The way up is down

I heard a story of a preacher who was invited to preach amongst peasants. The preacher came up the podium with much pomp and proceeded to serenade the audience with high sounding rhetoric. He lambasted them with theology and riddled them with metaphoric axioms. The poor folks could not understand a word of what he said but nodded politely in response. Seeing that he had lost his audience, the preacher shut his bible and came down the podium in shame. An old wise woman sitting at the back of the building shook her head in pity and said:

If only he had gone up the way he came down, he would have come down the way he went up.

As a young child, I remember one day, sitting in our yard with my dad, watching neighboring children play. A man who was courting my sister at the time came to visit. He came in a flashy Mercedes, and with a lot of pomp, garnering all the attention. He walked past my dad and I on his way to see my sister, without a simple greeting. My dad tapped me on the shoulder and said “Look who is trying to get a wife?”.

God is so big because He makes Himself so little, in so much that the simple can understand Him. The King of Kings chose to make His entrance through a manger, not a red carpet sky appearance . There was no rock star attitude to him.

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death .. wherefore God has exalted him, and given him a name

He is a Teacher, a Father of a Special Needs Child, and a Hero!

If our schools were filled with teachers like Mr.Wright, we wouldn't have to pry our kids out of the bed in the morning. Mr. Wright teaches more than science, and physics, he teaches his students life lessons that they will remember even after they have taken the last exam. He sees the real needs of each child that may be masked by a lack motivation and bad grades. But his heroism doesn't stop there, it actually starts at home. He loves his family and is a supportive and encouraging father to his special needs son. Mr. Wright is is example of working unto the Lord!(Colossians 3:23)

You are Genius!

A star was born when you came out of your mother’s womb
You got smacked by a cold world now you got battle scars and wounds
But it’ll be a drag if you let that stop your swag
You just had a little turbulence so shake off the jet lag
You sang that song before, time to make a remix
Transform from the dung of the earth and fly high like a phoenix
You have genius within don’t conceal but reveal it
And let your dream vibrate so the whole world can feel it!
Don’t sit around with your head down in a comfort zone being content.
While the world is waiting for you to step up and represent!
Cause You are genius!

In Your cranium, you have the same power, that powers the sun. You are pure fire! Electromagnetism.
A bio chemical physical luminary carrying the Akashic DNA of great men and women of history.
So the question becomes, what’s your purpose? Who are you?
Cause what man has done, man can do
So take a look in the mirror you’re a miracle
And there’s nothing in this world that you can’t do
When you focus like laser beams
Your dreams will be felt an
