The Rebirth

I haven’t blogged in 4 months. The reason is because everytime I opened my mind to write the one constant was death. I needed time to grieve, I needed time to heal and I needed to just step back and live alittle. Make no mistake about it I still grieve for my father everyday but the legacy most go on.

Well I’m back.

Welcome to the “rebirth”. I will now blog more consistantly on a array of topics from politics, sports, religion and even fatherhood.

This is My spot .. This is my grind ..These are my thoughts, unfiltered and in living color. Interact with me don’t just be a voyeur but if all you want to do is watch/read I guess that’s cool too. Next blog post will be up by the end of the day.

Stay tuned.

Change you can believe in.

I feel at the age of 30 that I am just now starting to live life. As I mentioned in my other blog, “Life lessons at 30“. I have been in a real reflective mindset. The political climate today has been one of change. Everybody is talking about change, but what that meant to me was not so much a change in Washington rather a change in my life. No disrespect to President Obama but at the end of the day he is a politician therefore he is susceptible to political tendencies. I pray for him daily but he is just a man.

 

So what kind of change can I believe in?

 As I sit here watching a video of Dr. Martin Luther King speak I see a man speaking with such power and conviction. He knows who he is and his purpose in life. I want that passion. I want that influence. But there needs to be a change in my life. The young people always say “step ya game up”. So here is change I can affect.

 I will study more intently.

I will continue to make Gods word the priority and reality in my life.

I understand that what I eat is a form of worship and obedience and I will treat it as such.

Exercise and sunlight can no longer be neglected.

 If I don’t give my wife anything, I HAVE to point her to something greater than herself, in my world that is God.  Her salvation depends on my reflection of God. 
 

Expect the change, see the results.

Once I achieve the balance in my life I will walk into the fullness of my calling. I will have such a presence that confidence,  karisma and the very light of God will reach those who I may never even speak to.   I will have the unflinching eye into fear and death and not just exist but live. I will be able to speak like King and step up to challenges like Obama. I will blaze my own trail and pick my brothers up along the way and encourage them to be men of “their destiny”.

Watch out world I’m changing… And that’s change I can believe in.
