What’s Up with That Joe? Barack Obama and a Dreamer

Unbelievable! Barack Obama becomes the United States of America’s first Black president. A mile marker in time is established. As I celebrate, also I wonder. Where are we speeding to arrive? This comes at a time of chaos and great uncertainty, yet in the perfection of God’s tracking of time, everything is under perfect control. Since the beginning, God’s time has never missed nor skipped a beat, despite what mankind has done and experienced; therefore, illustrating God’s perfection and God’s control. For every travel that is timed, there are mile markers and there is a destination.
Barack should know that the dreams of men are always dependant on the dreamer. Never place the potentials of men on a pedestal. The combined power of men is still less than the power of God. I feel that as long as Obama places God first every time he seeks to solve a problem, a God’s answer will always be there; whereas, pondering results is a distraction. Black Americans have waited so long for this point in time. We did not die out, we lived. When one survives a horrifying and exhausting experience, the result is wisdom. Wisdom always comes at a great cost. After a toiling experience, what is the wisdom of the Black slave that finally saw a different race on the master’s porch and in the master’s chair? Can the slave ever behave differently from a slave? Perhaps, God will watch until he sees what he needs to see. After experiencing life until judgment, in the end we come to the conclusion that only two things ever really mattered. Did we live a life worthy of heaven or did we live a life worthy of hell? Why is it taking mankind so long to treat our brothers and sisters in the same way we treat God? But then again, maybe we are. Barack, you are now a beacon to the lost, the confused and to the weary. May God always keep his hand on you.
