Impressive singing and dancing got my attention

Write about your first crush.

My own copyright drawing of the late Michael Jackson.

I can’t really say I had a “crush ” on anyone in particular. Only because most of the boys I knew when I was a child seemed …mean. Mean because they were hitting girls and running away from the girl.

I asked my Mother. “Why do boys like to hit girls and then run?”

She said, “Because they like her.” Calmly as she was washing dishes.

In my mind, at the time, I thought that was mean to hit someone you liked. Mixed message if you had asked me!

But you see that I picked Michael Jackson. I had thought he was talented, and I was impressed. Never saw him hit a girl or woman. Plus, not bad looking.

So Michael Jackson is or was as close to anyone I can think of right now worth mentioning. He is one who was popular for 3 generations and beyond.

What I understand, Michael Jackson, was a jehovah witness. So when i learned that it removed any “Crush” feelings I may have had. I am not a jehovah witness. Our understanding of who JESUS is totally different. I know that JESUS is a Devine being from FATHER GOD.

Chapter 23

1(A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Putting GOD first 🙏🏾 in all we do keeps us from being bad! 😄😄😄

Jesus is my only favorite who walked the earth as a man.

Who is your favorite historical figure?

JESUS was no wimp. He obeyed GOD. He showed mankind the example of how us mankind should live here on this earth. To live as how GOD would have us to live.

JESUS was perfect, clean without sin, and the son of the most high one and only true living GOD. JESUS is Devine and was from heaven

HE came from heaven to save our souls, not to condemn anyone. To show us peace and a way to heaven to be with our beloved FATHER GOD.

It must have been awful to see what we mankind was doing to each other. The smell, what was seen, what was heard as compared to heaven.

HE was strong and steadfast in faith. Trusted GOD the FATHER. Prayed and obeyed the instruction of GOD.

And then, knowing that the people you come to save in love ❤️ hated you. Then seek to kill you for your efforts.

Let us remember what JESUS has done for all mankind. What will you do for HIM?

My beloved JESUS, thank you for all you have done, are doing , and will do. For those of us who love you, we await your return!

Peace and blessings ❤️

Hominy grits and eggs.

Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?

My Grandmother used this brand. And chose the old fashion that took longer to make.

Warm delicious comfort food that went a long way and was affordable is just right for the tummy. And when it’s made for you by a loved one, it tastes even better.

On Sunday mornings before Church, or when we were home for dinner. This is one of the meals that reminded me of my childhood. The comfort food that truly was comforting. It filled me up and stayed with me till dinner time.

Southern cooking. And to me my Grandmother was the best cook in the world. Yes, I am sorry to say better than my Mothers because my Mother was a working Mom back then.

Praising GOD on Sunday, eating a good meal and meeting your Church family was like food for the soul and food for the body all in one day!

And let’s not forget the slab bacon slice you get with your grits and one egg. As a child, I had a glass of milk or juice to wash it down. 😋

Just one slice is all you need of fried seasoned pork belly or slab bacon.

That’s not a video of my Grandmother cooking the bacon. But l remember what I ate, and learned how to fix it in a cast iron skillet as she did.

She was a wise GODLY woman. Taught me how to be like her. And to make a good breakfast. Thank you GOD for my Grandmother and the wisdom she gave me.

Proverbs 22:6

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
