Who for and at what Cost?
The British royal family mark Commonwealth Day for the diversity of the nation and the future, but the many issues of slavery and exploitation that was involved in building that former Empire are of course not addressed since that would make them convicted of their guilt to pay some compensation!
It is a tough area for many European countries that were involved in slavery and the money that was made to build their nations on the backs of black people who still are not considered fully equal in the nations of France, Spain, Britain, The Netherlands, Portugal and Belgium today!
We even see out blown racism in the public domain and some members of the British Royal family towards Megan and their driving away into public life by a hostile racist media!
We can really only account to God for our own failings as individuals, but like Nazi-Germany people families need to be held accountable for their part in past atrocities?

A mothers Love?
Appreciation!
The end of this month sees another celebration of our mothers, despite the traditions and requirements of this day? We tend to forget that our mothers mostly tried to do and do continue to do the best for us?
But it us who have to return that love in our responsibility and actions is helping our parents if we can? Cleaning, caring, shopping, taking them out and returning that love which will build our relationships!
Jesus too had a mother who loved Him, she may have not full understood Him, until after the events cared? But she stayed the road with the believers who followed Him well into the establishment of the early Church!
Genesis 2:24, 3:20, Matthew/Levi 1:18, 2:11, Mark 7:7-11, Acts 1:14, Ephesians 6:2.

Our Choices? One.
Determine!
Many people find it easier to blame the environment for failed choices, over that of taking responsibility?
It is always easy to blame another factor and we see this first in the garden of Eden, when Adam blamed Eve! But Adam knew as well as eve that they were not to eat from the tree of knowledge, so they both shared in this disobedience to God which brought in the second sin of shame!
What is happening in our lands, cities and streets are well within our influence and this is proved by the reaction of people to build up mistrust that then fuels the laws of the ghetto or anarchy!
Genesis 2:25, Psalm 119:116, Proverbs 8:10, Mark 8:38, Acts 15:7, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, Titus 2:8.

Social Media! Part-Three.
Cultural Music Attack?
Many are now starting to question the viability of Rap and Driller music, because with the use of social media transfer it is believed to be encouraging the ongoing gang violence?
It was interesting to note how quick the rappers came up to defend their music, which the most profitable at this time in digital sales! But nothing was considered by them in relation to changing some of their language that seems to encourage violence and murder?
The problem that lays with many similar communities is their lack of taking responsibility and this is not limited to Black culture, because much of white society is not much better if not worse in other ways!
Psalm 37:1, Matthew 12:36, Romans 4:8.

Social Media! Part-Two.
The killings go On?
Guns and knife murders are continuing despite appeals and calls for them to end both in the United States and England, U.K!
Gang culture powered by wrap and viewed on Social media, such as You Tube is perhaps the cause of much prowess and insult that brings on the challenge to our do in respect!
We who have been there Know what it is like and how easier it is getting to be worse than ever before? The communities have a big Responsibility to take charge of the matter, working with local councillors and politicians in their contact with the police!
But social media also needs to clean up its act in relation to knowing and filtering what is going up as they have with the Islamic State?
Meanwhile the governments have to spend more money on young people, while the Church in the community preaches the cross and the need of confession and repentance of failures!
Matthew 10:38, Mark 8:34, Luke 5:32, 15:7, 1 Corinthians 1:17-18, 2 Corinthians 7:10, Ephesians 2:16. Colossians 2:14-15, Hebrews 12:2.

'Thirsty.' Part-One.
Ho! ev'ry one...
that is weary and sad:
These are the opening lines to an old Redemptional song and they are fitting for this message today.
Have you ever been thirsty and hungry and have been supplied with provision from an unsuspected source?
The bible is a book that tells us about ordinary people rich and poor struggling through life and how God helps them.
Jesus warned 'Good living people to take responsibility for the poor, weak, those in prison, sick and ill. When He said to them, For I was hungry and you did not give me.'
The words of that first verse in the Sankey/Redemptional end with, 'Come to the fountain, there's a fulness in Jesus, All that you're longing for, come and be glad.
Judges 4:19, Psalm 107:5, 33, Proverbs 25:21, 25, Matthew 25:35, 42.

Fatherhood. Part-One.
Gods Way.
You the daddy, or you like to make but then take no responsibility?
God is straight, He wants us to be responsible fathers.
It is the right thing to get married and have a family.
God does not like two men or two woman to get married and have a family, because that is not His order of Nature.
Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:5-6, Mark 10:8.

I Fear No Evil. Part-One.
As I Walk Through....
What make you fear, the dark, your members, your enemies, the Police?
We are all afraid of something from things that go bump in the night to facing up to our responsibilities and last of all the reality that we will all have to die some day.
But 'I will walk through the valley of the shadows and I will not fear! That is not for you, who do not believe.
But it is for you who do believe, that Jesus died in your place taking your failure on his body on the tree, stake, Cross and that He has arisen from the grave. Psalm 23:4.
I will not fear death, as I walk through the valley of Shadows.'
