thanks KP. I AM A SEXIST MALE. I take no great pride in saying this, I am merely stating a fact. It is not that I was born this way-rather, I was born into this male-dominated society, and consequently, from the very moment I began forming thoughts, they formed in a decidedly male-centered way. My "education" at home with my mother, at school, on my neighborhood playgrounds, and at church, all placed males in the middle of the universe. My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ...

For Colored Girls: Seeing Red

After being very vocal about being Tyler Perry a less than favorite choice to direct an adaption of Ntozake Shange's "For Colored Girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf" or better known now as "For Colored Girls", I watched the movie feeling empty. I've seen myself in the colors of orange and green . I've empathized with the browns in my life. I know yellow and I know blue. Then there is RED . I could spend time examining the issues I had with the movie. I could also celebrate the power of dynamic words used to express OUR stories of various hues, depths, and struggles. The color red, Janet Jackson's character, disturbed me. This development of this character reeks of Perry's own personal agenda. He wanted to talk about the down low situation. He wanted to bring in HIV and so he did.  In spite of Janet's less than wonderful acting abilities, I was interested in how her story would play itself out. I heard about her. Th...
