Da Word... 146!

Hey hey!

Good evenin' people!  How ya livin'!  I hope well, tru! TRU!  Apparently it's rainin' like CRAZY!  Fortunately, I missed the torrential downpour each time I've ventured into the open air.  Praise POPS!  Hah hah!  Aight aight, on tooooo.... da Word!

checkit:

1 ...Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.  2 There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.  3 What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs.
- J (Luke 12:1-3)


Oh snap!  It's my man J... da Christ!  In these few verses right here, J was droppin' some knowledge, some warnings if you will, to his potnas da disciples.  He was warnin' them to be on guard!  To avoid the pit that is hypocrisy kid.  And that is so on point.  But why?  Why should a brutha or sista avoid hypocrisy (you know, despite the obvious thing... that it's just plain wrong son!).  Well, J basically spits it like this, "Listen dawgs, all that you do, even in the so-called 'secret', will be made known!  It will be spat from ROOFTOPS kid! You know much that would bite?  yoooooo... you want none o' that, trust me."

See, the things that tend to happen in secret, in the dark, in places where there is no light, or in hushed tones tend to bear on unwholesome... u know, straight wrong or even eeeevil!  Cuz if it wasn't, why would we be tryin' ta hide it?  And that is, to hide it in such a way that certain people or all people will never ever find out... at least that is the hope.  You know how much stress that will cause?  psshhhhh, forget that stuff potnas, I'd rather be livin' la vida free.  There is no way a deep, dark secret will remain secret.  It's waaaaaaaaaaay too much work to keep it so, and you're bound to slip up somehow... someway.  And when that happens, a leak occurs... before you know it, the floodgates burst open, and there ya lay, bare and shamed. 

So why even create the opportunity for that to happen?  There is nothing to gain from it, but all to lose.  Naw naw brethren and sistren, let's heed what my man J has got ta say!  Let's not do things in the dark. No no no NO, let's always do things in the light!  If we have no secrets, we have no chains to bear us down, keep us on lock, and make life all the harder.  If we have no secrets, we can fly like straight eagles kid.  We can soar for there will be no burdensome weight holdin' us down.  Let our actions and our thoughts live in the light, thereby granting us the freedom to enjoy and partake in life to the fullest.  Don't waste time hiiiiidin'!  Come on now!  For life awaits you to grasp a hold of it!  To cherish it!  Time is waaay too precious, and life waaay too magnificent to dwindle the both away in the darkness.

Aight PEEPS!  I gotta bounce.  PeACE!

G-bless,
