Ignore The Negative and Keep Pushing

-

I am an African American male and I live in Richmond, Virginia, USA.  I was walking my dog, and I passed some kids who were making negative comments like is that that lady or going to be a lady. I was at a funeral, and when it was about over I heard a guy near say the freaks come out at night. I was staying in a care home years ago and the lady who ran it and one of the clients who lived there too started lies about me.  They tried to say I was gay and me and another one of the guys in the house were lovers and that I took female hormones.  That same lady stole money from me while she was my payee for social security. I also get comments when I go to a store and they say ma'am to me, call me a lady, and say I need a bra.  All lies. I am not Gay and have never been with a man.

It's upsetting and people don't admit this, but Black people can be very cruel and negative. Some like to put others down to make themselves feel better. Crabs in a barrel.  I could have said something to that boy but I ignored him.  He was trying to provoke me.

You have to ignore negative people that want to steal your joy. There are some people that don't want you to be confident in yourself and successful.  They want you to look down on yourself that's why they try to bully you. Being Christian, you are going to have people try to pull you down or attack you because you are spreading God's word. Don't let them win. I am going to keep pushing for my dreams and my goals with this website and my other projects.

John 8:44

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Worship Him no matter the circumstance

There is no valley too deep for Jesus to reach. Call out to Him and he will comfort you. Believe in Him, and he will replenish you. Fall on your knees and worship Him, and He will lift you up. In life we make mistakes. Some are worse than others. The key to getting past it is not to dwell on it. There's an old adage, "One day at a time." How much can you get done in one day?  Setting daily goals chops your major ones into sizable proportions.  I am doing this blog to encourage others and to motivate myself.  When I go back and read some of my posts, I marvel at what I wrote.  My own words inspire and motivate me. I'm not trying to get the big head and puff myself up but to accomplish the goal of witnessing for Christ. The Great Commission Matthew 28:16  Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.   17  When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.   18  Then Jesus came to them and sai...

DON'T LISTEN TO THAT VOICE

 Whenever you try to do something positive, do you have a negative thought like "This is pointless, or nobody cares about this?" I want this blog and this community to be a success. I can't listen to that voice that the devil says it's pointless. I have no idea who is reading this. I could say something that will help someone. One person.  Of course, I'm not  Jesus, but he was walking with a crowd around him, and someone touched him and was healed. He did not know who it was but knew power had left him. This message isn't just for you, readers. This is for me. I have stopped and started this blog again and again. I MUST NOT STOP!!!. And there's another thing I need to recognize. This is not a popularity contest. If the stats are low, that should not deter me. I am going to a church now where the pastor, his wife, and I are the only ones regularly there. See the picture above. Look at the empty seats. That has not stopped this pastor. And he has really fixe...
