All of us had more reason to sing than he, but he was the one singing!
Their thoughts were occupied, their agendas were full and he was… well, he was a blind beggar.
His song was all that he had. Though sightless, penniless hobo, he still found a song and sang it courageously. (I wondered which room in his heart that song came from.)
The blind man could be the most peaceful fellow on the streets!
Faith is the bird that sings while it is still dark.
And though I was the one with eyes, it was he who gave me a new vision.

But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. Remember Lot’s wife.

“Crabs in a barrel is a story I’ve heard motivational speaker Craig Valentine tell! He said you could put crabs and a big barrel and leave the lid off and still none of them would get out. Just to soon as one crab started getting near the top of crab below would reach up and pull him back down. Craig compared it to us humans. If we are slightly below another and they begin to rise we have a tendency to try to pull them back now. If we say that we are going to write a book they say, “don’t you know that you probably won’t be successful?” They ask if we know how many people have written books that didn’t sell even one hundred copies? They seemingly want to dash some water on your fire. They ask the question “what do you want to do that for.””

12/31–Start Your Day Off Right Series—New Years Eve
Quote:
12/31– Nothing can dim the light shines from within
Story:
12/31–In the washroom of his London club, British newspaper publisher and politician William Beverbrook happened to meet Edward Heath, then a young member of Parliament, about whom Beverbrook had printed an insulting editorial a few days earlier. “My dear chap,” said the publisher, embarrassed by the encounter. “I’ve been thinking it over, and I was wrong. Here and now, I wish to apologize.” “Very well,” grunted Heath. “But the next time, I wish you’d insult me in the washroom and apologize in your newspaper.”
Scripture:
Matthew 6:14-15
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Is 58:6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
Perspective–seasoned by experience, you begin to understand what not to worry about. So that you can put your efforts into that which is productive and not in that which will energize your enemies by focusing on them and what they are trying to do.
If you start speaking to them you give life to them and make them bigger by focusing on them. You need to ignore what they are doing, and keep on doing what you are called to do. Because whatever you put your attention on you give life to. You make something or somebody important the moment you give it or them attention.
Whatever you give attention to you make important. If you want to kill something, ignore it. A lot of time Jesus answered them not a word. Let the silence settle.
