ADVENT OF ACTION TIME AND CHANGE
-Clear; present; and a different Approach...
In the not-to-distance pass, the ‘baby boomers’ were the fastest growing and sustaining population. However, in the here and now, that is no longer prevalent. Times have changed and new action and attention are focused on ‘The millennia’s’. They are now the largest growing population. And their action toward behavioral patterns of ways and means of doing things are changing the landscape. As were evident in the Obama race for the POTUS and summarily impacted the 2018 Mid-term elections across America. This has ushered-in and triggered a different approach and focus. One that is viewed as a far cry from what use to be touted as politically correct. The attitudes are changing toward social norms, standards, customs, traditions, and cultural behaviors-regard new standards of moral and esthetical appropriate on the daily sojourn of life. It seems the older traditional ways and means are being severely challenged and/or changed.
It’s the sign of the time we find ourselves. And when such an aberration and/or condition exists; most of the time it takes a catastrophic happening of a moment-in-time for the massive population to pause and take steps for some different action. Which usually allows for a civil opportunity of unity, and harmony-working together to achieve positive results for the common good of all humanity.
Due to these differences-we are hearing a ‘clarion call’-“Let’s seize the moment and make a move for change; ‘cause and effect”.
Of course, all involved can disparage the message or the messenger, dissect the apparatus, and disagree with the hopeful ones. However, when we seize the moment, and not dismiss the time for such an opportunity it shall be both prudent and wise. It becomes a time for all to reflect on the moment, to be in the moment; to reach out and help another. Such action has the propensity to create great relational legacies across cultural diversity lines of ethnicity.
I hasten to add, the aforementioned requires ‘patience’. And as those of us who possess a smattering of ‘patience’- such can translate to “Love”-Agape Love, which is God’s, Inclusive Love. In the Good Book {Bible}, it reveals that we as a people who care, should exhibit some evidence of Faith, Hope, and Love. It goes on to say, and the greatest of these is “Love”. To have the love for all humanity is an expression that manifests into ‘Action’. When we express such a sensitive and passionate expression toward humanity. It a must that it is done in all sincerity.
An idol word of expressions in the ‘Talking Genre’ comes with a level of ease, but the ‘Action’ that follows the utterances is a bit more difficult. It shall be most important to let your word be your bond. In a word, do what you say, and say what is that you do; genuinely, and let your action speak louder than your words. Such action is a manifestation that becomes “The Fruits of the Spirit’. It summarily seals the deal and lends itself to enhance and augment your integral creditability. Its time to “Go Forth!” in the mantra of Action, Time and Change. Know this: #BECOMEAWARE# #COMEALIVE# #BEWOKE# #STAYWOKE#

LEADER-SHIP; To embrace flexibility, sensitivity, humility and The Joy!
Not too long ago, I enjoyed the privilege of completion a Post-Graduate Course on "Rare Leader". We as students focus, surmised, and re-learned while engaging in interactive discussions, that healthy teams begin with healthy leaders.
The aforementioned traits and attributes in the title of this blog is key to the development of 'emotional intelligence', which lends itself to the heart of the quality of dynamic emotional maturity. And I hasten to add, it is also fundamental ingredients of the basis for benefits of it's 'Core Values.
As one's strives to rise to the level of a Rare Leader it prepares and equips you to:
~Cultivate emotional maturity in self first, then to share, mentor and develop others
~Promote a strong group identity
~Keep relationships bigger than any problems
~And then to develop the "Four Habits" of R.A.R.E leaders
HERE ARE THE FOUR HABITS:
The four habits prepare one to be exceptional and are built around the elements of identity and belonging. The power of these two sets the paradigm for the basis and core values of a Rare Leader. They are as follows:
R-Remain relational {belonging}
A-Act like yourself {identity}
R-Return to joy {being glad to be together]
E-Endure hardships well {use differences, difficulties to bring all closer together}
Just Know: That both belonging and identity are key components and lends itself to the evolution of 'Transformation.' It does not hurt one at this juncture to reflect on the biblical revelation of -the fruits of the spirits, i.e. love, joy, peace, long-suffering and temperament, etc.
In conclusion, a word in regards to, clear understanding and comprehending the essence of the message and the real meaning of one's speech,sermon, proclamation and/or utterances, especially when articulating a home-going eulogy. One need not look any further than the biblical passage of HABAKKUK 2:2, "The Lord said, write the vision; and make it plain, upon tables, that he may run that read it." Modern-day exegesis meaning: 'write the words large and present them on a Billboard, make them large and clear, share and explain them well. Therefore, anyone can hear it, read it, with no misunderstanding, and can run to explain and to tell others without any confusion.

A CONSTANT FOCUS AWARENESS OF;
It has been my experiential encounter; in order to yield exponential spiritual growth; that translates to an enormity of dividends, requires being committed, dedicated and steadfast on the journey of one's daily spiritual walk of life.
I adhere to the principles within this thoughts of consciousness: Take the time to seize the moment; be in the moment; while reaching-out to touch & agree, to reach consensus and/or even to disagree with others, with special consideration given for nurture and care, especially among our youth and young adults. In so doing; take the time to share and impart positive wisdom of useful Intel that has pristine life application qualities.
I would further contend-it would be good to begin with edification, first,then move to encouragement and recognition of positive learn ed traits and attributes; already in one's possession. Being mindful that the Core Value of Rare leaders is to always come along side another to pour into them useful, insightful wisdom and knowledge; in the Genre of ;and with the proclivities mirrored in Mentor-ship Traits and Attributes.
A word regards shadowing: When a men tee or an intern is allowed the privilege of observation through shadowing it speaks volumes, on a constant basis. Why? Because when you as a Rare Leader extend such an opportunity through guidance, coaching, counseling, it serves as powerful catalyst to both enhance and augment the desired outcome of one reaching their Full Potential in Life. A feat that is obtained while being aware and embracing one's 'purpose in life-as it was both pre-ordained and meant for them to be by the creator. GO FORTH #MUCHBLESSINGSABOUND#

UPLIFT 'N" LIFT-UP WORDS....
Be resolve to aspire B 4 U retire;
Strive to do your best to inspire others...
Instead of the focus on a lighter journey...?
Reach-Out, embrace the quest to have broader shoulders
Nor to be so strident and bent for an easy journey...
Instead have a desire for more stamina and stronger feet for the quest of the journey
While on the journey-do not up-hold or look for a weaker enemy...
Better Yet- be steadfast for a more fit, equipped and stronger self...
Therein lay the essence of servant-hood with the embodiment of Rare Leadership traits and attributes.

Prayer for Request and Supplication-W/Expectancy
1
Chronicles 4:9-10, Jabez Request and supplications to God
Compiled/Edited
By: Steve Braxton, National Clergy Fellowship Outreach...
THE
PRAYER OF JABEZ, his name means: distress, pain, etc
Jabez
was different than the rest of his family. His mother named him due to the
difficulty she experienced during his birth. Knowing his name brought distress
to his mother; he wondered “Is there more to life than this”?
Therefore,
he prayed to God this prayer
“Oh
that U would bless me, and bless me indeed {means: bless me a lot-many, many
times}
And
enlarge my territory; that your hand would be with me; and that you would keep
me from all evil”
Exegete:
~Wonderfully
bless me
~Help
me with my work
~Please
be with me in all that I do
~Keep
me from all evil and disaster {God granted him his request
Summary:
Oh that u would
bless me, indeed
“Prepare me, Equip
me; and Empower me
Nothing but God’s
fullest blessings for bestowal upon U
But we must ask for
them or they will be put on the “un-claimed shelf”-waiting for U to ask
Be in Expectancy Mode:
Look FWD with the Belief, have the confidence and expectation that God will
bring it to pass
Reflection: Solomon
name meant “Peace” He was the first King of Israel to reign without going to
war. As he prayed to God 4 Wisdom, Knowledge and all other oppty became
available to him {He had the wisdom and most of The Understanding &
recognition of God’s Blessings and he was obedient..
OH That U would enlarge
My Territory: His desire was not about material things but rather:
~Influence-More
Responsibility, More Opportunity to make a mark for God
~Practice
his presence; Keep God ‘front-of-mind-consciousness’
~To
do the work, by coming along side others to mentor, advice, counsel and coach-and
those efforts would serve to glorify God
Prayer
sounds something like this:
Oh
Great, Good, and Wise God!, I come asking that you would expand my opportunities;
in that, it may Impact others in
enormous ways; in the work-as I touch & agree, and that it would make a
difference in much more lives-all to
your Glory! Oh Lord help me, and let me do more for you, and the kingdom, this
is my prayer, IN JESUS NAME, Amen

MY Belief and Relationship With God-My Source of Higher Authority
I believe in God- cause I count Him, as My Ultimate Source.
I have Faith in God as my Source of Higher Authority, Because "God Is Love". When I was a child My parents and grandparents taught and embedded in me that I belong to God, Why?, cause during those days of Jim Crow laws, in the 1960's ,which consisted of separation of the races, segregation, racism, prejudices, conflicts, challenges, encountered, that {I, & siblings} had to grapple with the manacles of the chains of severe and harsh discrimination. We had no where to turn but to go within and pray, meditate, and commune with God. This brought about inside "Joy" Peace, Deep Inner Peace, Contentment-as well as, Spiritual Balancing and Centering as the focus was on The Ultimate Power, of Grace and Mercy-The source for the Nature and Character, thus the connection to God.
Which served to sustain and allow the opportunity to overcome those inhumane CHALLENGES, CONFLICTS & OBSTACLES.
I was consistently told and reminded about the advent of the 'Ant-Christ'-{False Prophets}the one who would come to be dead set on; to deceive, steal one's joy, and bring about distractions, drama, etc, that would take away one's consciousness from-keeping God in"Front-of-Mind-Consciousness. I, and my siblings; { 10 brothers 7 sisters}were taught to beware of such folks.
We were told that we would be sure to Identify the good one's within the marvelous light vs the one's from the darker side {secular world}.We were alerted to be on the look out {as we we were told} for those who practice the 'fruits of the spirit' i.e love, Joy, Peace, Happiness, etc. These would be the one's with the attributes which consisted of the character and nature of God.
My siblings and I had come to posses the imprint of God's Spirit within us and that would be the key for us to identify the enemy from the darker side, i.e drugs, crime ,violence, gang activity. The spirit of God provided that powerful hedge of protection to resist the those enemies of the secular world who would were destined to reek havoc in one's daily spiritual walk of life.
I, and my siblings were constantly told: "We must love each other. Because love came from God, WHY? God is Love. The Epitome of Agape Love- Is God's Inclusive. And As we learn to Love one another-it showed that we had been given, 'New life' to be equipped, empowered and readied to sacrifice and forgive others and to be forgiven...
The two commandments that I adhere to; as it is given to me; Love the atmosphere that is created for me by the source of Higher Authority, and to always Love each other because the spirit has been given to dwell within me for such attributes and traits of the humanity-of-genuine-efforts.
LOVE ABOUND TO ALL
By all means practice the 'Fruits of The Spirit" Love, Joy, Peace and Happiness....
Blessings
LUV U ALL
