Let The Wise Man . . Glory in this...
"Thus saith the Lord,
Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom,
Neither let the mighty man glory in his might,
Let not the rich man glory in his riches;
But let him (her) that glorieth... glory in this . . . .
That he understandeth and knoweth me,
That I am the Lord which exercises
- Lovingkindness,
- judgment, and
- righteousness, in the earth;
For in these things I delight, saith the Lord."
Jeremiah 9: 23,24
Lesson: Face em, son
Last weekend I sat in my son's living room, as J-boy to the handles to a Turtle fighting game on playstation! Engrossed, he climbed, he fought, he won. And the moment his figure dropped or was beat down - he looked and said.. Daddy help / fix it / how do I climb the wall?
Jalen was given finger placement and was content with daddy. Then, my son mentioned later that on another visit, Jalen was yet getting whupped up on... and he said "Jay - u have to face that dude. Face him down...u have your back turned. That's why he's whipping u!" Tony said, Jalen's eyes looked like a question mark????: face means - my eyes, nose, ears, teeth, mouth.... face the dude? And, Tony took another moment to explain the culturalism of the term "face em, face em down... u gotta turn to your attacker, here's the button - - face him and fight back"
Just a little later, as Jalen resumed play... the yell came "daddy, daddy, I did it, I faced him, I'm winning, come see!" Tony said, Good job, son!
There's a lesson in manhood... in a million years grandma would miss such a teaching opportunity.
A boy will mimic that male figure in his life... his shoulders will lean, he will pace his walk like dad. So, to take on an adversary: See, access, apprehend the situation. Then turn, face em, accepting the challenge in order the achieve the expected outcome u want!
