When a loved one or someone important to usabandons us we need not feel totally alone or bestripped of our self worth. In the bible when Josephsbrothers sold him, abandoning him to seeminglycertain death, God was with him because Josephinvited him to be there. When others seem to forsakeyou, turn to God as the ultimate caregiver, the onewho will always be with you as long as you invitehim to. So if you keep a open line of communicationwith your heavenly Father and let him know yourdesires, he will bless you. “For if my father andmother should abandon me, you would welcome andcomfort me” (Ps 27:10).One of my biggest reasons for this newsletter is: Iwant you Bros and Sists to know, I have not given upon y’all. One of the most fearful concepts in life isthe utter termination of a cherished relationship.

Whether we call it abandoning, forsaking, giving upon us, or divorce, the portrait is of a sharp linedrawn in a relationship- a line that quickly becomes agreat gulf between two persons, putting them out of reach of one another. And one of the greatestconsequences of being abandoned is that it threatensour feelings of self worth. “I was worthless, so I wasabandoned. I had something wrong with me, so noone wanted me.” But how comforting to know thatGod will never abandon anyone who loves him!!!Write down …testimony…. Entrust… pass it ondown” This is Gods command concerning his word.To each generation comes the privilege andresponsibility to read, understand, and apply GodsWord and pass it on. We need to be the better personwhen it comes to keeping an open line of communication, and I say that to say this: we all havefamily and most of us children, so lets get into thehabit of writing them at least once a month to expressour love and to encourage them. This means that weshould continue to write them even if we do not hearback from them. Because its our job to our part. Andpray that God Brings them around to doing theirs.

LOVING ONE ANOTHER.
Dear Friends, let us continue to love one another, forlove comes from God. Anyone who loves is born of God and knows God. But anyone who does not lovedoes not know God for God is love. God showed ushow much he loved us by sending his only son intothe world so that we might have eternal life throughhim. This is real love. It is not that we loved God, butthat he loved us, and sent his son as a sacrifice totake away our sins. Dear friends, since God loved usthat much, we surely ought to love each other. Noone has ever seen god. But if we love each other Godlives in us and his love has been brought to fullexpression through us. Furthermore we have seenwith our own eyes and testify that the Father sent hisson to be the Saviour of the world. All who proclaimthat Jesus is the Son of God have God living in themand they live in God. We know how much God lovesus, and we have put our trust in him. God Is love,and all who live in love, live in God and God Livesin them. And as we live in God our love grows morePerfect. So we will not be afraid on the judgmentday, but we can face him with confidence becausewe are like Christ here in this world. Such love hasno fear because perfect love expels all fear. If we areafraid it is for fear of judgment and this showed thathis love has not been perfected in us. We love eachother as a result on his loving us first. If someonesays “I love God” but hates another Christian thatperson is a liar, for if we don’t love people we cansee how can we love God, whom we have not seen?And god himself has commanded that we must lovenot only him but our Christian brothers and sisterstoo.**** A healthy definition of love is crucial tounderstanding the central message of the Bible.According to the Bible, love is not confined tosexuality nor is it primarily a feeling at all. The Bibleteaches that love is a commitment. As a commitmentlove is not dependent on good feelings, but rather onconsistent and courageous decision to extend oneself for the well being of another. That commitment thenproduces good feelings, not the other way around.Jesus became the perfect demonstration of Godsunconditional love for us by laying down his life forour benefit.Corinthians 13:1-13 This famous chapter about lovegives us one of the most eloquent descriptions of love ever written. Please find time to read it. Being aChristian comes with certain expectations, and one of them is, that we will love each other. Our Christianconduct is proof as to whether we love each other,and loving each other is proof that we belong toChrist.

Create Goals and take action.
Whatever your goals – to go back to school, tochange careers or to become a Chef, write themdown. I recently met a young man who said hewanted to become an entrepreneur when he leftschool. He’d thought about the business, a barbershop, a car wash, and something to do in finance. Itold him that was fine to have these goals, but he hadto do one thing at a time, and once business issuccessful, leverage that business capital to help startanother, Why? Because if he doesn’t he wont havethe focus he needs to finish that goal, one before hetrips along trying to get the next one. Having goalsare great but once you figure out what they are, writean action plan to get you there, if it’s abusiness, forexample, its means writing a business plan and thenfollowing those steps to start and maintain yourbusiness. And don’t get discouraged if your plandoesn’t go exactly as hoped. Rethink it, rework it andthen take action, otherwise your simply dreaming.

Lets think about it!If I arn you, Young G, all the time, about the majorlosses you will suffer and cause contributing to thecorruption of this life, it will not likely make animpression on you (…of course we actually believewere created by pain anyway) I feel that because wecant trust a lot of the vicarious knowledge (meanknowledge learned through others experiences)passed on by some of our OG’s and depending onour measure of tolerance, sensitivity and stayingdown strength. We still have to live through themadness. What is the Psychology the influencebehind this? The overwhelming attraction that makesus go there and do that “ so we can claim “been theredone that” What are we thinking or feeling when weknowingly commit an act we know is wrong,whereas, if we think back on history of the act werealize that it never once resulted in success. Why dowe move throughout life like this! And after beingshot, shooting, banged and being banged, jacked or jacking and then spending time(s) in prisons. Whatmakes us plan to do wrong in a better way? How canwe better do wrong? To what degree does peerpressure indecision and confusion, as opposed tothinking, analyzing or seeking guidance affect ourdecision to live, bettering whats wrong in our life?Now try to imagine what the person whos workedand struggled all through life, what type of factorsweigh in on their decision making process what is thetrue reality which influences their struggles tosucceed. Then remember the fact that we’ve had thechoice to go either way in life, regardless of theexcuses, where you can place the blame on others ora certain situation. Think of why others turned downthis way of life, when they’ve had tochoose/undertake the same decision making process.
