The Love Of A Champion

Good morning and Happy Friday everyone. As I continue this month of I love you in August ( based on John 13:34-35 ) I wanted to share a little of my life as of now. In the picture that I am using for this blog I have my friend Ms. Angela Francis sitting next to me. In the years that we have been friends I have grown mentally and spiritually. I have grown to love Angela for being who see is and would do anything for her and she has proven time and again she would do it for me. That being said there is a special love that God has shown to us when you turn your life over to him and profess that Jesus is your savior. For all that I have gone thru in my life I want to return the love that God has shown me in a fashion that represent him. I want God to know I intend to show him the Love of a Champion each day that I arise.



In these times we have love for almost everything. Some of us loved watching the Olympics. Most of us loved being out of school this summer. Even more of us loves that God saw fit to love us. God is such an awesome God that he allows us free will ( Joshua 24:15 ) to chose to love him or not. I have countless stories on how God has brought me from a mighty long way. So for me to just give him just plain love for me will not do. I am going to love on God with the Love of a Champion. A love above all other love. One that will never go away. I am going to use three people in the Bible to show how they loved on God as a Champion. Jacob, Mordeci  and Paul.

In the book of Genesis I see my first example of Love of a Champion. I see it in the story f Jacob and Rachel. In the 29th Chapter we see where Jacob goes to do the proper thing and goes to Rachel's father, Laban to marry her. He shows the love of a Champion by working seven years as if it were a few days. After being tricked by Laban he still worked another seven years to be with Rachel. Sometime your business ideas may be stagnant, your dealings with the government may not be going well, your scripts for the television shows or you poetry or graphic arts may not be noticed but do not give up. When you have the Love of a Champion God notices. If you have the love of a Champion for God nothing is impossible.

In the book of Esther we see the story of Mordecai. Mordecai had the love of a Champion as he saved the king from getting killed, refused to bow down to a man, raised a queen and saved his people from extermination. Yes Esther had to do the work in order to get the king to change his mind but Mordecai stood in the way of impending death by not following the King's decree and bowing to Haman. But the same gallows that Haman built for Mordecai was used on Haman and the position that Haman had went to Mordecai. The love a champion can change the way you look at family members who are still doing things not right in the eyes of God but love on them. Sometimes we look at our religion processes and are not happy but we must continue to love. Love of a Champion is what God is owed but how great is it when God returns that love.


The last person who showed the love of a champion for God was Paul. When he was Saul he did the work of the enemy. As we look in Acts the 9th Chapter he was doing his job again when God showed him love and made his way straight. Paul the showed the love of a champion for Christ as he is responsible for at least 13 books in the new testament showing the love of a champion for God and  Jesus and the Holy Spirit. He was beaten, bitten by a snake, jailed and laughed at but still showed the love of a champion to God. We need to show love in the education areas by staying involved no matter what. We need to push social media further to spread the Gospel. God has unlimited love for us. We need to have the love of a champion for him.
In closing we know that God is our Champion. He sent his Son to to die for our sins. He left the Holy Spirit here to guide us in our lives. He has done so much for me  as I know he has done for you. As I extend love to all of you I urge you to give God your championship love each and everyday just for waking us up. That shows his love for us daily. I love you as a Champion God.

Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. This past month I was riding with my friend Angela Francis. On this particular day she had to go get her hair done and her friend Roxanne' shop. I had done this numerous times in the past so when I was getting ready to leave I told Angela I was going to the forest preserve to sit and wait as she got her hair done. At the forest preserve I would be able to do two things while I was there. I would be able to think of ideas for my blog, my radio show and my daily postings on Facebook. When you attempt to write you sometimes get writer's block and need to get to a different atmosphere ( Hmmm Writer's Block may be a blog soon LOL ). The other reason I wanted to go to the forest preserve is because it was hot that day and I needed some shade. So as I approached the forest preserve I put on my left turn signal and waited for traffic coming southbound to clear. After

Good morning and Happy Monday. Brand new week. Brand new attitude. The past is the past. The future is unlimited. Growing up we used to love to take pictures. Maybe not myself because I had a self confidence problem, but everywhere you went there was someone taking pictures. In grammar school we took pictures every week. In high school we took them every year. At church we took pictures. In the club we took pictures as a group to show we all went to a party. Most of the pictures we took were with a Polaroid camera which had great quality then. But if you wanted the best pictures you wanted the photographer to take your pictures. This was one of the coolest professions back then because all the ladies who wanted to be models or actresses had to go to the photographer to get that photo to take to the different agencies to show how they look. So in order to get the best quality the photographer had to go someplace where he could get the best results. It was his Dark Room. This is the na

Let The Rain Come Down

Good morning and Happy Friday. The summer is now beginning and the weather is now reaching its highest temperatures. It has reached a high point of 90's so far in the Chicagoland area and it appears to be nothing in sight to relieve us of these conditions that are almost drought like. As the summer gets ready to start in earnest next week we anticipate the warmest temps of the year after a winter that saw a little snow but the hawk, ( that's what we call the wind in the CHI ) was in full effect. But the sun has been out daily and we need a little moisture in our lives. We expect things to get wet in order for us to not only cool off but to wash away some things and bring a freshness of new things in our lives. The hotness of the weather coincides with the hotness in our lives. We need things to cool off a little bit but need some things to come down so we can enjoy the things in our lives that is promised to us as Christians. We are faithful and trusting in his Word. So as we
