Cutting off that friend could be cutting off your joy, peace and happiness!

Who Runs From Love?Tell me You?

Sometimes we have arguments with our family and friends. Sometimes we make a decision

not to talk to that family member or friend anymore. We cut them off, throw away their number, wipe them from our cell phone memory like the tide coming ashore washing away sand castles. Where did we learn to do that? Where did we learn it’s okay to love them today and act like you hate them tomorrow? Perhaps while we are children in grade school? If you are a parent, has your son or daughter come home upset because some other child said they didn’t want to be his or her friend any more? To take it a step further, children dangle friendship in other children’s face like an hypnotic pocket watch while repeating lines like, “if you don’t let me play with your toy I’m not going to be your friend.” Girls are the worst I think, because not only will they stop being Susy’s friend, they will also influence their friends to stop being Susy’s friend, no reason required. The bottom line is we seem to have this attitude of separating ourselves from the love of others ingrained in our minds from childhood. .

.

This action breaks the rule of separation. The rule of separation states simply that you will never let anything separate you from the love of others. When you separate yourself from someone’s love you do harm to yourself as well as the other person. Here’s how it works: Tommy stops talking to Michael, Michael finds out about a job opening that

pays good money, but they are only hiring today.Tommy is unemployed so Michael attempts to call Tommy, but Tommy isn’t answering Michaels calls. The result of Tommy’s actions is, Tommy doesn’t find out about the job opening, continues to live a broke life, gets dumped by his girlfriend because he can’t afford to take her anywhere, gets his car impounded because he didn’t pay the registration and or car insurance, and his mother whom he lives with gives him a thirty days notice to vacate the premises for lack of financial contribution to the household. Now if Tommy had only answered that call he wouldn’t be sleeping in a tent under the freeway. Some people call that karma, but it’s simply the law of separation, common sense really. You can’t go through life cutting off people who want to love you, it’s self-destructive.

The principle of separation states, you are never allowed to separate yourself from anyone’s love, they may separate from yours but you cannot separate from them. You can’t have enemies, even if they see you as an enemy. You can’t hold a grudge, even if they hold a grudge against you and you can’t live with bitterness. To separate yourself from the love of others is to separate yourself from the love of God. The first law is Love the Lord thy God with all your mind and soul. The second law is to love your neighbor. This law of sep-aration is found in Romans 8:35. “Who shall sepa-rate us from the Love of Christ?” The answer: you, when you separate yourself from the love of others.

We so often in our society make things black or white, and how can we not? Every time they report something on the news it’s broken down into a black, white or brown problem. For example they might say, heart disease will kill X number of Americans this year, then they’ll let you know that most of them will be black because more blacks suffer from high blood pressure than whites.

It’s normal that you see even the smallest and simplest of things in terms of black or white, as if something can be broken down into categories of dos and don’ts, blacks and Hispanics do, whites don’t. When you look at all the young black kids skateboarding, what is that, is that a white thing that black kids are doing? How in the world can you see this as black boys acting white, aren’t skateboards created for all young men to enjoy regardless of the zip code your family lives in?

Living outside L.A., I went through high school listening to heavy metal, the beginnings of rap music pretty much passed by without me knowing about it. I did feel like I was doing a white thing but having the knowledge that it was black artist that created rock and roll, I was able feel like it was okay despite the industry breaking us (Americans) into groups and defining what is black music and what is white music. When rap started it was classified as a black thing but now you see major companies using rap culture to sell products and it is enjoyed by everyone. Maybe it’s a case of, “if it will make big companies money it’s not a black or white thing, it’s a money making thing.”Don’t worry I’m still on the subject of skateboarding, trust me I’m going to tie music into this story. Things changed when some rap/hip hop music artist that grew up enjoying skateboarding stayed true to themselves and said through their music, hey, we’re black but we like riding skateboards, they set things in motion. Now every where you look you see black kids riding skateboards and that’s great. Got to admit, I’m not a fan of the skinny jeans but, it’s better kids are outside riding skateboards rather than sitting on the couch playing the latest violent video game or watching music videos that degrade women.I just showed my age with that line didn’t I? Okay so what, yeah I grew up when a record was really a record and not a CD. So what.

I say we need more of this crossing over into “other worlds.” I want to see forty-five percent of the kids participating in the winter X games be 15% Black, 15% Hispanic, 15 % other. I want to see more black men in the ultimate fighter ring. I want so many blacks on the golf course that you could care less if Tiger retires. Whatever sport pays money, all Americans should be a part of it, except for Hockey, I hate hockey, and maybe Lacrosse too, I don’t get that one.I want to see all races in the pool and on the snow, and I can’t wait for Mark Sanchez (go SC) to be the first Hispanic quarterback to win the super bowl since Jim Plunkett. I took my daughter to the snow, she looked around and said, “we are the only black people here,” sadly she was right. She also said about Hispanics, “they look like they woke up, dressed for school, but on the way took a left and headed to the snow.” Oh come on, you know that’s funny. I threw that in because I wanted to say, if you go to the snow “non white races,” please notice that white people wear “snow gear.”

You know what I just realized America, if we keep this up we might actually blend into one nation under God indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Yeah I got all that from skateboarding! I’m a deep dude.

Skateboarding is for every one.

If he’s a good man he won’t call you at 11 O’Clock for sexI re-wrote this article several times and then just deleted it. I couldn’t get it to say what I wanted, couldn’t get it to express my thoughts in a way that would get across the purpose of the article. I finally decided instead of writing my thoughts and opinions I would let you write your own article. After all it’s your life, you pick the ending, and by ending I mean heaven or hell.I know, ministers don’t bring up hell any more, it’s so depressing. Sorry, my bad.

Here are the requirements for your story:1- You have to list what you get in the long run from of having sex with someone who doesn’t love/value you enough to give you their name. (It feels good is not an acceptable answer. Dig deeper)

2- How much respect do you want or need?

3- What do you see in your future? Do you see a husband, a father, a friend or do you see a lover, a baby’s daddy and someone who puts themselves first?

It’s terrible being alone but this is a Christian paper and the bottom line is you can’t live that way (sex outside of marriage) and still claim to be in God’s army. In case you get confused on the rules, read the scripture to the right in white letters black background.(Grab a pen and write your story below)

Flee fornication , Every sin that a man doeth is

A girl at work, after hearing me talk about people coming to church dressed like they just don’t care said, and I quote her, “people should be able to go to church the way they feel comfortable, I hate people who judge.” My answer to her is this: judge, I don’t have to judge, there’s nothing to judge, only an observation to be made. You know a worker by the uniform they are wearing. Police officers and firemen are recognized by their uniform. Prostitutes and pimps are known by their uniform, so if you come to church dressed like you really don’t care, you send the message that, well, you really just don’t care. If you have enough belief in the possible existence of God to get up and go to church then you should have enough respect for God to at least dress no worst for church than you do on the job.

You can’t go on your job dressed any way. On my job if you don’t dress business casual you’re going home. People will say, “maybe they don’t know better.” No one goes on a job interview with your jeans hanging down, wearing a kango hat, not if they want the job they don’t. People know how to dress for an interview to present the right image but for God you come as you want. I sometimes see people in church that would have to dress up in order to get in to a club. The guy at the club door would say to them, “you might go to church like that but this night club has standards.” If you didn’t catch it, that’s a hit at pastors who don’t hold their members to any standards. Sad that a club door man would hold people to a higher standard than a pastor of a church. That was a hard hit, are you sure you want me to say that Holy Spirit? And the Spirit of God says yes, tell the truth.

When you first go to church, you might not know God so your lack of respect for what you don’t know is understood, but after you know Jesus, you should see the standard that is held up in the church and make the adjustment out of respect. If you can’t afford dress clothes, it’s the function of the church to donate appropriate clothing. It doesn’t have to be up to your fashion taste, just decent. I’m not saying wear suites and ties, I hate suits and ties myself, but you can still wear some dress casual pants, shoes and a shirt with a collar. (No sagging pants). We can say this as a bottom line, if it’s all about you then great, but as a Christian it should be all about HIM. Where’s the love? Where’s the respect? Where’s the fear?

What would a spiritual paper be without an offer of reconciliation?

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Eeph. 2:8,9

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Is your Church only in the “Church”?

Naked and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

When saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

In as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

(Matthew 25: v36, 38, 40)

You are the church butif your church is only in the building we call church

you might be missing the point?

If you were sick or in prison,would you want your fellow Christians to visit you?

You are saved by faith, but the measuring stick for faith is works.
