Growth...I'm A Grown Man. Pt. 2: Mental

On the last post I spoke of spiritual growth...I spoke of how God can reveal things to you...How God can reveal to you how the negative things in your life were put there to have a positive effect on you. What's the cliche'? The Lord works in mysterious ways. If you wanna put it like that, fine. Sometimes I think about the fact that I've never met my father...as a child, I used to ask my mother why he was never around...After hearing her answer, I still felt unsatisfied. I didn't understand... As a teenager, I rebelled and I cursed him. I cursed him for not being there to teach me how to fight, how to finesse a honeydip. I still didn't understand... As a man, I learned to forgive him...I forgave him because we all fall short....Mental Growth. I still didn't understand though... Then something happened...I had a child. Something you talk about happenin' but to live thru it is so spiritual. That feeling hasn't wore off...even when my lil' princess drives me up the wall...I look in her eyes and I see the true meaning of what life is...why we are here. How could my father walk away from that? I know now that there are two sides to every story....I wanna know his side...what happened? Regardless, his not being there made me the man that God needed me to be. The father my family needs me to be...I am in no way professin' my own perfection. I am a wretch...but God loves me anyway...And you too.

Growth...I'm A Grown Man. Pt. 1: Spiritual

When you reach a certain stage of enlightenment, The Most High will reveal things to you. It's up to you to see the code...If you are not spiritually inclined, you wouldn't be able to understand what that feels like. I couldn't explain it to you if you wanted me to. There was a time where I was so lost...Mentally and spiritually...I started searching for knowledge. I learned a lil' bit from some brothers that were five percenters. I studied on my own constantly...I learned my history...learned what it truly meant to be african living in America. Knowledge of self...I thought so...Something was missin'. I still felt lost...I was taught that the black man is god, he can manifest his own blessings...There's no way that's not true...it's what I believed. With age, I've come to learn that there is truth in that. There is the essence of God in us due to the fact that we are created in His image. But when God intercedes into your life on more than one occasion, you tend to change your perception. When the hand of God touches your life, there's no denying that there's a higher spiritual being among us...watchin' us....Spiritual Growth. What "religion" do I believe in? I don't. Let me clarify...I believe the ideal of religion was created to further divide us as a people. Not to get it twisted, I speak the testimony of The Messiah. Many nations/factions have done some dispicable things in the name of our savior; who just like his people has been stripped of His true name, true identity and true place of origin. "How can a black man praise a white messiah?" People have asked me that question...and it's that ignorance that keeps them from accepting The Messiah as their savior. Not that it matters because the wicked comes in all colors as do the righteous. But it's simple mathematics...if civilization started in Africa, which at one time in existence included all the surrounding lands, now known as The Middle Eastern countries; Wouldn't that make The Messiah african? Now what's your excuse?
