Da Word... 183!

Good Evening!

Yup, I have missed the monday morning publishing TWO times in a row!  Alas, the plans of mice and men.... OOOO, can't wait for Spring!  Aight, on to... da Word!

checkit:

And now it is because of my hope in what God has promised our fathers that I am on trial today.
- Paul (Acts 26:6)

Mmmmhmmmm!  Paul again, that's right!  This time Paul is on trial before King Agrippa.  Paul is just bouncing around from trial to trial potnas.  Tough road!  This verse says a great deal... the path we tread when we put our hope in what Pops above has promised ain't no walk in the park!  There will be PLENTY of people, objects, and circumstances that will try to topple you.  That's just how it is potnas.  I mean... they gave Jesus da Christ himself a hard time!  What makes us think we'll get out of it?  Naw lo, this road is a tough one, but one so worth any and all toil. 

There's a couple things we can take away from this.  One, God made a promise!   And yo, Pops does NOT go back on his word, no way.  Two, we can have assured hope, then, in what God has promised.  In other words, it ain't an empty hope, or a hope that might come true... it is a 100%, risk free, certain, on the spot, in yo' FACE, bonafide deal potnas!  You can't lose ;-D  HOLLA!  And what is this promise?  Well, that the messiah came son!  And that he died and rose!  Furthermore, that we too will rise to join Pops when the time for illest state of living is upon us!  We'll straight be rockin' da Holy Ghost boat potnas!  It will be beyond your wildest dreams.  And guess what, all of it makes take away 3 all worth it:  there will be trials on the way to the promised land. 

Potnas, we all know that anything worth its salt does not come easy.  And so it is walking the path.  But we have assurance, and we got Pops in our corner... so ROCK ON!!!!

G-bless,
