Heaven Help Us

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”   Galatians 2:20

Isaiah's Message
Isaiah Chapter 1 : 16¹ The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

² Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.³ The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.⁴ Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.⁵ Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.⁶ From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.⁷ Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.⁸ And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.⁹ Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.¹⁰ Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.¹¹ To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.¹² When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?¹³ Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.¹⁴ Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.¹⁵ And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.¹⁶ Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;¹⁸ Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.¹⁷ Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.¹⁹ If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:²⁰ But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.²¹ How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.

Based upon the above text the Children of Israel were in alot of trouble, I always like that there is nothing new under the sun.  But to go a little deeper, "if nothing changes, Nothing Changes.  

Fast forward we are now living in 21st century dealing with zenith speed in technology and have evolved that if you were to read the above text you'd think the author Isaiah was describing this century.  I enjoy reviewing and posting archives of older posts from Empowering Spirits but lately its been a tug at my heart torn to deliver a word that's really not mine.  I'm not claiming vision or even that GOD whispered in my ear.  Can't even describe what this is exactly so I'll just give GOD the great IAM all the Glory take nothing for myself.

The politics, the people, the music, the movies and television seem to reflect a whole different world from the one I grew up in and alot of us "Boomers" I'm a late boomer born in the 60's are catching our breath just to keep up which brings me to my current condition my profession is now as contractor and previously a civil service government employee I've tried to reinvent myself as times changed so I've always been sort of nosey and tech savvy.  Always wanted to rise above my peers on my level not yours. See my journey has brought me closer due to circumstances all beyond my control to my inner spiritual being and connected me directly to the source.  I'm not a minister not really interested in that field but I am interested in what the Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth has planted inside of me, a vision to interpret and see the world as it relates to that Book.

So I really was wrestling with this blog because I'm just gonna type and let it all flow, then when I read it for edit and my editing skills are very mediocre cause I'm not a journalist either I majored in Sociolgy with an eye on pre-med when I found out the math was involved and cadavers changed my whole life went in a direction opposite of that didn't finish college and had scholarships but I was very sharp in my thinking and Richard Nixon did more for our black community with the CETA programs backed by federal dollars gave alot of us a leg up even our community leaders who sponsored these summer/winter jobs programs for youth in the inner cities you could get a work permit at 14 and have enough summer pay to buy clothes and shoes for fall or you save it pay your parents cause my mother always made me give her something.  Contribute to the family.  We've lost that in our homes and here in our Nation.

America is great we have evolved over time but not atoned for there is so much harm that has been swept up under the Constitutional rug.  I just feel so compelled can't knock this nation either because I love my country and know no other, yet my curiosty caused me to do some research and what I discovered about myself, my family, and then overall community was from the time our ancestors got to this continent up til now, we never left most of us don't even know who we really are.  It struck me because alot of urban blacks can't afford the best of anything we have HMO's not private doctors once upon a time we did but not in the 21st century they use to come to your home and if your parents didn't have all the money it was okay RIP Dr. Robinson, and you trusted him he trusted you the family paid the bill.  But unless you were bleeding or couldn't breath like me I had ashthma you had the home remedies.  Things have changed but nothing changed let me dig deeper so you don't think I'm rambling.  If you compare our plight as a race with other immigrants who were invited to come and how well they weren't received America always made you work hard for your dreams but if you had some advantages it was somewhat easier vs. slaves who didn't migrate but were brought here from the distance in ships stacked upon one another it struck me that I can't smell my own underarms when I'm musty what must've been their experience yet 200+years later their children, children, children, children don't even know who they are.  

When you don't know who you are you tend to identify or adapt to the environment take on the languages accents and ways of the natives funny things I found out that Africans were coming here years before Columbus trading with the Native Americans and had settled here with them Cherokee tribe South and West Indians are proof of that.  Yet the slaves struggled to pioneer without any assistance from their masters after they were freed they opened up the boarder and allowed Europeans more access which disallowed the freemasons who were skilled and black from being hired and they couldn't earn a decent wage so it was easier to be a servant and get paid if you got paid.  Cause you have to understand they existed many, many years in the 18th and 19th Century without any human rights.  I am one of those children, and I don't know who I am what tribe and tongue colors that represent my family or Africans have family Crest and tribal dynasties yet I can't relate to any of that.  One of my friends who was from Liberia laughed at one day because I was wearing a afrocentric sweater it was beautiful she said "what tribe does those colors belong too", I said huh? She laughed out loud and said you black americans really don't know nothing about who you are then she told me those colors belong to a tribe in Africa she thought I knew.  In other words, she was testing me.

Now we read above about the Children of Israel well through time man has grossly lied about the true Children of Israel Hebrews but it's okay cause we still all related at the end of the day but I noticed that the darker children on this earth have always suffered at the hand of some regime or government do your research like I did if you feel something about this blog.  Because this is basically how I'm gonna pause cause it's always more to come, in 1938 Adolf Hitler who was a monster and beast killed alot of Jewish people the Holocaust was horriffic no words to describe it was unhuman to say the least and I believe each culture has suffered and GOD who loves us all seen all of that and put favor on America to as King David with a small but mighty we stood up against that monster and won but to atone for all they had suffered UN was established and settlement was built to repatriat them to Israel which is they're homeland except it's not, not really but they are converted and loyal to their faith as were the Children of Israel who were forced out Temple was destroyed all that's left now in 21st century is the waling wall where the Rabi's pray.  But accommodations were made alot of them from Germany had already come over to the "New World" and did movies and films, scientist, authors, philosophers like Dr. Freud.  We owe alot of the great things about our country to their creativity and vision of America but to save time I'll just make my point.  African Americans who were grossly mistreated and maybe not in the methods Adolf Hitler used but to be stripped of your heritage, your native tongue, not be allowed to read and write, eating scrapes pig feet chitterlings, neckbones and watching the master take liberties with a mans wife or even the master wife wanted the stud it happened did you see Roots and that was just one mans story.  12 years a slave was one mans story well it was millions of us here during 18 and 19th centuries who don't know who we are so our last names became whoever owned us.  Think about that and when jewish people came they changed their names so anglos wouldn't discriminate against them they happened to be one cut above us in regard to position in life here in America, they were disrespected and hated too but they had one option a right to duel citizenship and to go to Israel if they wanted Black people don't know where to go they never ever offered to get the Continent of Africa to even designate a piece of land for African Americans you have to spend thousands of dollars just to find out what tribe you belong too and even then it's inconclusive.  So all that being said why is it that we've ALL RACES become resentful and entitled?  Why 

- Corinthians 13:4-7

This is a description of Agape Love. It is described as being patient, kind, truthful, unselfish, trusting, believing, hopeful, and enduring. It is not jealous, boastful, arrogant, rude, selfish, or angry. True love never fails. The description perfectly fits God's love toward us, and should be the way we love each other and God. However, I have never met any person who perfectly fulfills this biblical definition of love. The Bible says that this unconditional love is more important than everything else (a partial list includes oratory ability, prophecy, knowledge, faith, philanthropy and hope). All of these things, which are "good" things, will pass away. Only love is eternal, since love will be the basis of eternal life. In fact, when Jesus was asked what the greatest commandment was, He said, "YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND." (Matthew 22:37)10 He then added that the second most important law was "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." Jesus said that the entire law was dependent upon these two commandments

To be continued I love you all, #SHOWSOMELOVE

The most famous biblical chapter on love is from 1 Corinthians:

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. (1 Corinthians 13:1-13)

A Trickle Down Economy defined The Prosperity of Recovery! JOBS FOR SALE FOR TAX CUTS.....

Trickle down like a stream into a flowing river where the reservoirs are waiting to gather. Jerry McGuire Cuba Gooding shouted....

  "Show me the Money! The Quan!"

[taken from previous blog written Jul. 2010]

They had 10 years of tax cuts to create a better Economic Structure in this country instead they created a mess a National Debt our Great, great grandchildren will inherit if we continue w/their tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans... Greenspan said 2010 on Meet the Press to David Gregory the government should [Tax cuts] "let them expire. So when will we realize the cupcake is all gone pudding cup is empty. Now you living through downgraded credit rating and major housing crisis; 2 wars for fuel oil, money created a terrible kind of greed.

It's time we started building something here in USA to Export to all countries similar to US Steel, or Lumber during the 20th century making a difference in the new 21st century global economy we've created, seem we wanna go back to old way of doing business but you gotta remember 10 years ago it was a difference between a car phone back then and what we now call a cell phone in this century. It replaced the old house phone and your desk top, laptops many are disposal and cheaper to get one now with a Data Plan competing for your business & services. 

 While the poorest people spend money trying to be rich. Rich hold on to money most millionaires rarely travel with large or great amounts of cash for that very reason. They sign their name. So, my point [It] the profits from tax cuts trickles down and runs out right about at their Mid level management... (maybe their Personal asst receives a bonus?)

No jobs are being offered to rebuild a 21st century infrastructure; a better rail system in effort to combat climate change and a cleaner more efficient energy.  Most small banks have been acquired by the largest banks no lenders sponsoring ideas anymore for the little guy; or small tiny corporations but the bigger corporations survive by shipping jobs offshore hiding their profits in Sweden or Cayman Islands lobbying Congress and writing their bills to pass in a Divided House of Cards!

Speaking to a crowd of constituents yelling
I'll Give more tax cuts for 4 more years and I'll let the vote pass more job creation Democrats fail to maintain the House in the fall elections.

*Stop the Politics*

Divided, we fall..

Debate is healthy when you debate facts surrounding problems in order to achieve a common goal that benefits all not just a few. America is a land full of immigrants and most of these people against immigration and President Obama neglect this fact now they're flaming more division by talking of repealing the 14th Amendment. GOD is all over our pledge of allegiance, Declaration of Independence; Constitution, and saved the best for last our Money "In GOD We Trust," So hateful speeches and puppet dolls dangling to disrespect our President and withholding a congressional vote in order to benefit only 1 group of individuals. I was listening to the figures of what the companies would have to pay based on profit level of small business $400 million pays $12k more in taxes once tax cuts expire so they rather see this country collapse instead of vote to give small businesses help which would help the really small businesses 1 man entrepreneurs hire helpers who take money directly to retailers for cars, clothes, this is the average worker the major consumer's. Sending jobs overseas is their policy in order to give away $millions in bonuses yet they upset about paying higher taxes, I'm struggling to get to work pay check to paycheck living in a small room. But I thank GOD for it as if it were a mansion and will continue to give Him all honor. I learned my lesson about being humble, and controlling the words the flow out of mouth, and better than that how I treat and approach others. That's not easy everyday. I still cuss... All kidding aside. So this might seem preachy, political, and OMG how dare she go there to those who know me but if you live long enough you pray hard enough GOD can and will change your life if you really seek to serve Him, I'm always praying for Him to keep me humble enough to be lead and taught by good leaders raised up by Him. That I have the strength to come under authority let somebody love me and take some risk by faith, speak life into your life and the lives of others stop being so hateful if you can't help a brother out as a hand up don't comment ~ and for those who feel pitiful or pity others stop that, speak life over that person, you too are highly favored and truly blessed even when you can't see it! Doesn't mean I trust every human being that crosses my path but I can be more patient and understanding while they are journeying onward and if I can assist in anyway be willing if GOD makes me able or given me enough to do the right by others. A hand up not a hand out.. theirs a difference.


Current Events dictates the day, were have we evolved as a country when a man like Glen Beck can get almost est. 500 thousand people at a rally to do what the Klan did for years hide behind Religion to rationalize their sick ass behavior and once again we're suppose to taste sugar but it's shit. Sorry no other way to put that I've heard worse. Anyway don't sleep on these people their are driven just like those irate terrorist overseas and they wanted the war with radical Islam fought in the Middle east but if they continue on this path the level of hatred will penetrate behind our Freedom. Perplexing isn't it how can a land of free people stoop so low. Somebody should say something because somethings terribly wrong with our family. This is the 21st century. the 50's and 60's, 70's~1999 was a 20th century world. Trickle down economics have only brought +1million dollar$ bonuses for the corporate middle executives who manage to trick the investor's whose money lost in deals gone bad. Wake up, the real small entrepreneur is suffering now hand to mouth basically, going under while the only people who've managed to receive the stimulus funds are large banks, and major corp who've bounced back even paid their debt, where's the real STIMULUS JOBS, small business men need that vote to pass today..,. Trickle down for 10 years lost more jobs in this USA economy then back in late 20 century post President Clinton era from surplus +++ to heavy debt burden over 10 year Bush Admin not to mention two wars we basically funded without any help from our allies minimal to see a VP leave office 99 million dollars richer due to his affiliations w/ corporations who profit from conflicts and resolution nation building.

Let's get real Katrina victims still living in FEMA homes and we still building 1 nation in ME and Republicans, and tea party drinkers it's Jim Jones juice made a comeback.. Seriously, they don't want to let the tax cuts for the rich expire so they're holding up the STIMULUS money already accounted for under the "Stimulus dollars" from 2009 for small business it's an election season people stand for something or fall hard I mean hard if those types get power of House.

VOTE
&

Pray for one another and 

Think about somebody else whose condition is worse than yours in a place far and away or maybe even right next door, Praise GOD to be standing wherever you are.

BE Blessed.  GOD's eye's can see everything no man can hide from or get away free...                #SHOWSOMELOVE
