Another sign of how soon Moshiach is coming
A friend of mine recently told me that the world leader whom Moshiach will deal with – who will welcome Moshiach – will be a black man.
The reason for this is, that they are from the only nations that never oppressed the Jews.
Considering the polls, Moshiach is coming before NOVEMBER!
All success is specific
I remember that feeling of euphoria from success
We think “o.k. got that in the bag, now lets go off to conquer the next goal”
Trouble is that success is specific.
God wanted me to be successful in a. and not in b., so if you focus on a. you can grow it, but if you lose sight of your core mission and begin trying to focus on b. as many men do, well then you will lose a. and b.!
Imagine you are in one of those funky space chairs that you can drive through space
Trouble is that you are in it for life – floating infinitely – now ask yourself “what are the feelings I wish to have on this infinite journey in time?” BECAUSE THIS IS THE REALITY minus the space chair of course
The only way to be happy that you are happy is to always say thank you to God, for by saying thank you, you are reminding your brain that you are happy
By being happy that you are happy you will always be happy, but if you are not happy that you are happy than you can never be happy, for you will always want more
The only way forward is through submission to God and gratitude for your blessings, otherwise we are actually going backwards; for the more we get, the more we want, and the more we want, the less we have, as well as getting resentful over our lack and resentment breeds hatred and hatred is the cause of all evil
Understanding Darkness
Today I asked a black worker from Zimbabwe how things are there – as she recently came from there – bad, she replied.
People don’t have jobs – she sends from her meager salary, money to her family there. etc.
Understanding Darkness
As I contemplating about Robert Mugabe, a man she says she hates, a man responsible for eradicating the bread basket of Africa – his country – turning it into the highest mortality rate in the world, basically reducing his country back to the middle ages, lacking all supplies i.e. food, water, electricity etc. etc. it occurred to me that he thinks he is right.
And hence it made me realize that humanity must wake to see that people educated in the jungle, believe in the law of the jungle.
In other words:
Yesterday I was speaking to a very bright white South African Jew, how I believe South Africa is about a hundred years behind the consciousness of human rights that pervade the mindset of the western world.
He vehemently disagreed – why would you say South Africa? all of Africa! all of the Arab states! Iran! and others!
Well he made a point that most Americans and people brought up under democracy are blinded by.
It is not the color of your skin that makes you, rather it is the education – and not the education, rather the family, the role models, the society you are brought up into, that does.
For there to be a genuine response to evil one must understand that evil people are no different then the cultures they were brought up into.
This is not to condemn the culture, for the basic of liberty were only brought to western civilization in the past hundred years.
To understand the enemy, one must understand that the enforcement of liberty is a sacred duty.
