A Witness For The Light (For Such a Time As This)

Good afternoon and Fabulous Friday. As we continue in the month of For Such a Time As This in November based on Esther 2:7-9, 3:2-3, 5 and 4:10-11, 13-14, lately I have been questioned as if I have been placed on trial for my beliefs. How can you say who you are without a doubt I was asked? "Well if you want to know I was addicted to cigarettes at the age of twelve, had my first beer around the same time, graduated to weed, tac, snorted cocaine, took pcp, took pills, drank rock gut alcohol and top shelf, been with many women including while I was married and some who were married as well, but was saved from all that by one man. So yes I can say without a doubt, I am A Witness For the Light".
The judges were stunned by answers but then asked for me to tell them more. "There were so many times that I drove home drunk and high out of my mind and not once did I run anyone over or get
pulled over for a DUI. There was the time when me and my best friend Mike Jones was playing with my Father's gun and it went of and neither one of us were hurt in any way. You can see why I am A Witness For The Light ( For Such a Time As This).
In the Word of God the greatest example of A Witness For The Light begins in John 1:6-7. In these verses we see where John was sent from God to bear witness of the Light that was to come. See I can
bear witness that not only has The Light come he has changed not only my life but others such as my Mother, who once had cancer in here body but has it no more. She is A Witness For The Light ( For Such a Time As This).
In going back to the Word of God for this teaching of A Witness For The Light I continue with John 1:8. In this verse it lets us know that John is not the true Light and it restates that he is to bear
witness to The Light. My Grandmother who is in her 90's was once thought to have lost her thought processes and would not be the same. But today she is back in her right mind. My Grandmother is A Witness For The Light (For Such a Time As This).
In coming to the last example of A Witness For The Light I go to the Word of God and John 1:9. In this verse it tells of how the true Light, came into this world and gave light to each and every person.
My Aunt Josephine, may she rest in peace, was a true example of bearing the witness of The Light to each and every one because of all The Light had done in her life and allowed her to do. A Witness For The Light (For Such a Time As This).
As I come to the end my testimony as A Witness For The Light I have only scratched ths surface of what The Light has meant to me and so many others. Multiple healings. Breakthroughs when they were not even expected. Providing a way out a troubling situation. Making tears turn into joy. My Dad was to have surgery but what was once seen was gone because my Father is A Witness For The Light. For those of you who may not know who The Light is, I have been talking about Jesus and on today I offer him to you, to be Your Light. You just confess with your mouth that Jesus is your Savior and it is done. The True Light will be in your life. I give God all the glory and honor for this teaching. I again ask you to go to Rhema Word 2.0 for a Preview of the Sunday School lessonfrom Derbe to Philippi by Brother Bremen Campbell.  And join me Monday for a teaching called I Will Not Bow Down that wil be coming from the second base scripture of the month, Esther 4:10-11, 13-14. Please continue to lift up the people of Paris in your prayers.

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
