I Have A Dream...




“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

I have a dream today!

I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "interposition" and "nullification" -- one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

I have a dream today!

I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.”
Martin Luther King Jr.

The Creator Never Stops Amazing Me

 
The Creator Never Stops Amazing Me
I am not referring to Dan Lester,  the artist.The artist is only the instrument placed here to translate messages. The gifts that God pours into each of us are beautiful when we are in tuned with His messages. No matter what technological advances come they all come from God.

God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.John 1:13NLT

Our advancements can be used to express something of worth or something of little value.

Dr. Rick Higgins & Lessons In Leadership

 
Dr. Rick Higgins
 
Professor of Discipleship, Columbia International University
 
Followers of Christianity however must acknowledge the teachings of Jesus,
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. (John 14:6)
You may think this verse is exclusive and you are correct; however, Jesus does not give us the option to accept Him as a good teacher but not as the Messiah. Syncretism may seem appealing so one can pay homage to all religions but Jesus calls us to follow Him. Are you following a way other than Jesus? Solomon wisely observes, “There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death”. (Proverbs 14:12, 16:25).

Don't Give Up



Is it about that time already? I guess it is. Three weeks passes quickly. That is about the time it takes for a new year’s resolution to grow cold. And, the gym is the place that it hits the hardest. This is just a friendly reminder to hang-in-there. You may have taken on too much at once, started out too fast or a little of both but remember that the results you are looking for aren't too far off. Your body will appreciate it more that you know. We are creatures that perform better when we are in a fit state. Man y sicknesses enjoy hanging around when they have plenty of fat too much on or hide in. Speed up the flow of your blood’s circulation for at least thirty minutes a day and you will see and feel a difference.
You can do it.
Don’t allow you mind to fool you this year.
It is not too hard. Just do it.

The Wise Man


Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

I'm Too Slow To Think This One Up

An artist who can only draw in his sleep is hoping to raise £1million by selling his entire collection of work. Lee Hadwin, 37, places pads of paper around his London flat for the bizarre talent which he picked up at the age of four. He has drawn numerous portraits of screen siren Marilyn Monroe but most of his artwork is of circle-inspired abstract pieces.
 
(Circle-Inspired master pieces, great name...LOL)

Who's at Fault?

 
There is a lot said about Kate Middleton (Duchess of Cambridge), the artist Paul Emsley and the result of his art. Some of the new critics are taking it to the extreme with their joking. Even though I find them amusing I must as one question. Who commissioned the artist? Well I guess I have one other question, did anyone involved ever take a look at his portfolio. The style of the artist does not change because of the subject. Please take a look at his past portraits before you consider the blame if there is to be any blame. Compared to the other portraits that Paul created this is right inline of his style. I’m not saying I like it but he does have the right to create what he sees as an artist.
