Dear Mr. President my dream remains.

Dear President Obama, you have brought together our country in ways not seen since the days of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. For 45 years the citizens of America were reminded of this African-American Leader's dream of equality and hope pursuant of happiness for all men and women. Generations both young and old have come to realized that the way our government operates must change. You have promised change with the help of the American people behind you. You have promised to protect our way life with assurance that government as we know it today will change how it conducts business and remain for generations to come.

A dream of racial equality has come to America. The audacity of hope has blanketed every American house hold. Our people can work together for a better tomorrow and we can affect change when challenged. During this state of change, this moment of optimistic hopes and endeavors I am reminded that my dream remains. My dream remains, that government will no longer spend billions to bail out corporate America without first bailing out the American People. The home owners who struggle to maintain their way of life while their home values continue a downward fall. The homeless, hungry and hopeless citizens I see everyday does not have to be if my government would increase spending to help its people. My dream remains that politicians will no longer campaign on the hopes and struggles of American citizens only to conduct business as usual once elected into office. My dream remains on the promised to bring American soldiers home from Iraq to reunite their families and honor those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. My dream remains when gas prices continue to go up and the American people suffer while the government refuses to release oil reserves to lower cost. Yes Mr. President my dream remains when our educators are met with opposition and challenged in unrealistic ways to help our Children. My dream remains for the social security program to make through the next decade. My dream remains.

PRESIDENT OBAMA

Now he is President Obama, officially sworn in on the steps of Capital today. Tomorrow the weight of the world rest solely on his shoulders. How will he react? What steps will he take the first 120 days in office? Will President Obama remain true to his campaign? Only time will tell if Americans have made the right decision electing President Obama. Nevertheless, America has broken the color barrier and ushered in a new sense of well being to our upcoming generation. Yes we can move mountains when we believe. Acting on faith and not the circumstances that confronts us. Yes we can.

Powerless Parenting

During this time and age, more now than ever, we have to regain the power that exists in effective parenting. With the recent university shootings America has had the opportunity to examine other public school shootings and to do what is necessary. What does it take to win back control of an out of control educational system? My guess is reaffirming the need for active parenting. Now administrators are re-thinking the open campus concept as they think of additional measures to keep students safe. It has been a systematic approach to stripping parents and educators of their power to guide and protect our students, our children. We can no longer discipline our children in public for fear of prosecution. Teachers can no longer discipline students in class rooms for fear of the same recourse. We can no longer discipline our children in comforts of our own homes. The powerless parents are more evident today as they are bounded by laws that restrict them of their God given duty. Yet, the focus of discussion groups always yields the burning question during the aftermath of a tragic situation “Where were the parents?” They are at home knowing what it takes to control their own, but feeling powerless to do anything about it. Welcome to the world of powerless parenting. It only exists if we allow it.

Wisdom the principal thing

Proverbs 4;vs7 wisdom is the principal thing therefore get wisdom; and with all thy getting get understanding. Some have wisdom, but no understanding of it's use. This is because they lack the application of knowledge. Apply what we have received from Jesus, manifest His light in your life today.

What to Shew

Ps 9vs1;I will praise thee o lord with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvelous works. Let's shew forth over coffee, shew forth as we drive, shew because HE died, shew because we are alive in Jesus! So let us shew the love of God to all HIS children.

Problematic Society

It has occurred to me, as in times past; with the shooting in Northern Illinois that America as beautiful as she is has so many hidden problems. We are quick to debate or join the fight to help others who are oppressed and half step the results. Play the cards that are in our favor and forget those suffering both here and afar. Our children suffer poor education though living the so call American dream. The land of the free, poor, oppressed and greedy could be additional terms to describe us. Gun control is a heated argued debate. No one can predict the actions of others. We can only learn and attempt to put into place measures that protect our way of life. We endeavor to make safe a gruel society that only appears perfect on the surface. Who are we? We are the United States of America the land of the free, just and problematic society.
