BE OF SERVICE TO OTHERS

I'd like to share a testimony. Not for recognition or rewards, but for you to see what kind of heart I have and to see how tithes can be paid outside of a spiritual institution: 

At approximately 3:30am, as I was walking into the Waffle House with my cousin and her friend in Columbus, Georgia, an older Caucasian guy, whom from my eyes appeared to be in need of food was sitting on the curb outside the Waffle House. As my cousin and her friend proceeded into the restaurant, I approached the gentleman and asked, "Are You Hungry? Do You Want Some Food?" and he replied, "sure." I ordered him his food of choice and blessed him with an early breakfast. 

The creator places people and situations before you to see how you would react to them. To see if you are all talk or really about your word. The spirit of the creator operates within those of need as well and how you treat his creations is how he chooses to treat you. 

Though I'm far from religious, but deeply spiritual, I pay my tithes by being of service to his creations. You must know that tithes don't have to be paid in a collection plate, but just by doing good deeds for others. 

Make it your duty to add value to those you come in contact with continuously and unconditionally.

Many of us have applied to many job positions using our High School Diploma and GED. We have found out that the job market was very difficult to get in with just a High School Diploma and GED.

So we ask our parents, teachers, employers and various other individuals, what we have to do in order to secure the interested positions in the future? They tell us to further our education, “Go to college and get a degree”. We then say, “we can’t afford college, we don’t have any money”. Then they say, “Financial Aid, you can take out loans to cover your cost and you can pay them back after you graduate college.”   Now we believe a college degree is the way to securing a job position and a way to get out of poverty. “If I graduate from college, I can get the job I want and live comfortably… “If I gradua...

CAMILIA TERRY

          After doing my research on Camilia Terry, I came up with an opinion of my own. First thing, for those of you who say you would have beaten her behind and what not, you would have been in jail as well. I understand you all have hurt inside, but murder is the same sin as beating her up, lying and stealing. Negativity gets you nowhere in life. Do your research before judging someone. I’m sure many of you with these negative feedback's are young minded, uneducated, and have no connection with Jesus Christ.           Yes, it’s wrong to take someone else’s life, but picture yourself growing up in a foster home and the reason you were there in the first place is because your parents were dysfunctional and you were physically, mentally, sexually and emotional abused. Picture yourself as a single14year old mother in foster care. You think you found love and you didn’t because you don...
