FOOTPRINTS

One night I dreamed a dream.
I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to me and one to my Lord.
When the last scene of my life shot before me
I looked back at the footprints in the sand
and to my surprise,
I noticed that many times along the path of my life
there was only one set of footprints.
I realized that this was at the lowest
and saddest times of my life.
This always bothered me
and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma.
"Lord, you told me when I decided to follow You,
You would walk and talk with me all the way.
But I'm aware that during the most troublesome
times of my life there is only one set of footprints.
I just don't understand why, when I needed You most,
You leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child,
I love you and will never leave you
never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints
it was then that I carried you."

This passage basically sums up my feelings towards the Lord. There is no doubt in my mind that the Lord is always with me. Watching over me, guiding me and protecting me. I love how this passage said that during your most troublesome times, the Lord will lift you up and carry you. I believe that this is what he has done for me at certain points in my life during the past few years. For me, the bad things have outweighted the good things recently, but this is when my faith in Him is the strongest. When things are not looking so bright, just knowing that the Lord is with me and has something better planned for me keeps me going. But Im not saying that my faith is only strong when things are bad. When things are good, he is the first person I thank and acknowledge because it was his doing that got me there.
I am currently trying to be the best person I can be right now. Being in the Philippines and being isolated from everyone and everything back home has given me time to reflect on myself as a person and as a child of God. This isolation has given me the opportunity to clear my mind and listen to what God is telling me. Im really trying to find out who I am at this point in my life. Its going to be a stuggle but I know the Lord will be there to pick me up and carry me when I stumble.....
I never really got to say this but I just wanna thank my friend Kevin who got me started on my walk with the Lord a couple years back. No words can explain what he has done for me. And also the others that picked me up when I fell off. Dennis, Chrizle, Melody and my pops. Thanks. Also for the rest of my people, you are always ALL in my prayers.

BYE BYE BIBBY

The Atlanta Hawks have agreed to acquire veteran point guard Mike Bibby from the Sacramento Kings.

Hawks owner Michael Gearon Jr. says the Hawks are to send four players to the Kings. Among them are 2007 first-round pick Shelden Williams and starting point guard Anthony Johnson.

The Hawks also would send guard Tyronn Lue and veteran forward-center Lorenzen Wright to the Kings.

THERE THEY GO AGAIN

After the internet exploded with the pictures of the Kings Dancers partying. It is not a secret how the Kings dancers get down on a Friday night. The Sacramento Bee has picked up the story, and it looks like it might be a PR nightmare on the horizon for the franchise. As Felipe Gomez from Three’s Company would say “Chaam, Chaam, Chaam”.
