Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you; for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble; 2 Peter 1:10

The silly season, otherwise called election time is in the air again. In Jamaica it is a time when people get very excited and their true colors emerge, metaphorically speaking. People are loyal to one political party or the other, even the undecided must make a decision. Some party loyalist make it a point to state that from birth they have been with one party and that they have pledged an eternal allegiance to that party. At their political meetings there is no fear in wearing their party colors.

It's a pity that the energy that is spent in campaigning for man is not the same for God. You never hear the type of campaigning for political elections as with a desire to campaign for Christ. The debates are far and few as it relates to righteousness. Not many people are willing to lift the banner for Christ.

Even as many prepare to celebrate Christmas they have lost sight of God. Mankind in his earthly wisdom has sought to give Christ a birthdate even when one was never given in the bible. For centuries the Roman Catholics campaigned, just as these die hard loyalist have, to make a day of celebration for Jesus Christ birth. In the end, they selected December 25 from a pagan holiday in celebration on an earthly god. An so the world began the celebration of Christmas, disregarding the bible, that we should reject idolatry.

Such as with political elections, false promises are made, so it is in the world. When you choose to follow man, the only result is disaster. At the end of his silly season God will decide who runs the government. Man with all his zeal for power still cannot decide anything in this life. He dares not proclaim the future for his he cannot control. God rules over every season.

It's good to be writing again. Even with my busy schedule I miss my passion, which is writing. There are so many things I want to share in the coming months. My fingers itch to type and reveal my thoughts. I have been troubled by so many happenings going on in this world. It's seems everyday is a new challenge that we must face. The world is a hard place, but the comfort of good friends makes it easier to get through.


Let us learn to love someone today, start with our enemies, leave our friends for last. God has called us to be better than the world, so let's rise above our egos and endeavor to be examples for those we often criticize.If we are children of God, let us not just speak nice words, but let our actions behind closed doors show that we are of God. Remember we do not have to give an account to man, we have to give an account to God. This is a lesson I have to remind myself about daily, if I die now, I too must give an account of all I have done.


Each day is a chance to be better in the sight of God, let us grasp the moment we have been given.


Today is that day when we all can grasp that moment. I look forward to being an example to others through my words and will constantly be working on living by those words.


Until my next thoughts, may God bless you all who take the time to follow my posts....

"When you learn to forgive, you bury the bitterness of hate."

He wakes me up in the morning with a giggle,
his deep eyes show the mysteries to come,
searching,
peering,
watching my every mood,
he learns so fast,
absorbing my ways,


He is a treasure,
a perfect gift from God,
he brings joy to my heart,
when the world is empty,
he teaches me so many lessons,
about love,
about letting things go,
about how I should live my life,
God often mention in His word that we should be like children,
I truly understand what this means now,


My Son,
has poured so many things into me,
he never gives up,
he falls down and gets back up,
and each time he manages to plant a smile,
his courage makes me work harder,
to provide for his needs and to be there for him,


My Son,
I pray that I will never let you down,
but if I ever do,
please know that I have loved you from your first smile,
you are joy,
you are happiness,
my love for you has no limits,


My Son, 
I love you...
