Why do some people say " I don't see color?"
Some of my friends like to tell me I don't see color. They think it is a complement. Its their way of saying, "I accept you I'm not bias or prejudice." I read someones comment that, "love does not see color." I think I should inform my friends that they are wrong, if they are not seeing color. Unless they are color blind, they should see in color. E.g the colors of the rainbow,flowers, creation and people. When you Love you embrace all colors, in all of its glory and splendor. You look for its beauty, harmony and contribution to the array of other colors that the creator of variety, and color meant for us to enjoy. When you acknowledge its existence, you are being loving. God sees our color and our differences, therefore we need to see as God sees. When a colored person hears a person say," I don't see color!" its an insult to their uniqueness. If you wish to make someone feel accepted that they exist, then you need to see them for who they are, do not eliminate their variety, uniqueness or difference. "Variety is the spice of life" that is a saying that people sometimes acknowledge but don't really understand. Guys, I'm only referring to God's variety, which keeps our universe in harmony. I'm not referring to variety that sin, mankind and the devil has created and wants us to see as beautiful. After Noah's flood God sent the rainbow to remind mankind of His covenant. Today the rainbow has been stolen by the devil to represent something God says will not be allowed into heaven. Don't confuse God's purity of colors and variety with the Devils version. It is not the same. God's design of variety was originally pure, without spot or blemish, that variety is what we need to celebrate love and cherish.
Let's celebrate each other's uniqueness and see all of God's creation as special in His eyes, and therefore special to His body.

Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah 2 Jewish Holy Days
Today is Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, a day of fasting and repentance, affording man the opportunity to cleanse himself of his sins and renew his relationship with God. Sept 16th Rosh Hashanah marked the start of the Jewish New year. Which is both a day of judgment for mankind, as well as an exhilarating time of closeness and reconciliation with God. Both these Holy days of sweetness and days of atonement are the culmination of a month-long process of coming back to God. Two Holy Days on the Jewish calendar.
I've been praying for our Jewish brothers and sisters as God as asked His church, the BODY of Christ ( Who is our Savior and Messiah) to pray for the salvation of the Jews.
During our Thursday night Bible Study of the Old Testament, God always forgives the Jews. Every time they repented and came crying to HIM, He would listen and pardon them of their idolatry, ungratefulness & rebellion. God continued to bless them, rescue them form bondage, evil kingdoms and He would give them victory over their enemies.
This makes me think of God’s grace which always amazes me. Simply put, grace is God’s unmerited favor. There is nothing we have done, nor anything we could ever do, to deserve it, and this is what makes it so precious—and so amazing!
So I'm learning to breathe, to love, to forgive and to bless those who might not deserve it. Let's help each other, lets pray for each other, lets bless each other, let's practice God's mercy and His grace on each other. Let's become willing to give of our self. Let's not just be takers only. Let's learn to be givers of love ,grace and mercy.
Now I understand why Jesus asked his family to pray for the Jews. They are his family and He loves them unconditionally, just as He loves us unconditionally.
He wants us to be one with them and with Him.
Happy Yom Kippur brothers and sisters, remember we too are the children of God. BUT unlike our Jewish brothers and sisters, we have been bought with a price,with the precious blood of the Lamb of God.

Will a Mormon do this? What do we know about them?
It is said that chess is a game that Kings, generals and policy makers play.It often reflects the strategy used by leaders to play the little man, ( the pawn) and all others subjects, to their advantage. The ultimate goal is for one ruler to conquer take over win the game having the entire kingdom under its control.
We have seen through out history this game of chess played out when ever a group needed to be conquered “In politics and sociology, divide and rule (derived from Latin: divide et impera) (also known as divide and conquer) is a combination of political, military and economic strategy of gaining and maintaining power by breaking up larger concentrations of power into chunks that individually have less power than the one implementing the strategy. The concept refers to a strategy that breaks up existing power structures and prevents smaller power groups from linking up.”
Today in 21st Century US we are once again being played. Now the church is the one being divided in order to conquer. 1. Get us to disagree about our beliefs. 2. Widen the color divide. We all know Sunday morning in America is still the most racially divided time. All the ethnic groups go to their place of worship. Blacks especially go to Black churches and whites go to white churches. 3. Now we have a new divide, should we allow a Mormon to represent us in Government?
ONE thing we KNOW about CULTS in America they are consistent, predictable, they are motivated to follow certain basic rules and regulations in order to remain in their cult.
Christians KNOW Jesus is the son of God and that He is the only way to salvation. Christians know Mormons are recruiting with a false doctrine, and they will continue to do that. So the BIG question is: Will a Mormon in the white house bring his cult, his religion to impose his beliefs on all of us? Can we trust a Mormon to not make permanent laws that we cannot reverse ? Can we trust a Mormon not to appoint radical supreme court judges who will take God out of every thing we hold sacred? Can we trust a Mormon NOT to turn this nation over to the Atheist and make this a Godless nation? Can we trust a Mormon to allow religious freedom as we know it, and understand it according to our constitution? Can we trust a Mormon to understand the biblical mandate the church has, to always pray for Gods people, and to stand with His chosen nation? Can we trust a Mormon? OR do we say no to the Mormon because we are divided, and say yes because our other choice is the first black to hold this office? Are we going to let PRIDE go before destruction? Let our PRIDE guide our vote? OK Let's just say yes to CHANGE! Go ahead and change all laws we hold near and dear. Take away our freedom as we know it. Impose on us rules and regulations that we will have to go to jail for if we speak out against it. Let's just go ahead stay divided and make choices based on party and color loyalty. Just remember if you don’t choose you will still have chosen, silence means consent. I suggest stop asking man's opinion seek God's wisdom.
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate. 20 Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
Church TRUST the God of Abraham Issac & Jacob. Trust Jesus and Holy Spirit. Let His wisdom Guide your heart and your mind.

Politics, money and lies to African Americans in United States of America.
Politics, money and lies to African Americans in United States of America.
Politics and money have always been at the root of the lies to Africans Americans in the US. From the 16th Century Africans were lied to. Politics and money took Europeans to the West coast of Africa. There they lied and captured African men, women and children to become slaves, live stock, and property.
In the United States Politics and money classified Africans as a 3/5 persons:
"Article I, Section. 2 [Slaves count as 3/5 persons]
Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons [i.e., slaves]"
Then came the civil rights struggle, the killing of a true African American leader Dr. King. Another lie to African Americans, when African Americans thought the civil rights movement was an open door to opportunity, and that they would be equal in the eyes of white America. The biggest insult, degradation, of an entire race of a people group, the new lie, "We will support your cause, but you must include gays as a civil rights group." So now an entire nation of people would not be recognized for their years of struggles, which should have been their rightful heritage, Now, African Americans were to be classified the same as 1% of the population, whose struggle was based on their sexual orientation and choice. Now the African American nation has been reduced to equality with a sexual behavior. First you are considered non-human, now you really are not significant, unless you declare yourself gay.
In 2012 what is the lie of money and politics? We need to vote for, give allegiance to the first African American president, because his mother was a white American, so this qualifies him as a black American??? Nothing in our presidents’ history relates to and of the African Americans struggle for 400 years in this country. Those whose ancestors died to be considered equal to a white man, a Jew, an Asian, anyone, just the right to be treated equal as a human being. The new lie of money and politics, is that this president whose Kenyan (East African) daddy impregnated a white American woman, is the First African American President. His ancestors did not go through slavery or civil rights or understand any of the struggles the African American experience. Truth is told his knowledge of America comes from his white ancestors. So we could have voted for a white male or female as president. Money and politics support him because he will be able to sell African Americans the lie that they have a Representative in the White house. Another lie that African Americans are being told is that you should compromise your faith, beliefs and theology Just close your eyes and faith and support your first African American President. Vote for him while he takes away religious freedom, and labels you a bigot, if you say God does not support gay marriage or abortion. Another lie of money and politics is that it is politically correct to hate your bother and sister in the faith, who dare to disagree with this African American President and his politics. Who is the father of LIES ? He is having a BLAST watching the body of Christ in the US, fight over this African American President. Instead of fighting for us to be one as Christ and the Father are one.

God's First Family
God’s example of family life was the example of Mary and Joseph.
We just celebrated our annual Christmas season. Some gave gifts to loved ones in memory of the greatest gift that was ever given to mankind.
The gift exchange often times becomes the main focus of this season, rather than the family and loved ones we should cherish and celebrate.
Today, I listened to a sermon from Saddleback Church on "disappointment." It was very inspiring and gave me a new perspective on family, and even how God picked the ideal family to place Himself. God's First Family was Mary and Joseph.
God chose a virgin who was engaged to be married, and even though Mary was already engaged she was not getting "some on the side" Luke 1:26-38 Secondly, God picked Joseph who was engaged to Mary. He was a righteous man, honorable and definitely obedient to God’s word. Matthew 1:18-24 Joseph listened and obeyed the word of the Lord. He was not a procrastinator, he acted without delay. Joseph was willing to take steps of faith according to the word of God, spoken to him by angels and Mary. He was a businessman, hard working and able to take care of his family. Before he became her husband he protected Mary’s reputation. They both trusted God to provide as they went into hiding. Joseph was asked to deny his personal desires as a newly married man, for the greater good. So,he kept Mary pure until the baby was born. Then He raised the King of Kings with his wife,and taught him his trade as a carpenter. Mary and Joseph stayed in the background, they did not out shine the Lord of Lords. Both Joseph and Mary trusted and obeyed God and lived in harmony in their obedience to Him. Seeing Mary and Joseph in this way was a new revelation and it gave me hope. I have new hope for my family that together we will obey the word of the Lord. I have hope for other families and friends, who obey the Lord. TODAY I write this to encourage young families, to raise their children as Mary and Joseph did. I would like to encourage new families to pray and allow Holy Spirit to guide you as you resist trends, traditions, culture, and peer pressure in raising your children. I pray that you will be as Mary and Joseph, God's First Family live in obedience to His word with guidance and counsel of Holy Spirit.

Easter! What is it?
I’m glad Easter is NOT recognized in Public Schools. Then, I don’t have to teach the real meaning of the Bunny and egg. None of which has anything to do with our Lord’s ultimate sacrifice for mankind, or the wonderful benefits of salvation and redeeming us back to GOD.
So, the real info on Easter I took from several sources. “The name “Easter” has its roots in ancient polytheistic religions (paganism).
The egg was a sacred symbol among the Babylonians. They believed an old fable about an egg of wondrous size which was supposed to have fallen from heaven into the Euphrates River. From this marvelous egg - according to the ancient story - the Goddess Astarte (Easter) [Semiramis], was hatched. And so the egg came to symbolize the Goddess Easter.”[11] The idea of a mystic egg spread from Babylon to many parts of the world.[12] In Rome, the mystic egg preceded processions in honor of the Mother Goddess Roman. The egg was part of the sacred ceremonies of the Mysteries of Bacchus. The Druids used the egg as their sacred emblem. In Northern Europe, China and Japan the eggs were colored for their sacred festivals.[13]
The rabbit is well known as a sexual symbol of fertility. In various parts of the world, religions which developed from Babel also associate the rabbit with periodicity, both human and lunar (Egypt, China, etc.). As you may remember, the Mother Goddess Semiramis (Easter) is associated with the Moon. In other words, the Easter bunny symbolizes the Mother Goddess. Annual Spring time fertility rituals are associated worship of the Mother Goddess and Tammuz, the reincarnation of her husband Nimrod.
Later, when this adulterous and idolatrous woman gave birth to an illegitimate son, she claimed that this son, Tammuz by name, was Nimrod reborn.”[4] Semiramis “claimed that her son was supernaturally conceived [no human father] and that he was the promised seed, the 'savior'” - promised by God in Genesis 3:15. “However, not only was the child worshipped, but the woman, the MOTHER, was also worshipped as much (or more) than the son!”[5] Nimrod deified as the god of the sun and father of creation. Semiramis became the goddess of the moon, fertility, etc. "In the old fables of the Mystery cults, their 'savior' Tammuz, was worshipped with various rites at the Spring season. According to the legends, after he was slain [killed by a wild boar], he went into the underworld. But through the weeping of his mother… he mystically revived in the springing forth of the vegetation - in Spring! Each year a spring festival dramatically represented this supposed 'resurrection' from the underworld.[6] Thus, a terrible false religion developed with its sun and moon worship, priests, astrology, demonic worship, worship of stars associated with their gods, idolatry, mysterious rites, human sacrifice, and more.”

Love letter to one of my sons
my dear son,I want to make this public statement to you, since you decided to hang your pain out in the internet world of Facebook, to 600, million members. First son, I would like you to know that I am truly sorry if I neglected to love you enough while you were growing up. I admit I was often too busy being a single mom raising 3boys and 1 girl, without a male role model or financial assistance. I admit that working 3 jobs going to University full time, it was not an easy ride for you. So you probable needed more hugs and kisses than the others did. For this I beg you to forgive me. I will give you hugs now if you will accept it. I’m not telling you anything you do not already know, but maybe you need me to remind you. I see right now you are being lied to by the devil.I want you to know son, I love you as only a mother can love her child. I am truly sorry for the pain you are experiencing right now, and the depression you are experiencing. I can tell you that when I was at my lowest knowing I had no family to help us, as you know I never knew my dad and my grandmother and father raised me. I know it was not an easy task to stay grounded in God when you feel lost. This is why I stayed close to Holy Spirit, God our comfort. He is a Father to the fatherless, and husband to widows. I am truly grateful that He showed to us as a family many miracles. So that you would know He cares about you and your needs. He has been a loving, forgiving, caring, and father to us as a family. He always provided opportunity for us. Son, if your path was foggy it was as a result of your own ideas, opinions and lack of knowledge. The word, Jesus says we perish because we lack knowledge of what God wants for us. If we lean on our own understanding we will miss our way. Son, now the rebuke. As long as you live in this house with me, you will honor me as your mother and God as your father. At 26 years, I should not have to tell you this. But since your mind and spirit needs to be renewed, I am speaking to that which is compelling you to write obscene profanity on facebook. You have disgraced your earthly family and also your spiritual family. Your testimony what ever it was, is now null and void. So son if You write one more obscene, disgusting, profane comment on face book, I will turn off the internet and will not allow you access to anything in my house that you presently using free of cost . You will have to go find a job to pay the water, light and internet bills for yourself. I promise you, if I have to I will move out and live someplace else, and leave you in this house alone to the demons and your independence. Love is tough! Your mom.
