The difference of one


An Army of One
I am one man and still I fight. I fight to educate myself and my children despite financial barriers. It is my personal testimonial that education can and will save lives. Our suffering can be relieved through learning, our struggles made easier and our lives enriched. Knowledge will help us to emerge from these desperate times when we have famine while food is grown in abundance. Prey for a day when we have matured beyond the point of denying health care, because of financial restrictions. Our children are denied water and proper medical care because there countries lack the natural resources to gain the attention of large contributors. It is up to us the people who work to maintain the basic structure of our society. We claim religious ties and yet we allow our fellow man to starve while our own pantry stay’s full. You must ask yourself if you can afford to eat a little less so that someone hungry might eat a little more. It is not enough to give if you do not give to those in need. We must reach out into the street and into the homes of our fellow man and make it our new religion of compassion. We must worship our future and pay tithes amongst each other. If you have more you should do more. We must go out into the communities and help each family. You must make your neighbors hurdles your own, and overcome them together. It is my dream that we can create a better standard of living for our generations to follow. We can do this by encouraging one another to reach beyond our preconceived potentials. Our journey can be limitless or it can end tomorrow. We can continue to destroy and tear down each other, or we can choose to rebuild and lift up. We must take god out of the Church and place him in the hearts of men so that we might grow a better understanding than our fathers.  If you must have the Church then carry it on your back’s and take it with you into the world and use it to help your fellow man. Use the Church as a shelter for lost souls.  Before you can affect true growth you must learn to reach your hands into the soil. Plant the seed and watch it grow.
