“Black Lives Matter”

BLACK LIVES MATTER – Yes they do
BLACK LIVES MATTER …. But looking at this diverse good of folks, it begs the question,
which lives matter more … and which lives matter less.
When we come to understand ,that man apart from God, has been inhumane to man since Cain
murdered Able, we can then begin to comprehend, that there is a spiritual enemy who has
worked full time through the annals of time – to divide and conquer man - setting man at odds to
one another - that we short circuit life between one another - through shooting in anger, and
hating on one another to the point of locking them up, and throwing away the key so as to crush
one’s purpose, calling and destiny – and there are many, many self-inflicted wounds …. Having
cut off the fulfilling of one’s talents – that could have been shared - with all people of every
nation, race, color, and tongue –
Do BLACK LIVES MATTER? … ABSOLUTELY … yet I would be hard pressed to find an
ASIAN who did not believe clear down to the marrow of his and her bones that ASIAN LIVES
MATTER, TOO. Because, we are all in the same boat riding the sea of life …
History is replete with mayhem, chaos, race wars, race baiting, half-truth so being a whole lie.
There is nothing new under the sun. It’s just more graphic and readily able to be known, and
shown across the globe. We call it “instant information”. And this taking of life just or unjust,
will have one turn on an emotional "attack-high" … because you took one of mine.
BLACK LIVES MATTER, Absolutely so … but if a white or brown person shouted “Brown
Lives Matter! White Live Matter! They too would all be right - and many would be offended –
divided by pigmentation, and man’s inhumanity to man.
Truth be told, the Indians in the plains were defeated by Buffalo Soldiers who were Black. The
Whites over the Asians building the railroads west, the slave-master over the slave, and the
north-siders over the east-siders, and the west-siders over the south-siders … Black Lives Matter,
Absolutely…
But can you distinguish the color - of a mother tear? Can you distinguish the race of a father
having lost his son or even daughter in the mayhem of player hating … do we hear the inner
groaning and gripping pain of the heart of a weeping father whose child (color him/her red,
yellow, black or brown) who is, no more?
Man has lost his God compass.
See, you can say as you will, but it’s not just Black, White, Yellow or Brown, it’s a matter of
one’s heart being warm or cold toward another … the heart, or rather lack of heart, that has us to
the point of riling against government and authority. And so the question and the accusation is
cast…
Are you not Black enough for Black Lives Too Matter? Are you not Brown enough for Brown
Lives to Matter– matter – matter, first.
We are all of one blood formed of the dust of the earth created in the image and likeness of God
Because God's heart intent, calling, and purpose, is not for us to be tripping over "who-donewhat-to-who-and when."
He valued us of every Nation and Tongue; So God sent his only begotten Son to ransom us back
from the region and shadow of death of the black on black killing – and the brown on brown
killing … and the White on Black killing and the killing, killing of man's inhumanity to man ...
and the I shot my girlfriend who left me because I couldn’t control my anger … I shot her dead
…and now my life doesn’t matter to nobody, ….. but no body.
Now I do know that in these types of setting, many would prefer we leave what is termed our
“religion at the door,” but what I share here is absolutely relevant. It is beyond religion. And it is
something we should all keep in the forefront of our mind as we interact and interrelate across
culture and social status and nationality and race and tongue … and it found in our B.I.B.L.E.
and it’s in the 17 chapter of the Book of the Acts of the Spirit of God through men.
Acts chapter 17
God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven
and earth dwelleth not in temples made with hands either is worshipped with
men's hands as though he needed anything, seeing(God) giveth to ALL life, and
breath, and all things, and has made (and here’s where I’m going with this) ….
And has made of "One Blood, All Nations of Men For To Dwell on All The Face
of The Earth.
BLACK LIVES MATTER, ABSOLUTELY …. BROWN LIVES MATTER,ABSOLUTELY
… YELLOW LIVES MATTER, ABSOLUTELY … WHITE LIVES MATTER,
ABSOLUTELY …BECAUSE … Mankind Matters.
And we must have a shift in our thinking, and an awaking in our heart – or nothing will change
… and we’ll still remain in our little social, cultural corners of life… and there is really for real,
nothing wrong with that … but let’s have a heart shift .. a soul shift … and at the least begin
from the stand point that ALL LIVES MATTER, Inclusive of my very own people who will
love its own, and as a way of life -always make room to … love you too.
So, yea … you bet-ya’ BLACK LIVES MATTER … and you, and you, and you, and you and
you …. matter to me too.
