Luke12:48 - The realization of deferred dreams…
Nothing on bodybuilding…just other reflections…this is the side that most of you all never get to see. This is a post from my personal blog.
Currently it is 5:48pm on chilly Monday with a temperature of 36 degrees outside. Today is January 19,2009. Currently listening to ‘Now behold the lamb’.
History is knowledge we use to regenerate ourselves, organize and formulate new knowledge for the future. History provides us with "road maps" to base our future off of. This past year, history has provided us with new information for future years to come. The lamb of God has always promised to protect his people….through struggles and strife…he has promised to never let them fail. In the glimpse of darkness, the Lord provides us with a light so bright that darkness, at times, does not even factor into our cognition. Tomorrow, our world will witness a tangible fruition of God’s holy work. Our country, ridden with the horrors of slavery and continued racism against people of color, will witness another accomplishment of God’s chosen people.
Unfortunately there are only a few who will understand the full totality of this event. Those that have been brought to the light shall see what it is worth and why it is good. Unfortunately others, will continue to hold onto their precious jewels and ideas and continue to be blinded their ignorance and vices of the world. It is only my hope and prayer that people will continue to look towards the sky….towards hope and see the goodness of the Lord. It may not all come as soon as we wish…but continued faith will keep that hope alive.
It is real, the story of how God takes care of his people. In the wake of recent tragedies such as the economy,war, and the emergence of a new cultural identity in America. We needed change, we wanted change. The relics of our trodden past have had their place.
Our ancestors dared to dream. Unfortunately some of their dreams were deffered. But we, not only as blacks, as American citizens pressed on and a leader of change emerged in response to that need.
Luke12:48 states"But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. "
We have requested, we have been given. For as much is required of him….even more is required of us.
Barack Obama the 44th president of "These yet to be United States".
