Why beat innocent people..I'm going to bed. I leave you with this!!!!
People moving out
People movin' in
Why, because of the color of their skin
Run, run, run, but you sho' can't hide
An eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
Vote for me, and I'll set you free
Rap on brother, rap on
Well, the only person talkin'
'Bout love thy brother is the preacher
And it seems,
Nobody is interested in learnin'
But the teacher
Segregation, determination, demonstration,
Integration, aggravation,
Humiliation, obligation to our nation
Ball of Confusion
That's what the world is today
The sale of pills are at an all time high
Young folks walk around with
Their heads in the sky
Cities aflame in the summer time
And, the beat goes on
Air pollution, revolution, gun control,
Sound of soul
Shootin' rockets to the moon
Kids growin' up too soon
Politicians say more taxes will
Solve everything
And the band played on
So round 'n' round 'n' round we go
Where the world's headed, nobody knows
Just a Ball of Confusion
Oh yea, that's what the wold is today
Fear in the air, tension everywhere
Unemployment rising fast,
The Beatles' new record's a gas
And the only safe place to live is
On an indian reservation
And the band played on
Eve of destruction, tax deduction
City inspectors, bill collectors
Mod clothes in demand,
Population out of hand
Suicide, too many bills, hippies movin'
To the hills
People all over the world, are shoutin'
End the war
And the band played on

Glory glory, hallelujah since I laid my burden down. I can hear mom sing that song even though I had not heard her voice in years. How I miss you mother (she would say mother what lol every time). I remember the day so vividly. It was a beautiful sun shiny day. I was cleaning the liter box. My uncle called I missed the first call but he called back he said I needed to get there it was a code blue. I often have conversations with God and quickly the Holy spirit started ministering to me. My mom was a fighter but i knew she was tired. My mom was very scary, so I had been reading the Bible to her, playing gospel music and praying with her. I watched her as she looked out the window fearing what we knew was inevitable I would say just call on the name of Jesus you can do that right she would nod yes. I couldn't understand why I left my job when I did. I was not ready financially ...my 401k was really a 401 may......but this moment as I rushed to the hospital and God spoke again I am your source. I put out a 911 to you guys asking for prayer. My daughter wanted me to drive faster, but God said take your time. As I arrived they were working on her, her body coming up off the bed with every shock. I stood there but not really being there, my mind flooded with thoughts.....I shouted no screamed I TRUST YOU......my baby was, hysterical and my uncle stoic .....he loved his sister. I think he saw her everyday. My heart was heavy for our family. It would be hours before they pronounced her dead......but God kept ministering to me. I knew. Be strong Barbara, that was my mom speaking. . Remember all the things you spoke to me. I trusted God and I was standing on my faith. He has not failed me yet. I miss my mother so much . The dynamics of this family forever changed.....realizing today that she was the only reason we all really came together. I made her a promise and that I will keep. I miss you mommy!

The world didn't give it to me. ..........I've fought all my life, my best friend bullied me and was jealous......so I'm used to haters. But, please believe please, I'm not a little girl anymore. I make a conscious effort to be who I am. I'm not going to shrink so you can appear large. I have genuine love for all people. I'm an equal opportunity lover of people and life.
If I can't help you, surely I won't hurt you. Your hate elevates..me....I see you....soon it will alleviate....you Praying for you and praying for me too.can

The Question is!
Greetings to you and your love ones. Today if you are able to read this post if you woke up this morning, and are able to get up YOU are blessed. Every one is going through something. I buried my mother in October, I thought life as I knew it was over. Although, I miss my mother so much I know she would want me to carry on, loving and caring for others. I know God is carrying me, I know mom is at peace and with her heavenly father. I know he has concern for me not just me, but for you as well. WE continue to look at all of our problems, instead of looking to our faith and belief in God.
I'm looking and listening to others with problems and the question is "Does God ever leave you? No, no, no." I'm looking back on my life, and today in the midst of my heavy heart, in the midst of my brokenness I see the light at the end of the tunnel. I am praying for my brothers and my sisters, I see God's hand, my hope is that you see it and grab a hold to it and don't let it go. There are so many things I would love to share but the most important thing I have to give you today is hope. I have been blessed to see every thing I have ever asked God for come to pass (not the lottery lol), EVERYTHING.
When I started to pray Lord your will be done, and allow him to take full control of my life I saw me changing. This morning, I was asking him to remove something from me that I keep dealing with, and it keeps me in a state of guilt and condemnation. I ask Lord, why can't I get past this. Why am I still struggling with this why am I sabotaging my own peace....and he answered with this.....
SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS:
If you will release the issues of life and trust Me, I will release you from bondage. And, you will experience more spiritual freedom than you ever thought possible. It is My desire that you be absolutely free--free to be all that I have created you to be and to do all that I have called you to do. Let go and be free, says the Lord. You will never be the same.
Proverbs 4:23 Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.
What God has for you it is for you. Everything we go through, exactly where you are is where you are suppose to be. God is able to do all things but fail. I suffer with not feeling adequate enough to do some of the things God has called me to do, but I do it any way. I get many calls and request to support, and counsel which I don't want the role but I step up to the plate and swing at the ball anyway. Sometimes I hit a homerun, sometimes a foul ball, and other times I totally strike out.
Everybody is not for you. Don't look at the person to the left or the right of you, look at yourself.
Get over it and move forward. People will be in your life just to get a ride, they want to go where you going, but will jump out the car while it is still moving to go stand in line to get what you were suppose to get. Ha! Somebody will get that later.
God loves us! What he has for you it is for you. He cares about you, he has not forgotten you. Hold on.....Now, the question is.......
The question is, will I ever leave You,
The answer is, no, no, no, no, no, no,
No, no, no, no, no, no,
No, no, no.
The question is, will I ever leave You,
The answer is, no, no, no, no, no, no,
No, no, no, no, no, no,
No, no, no.

Still I dream!!!!!!!!!!!
50 years ago, Martin Luther King delivers his famous I have a dream speech in Washington. Wow, 50 years ago today. I was 6 years old. What was I going through at that time? That is not important. What were we as a people going through? Well, I think at that time in certain parts of the world we could go through the same doors. I thank God for the people who arose before me. The real heroes who marched, and marched peacefully. Those who realized that when wrong was done to them, they became more determined to do right. Those who realized it was not about the fight, but about their right. We were not fighting for fighting sake like Muhammad Ali in the ring to win a title. We were fighting for our rights even for lives.
Today as we remember the speech, and we continue to hear on the news shootings and murders in alarming numbers, WE must not forget how the times have turned. WE have come a long ways, and we have such a long ways to go. As we move forward, each step we take should bring us closer to peace to equality. We must love one another more than we hate. We must share our resources, our treasures, and our talents. We must be the change we want to see. We must celebrate when our younger generation does something positive, and help them when they have fallen by the wayside showing them the path to deliverance the way onward.
We must stop turning on one another and turn towards each other. Yes, my dream is for this world, especially my sisters. That we take our power back and recognize who we are. To understand the role we play, how we must raise the bar, and stop going to the bar (just making a point). We must stand together and stop faking it with each other. Still I dream, I hope others are dreaming as well.
I end my thoughts with Dr. Kings very own...................
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair. I say to you today my friends -- so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream
