GABEO SUPPORTS QUITMAN 10


ATLANTA (January 23, 2012) – Representative Tyrone Brooks (D-Atlanta), President of GABEO (Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials) and Vice President Elaine Huckabee Lucas will be attendance with other elected officials for a press conference on Monday January 23, 2012. 

Sen. Emanuel Jones (D-Decatur), chairman of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus (GLBC), will hold a press conference to bring awareness and support for the officials in the “Quitman Ten”, which includes three school board members and nine Brooks County residents indicted on Nov. 22, 2011, on several counts of alleged unlawful possession of ballots that favored the board members in the 2010 Brooks County school board election.  The case involved only 10 defendants until November 2011 when two more people were indicted in the case. 

It has been said that all board members were outstanding teachers and highly regarded in their community and in their educational tenures.  Before the election the school board makeup was majority Caucasian after the election the School Board make up was 4 African American and 3 Caucasian. 

The three suspended Board members, who have not been convicted of anything, were removed from office on January 10, 2012 by way of any Executive Order from Governor Nathan Deal. The indictments are not related to or adversely affect the administration of the office of Brooks County School Board of Education.

The suspension returns the Brooks County school board to a white majority.

Random Thought as The King Holiday approaches

In 1941 A.Phillip Randolph planned a march on Washington for Jobs and Justice
In 1963  There was the historical March on Washington with Dr. Martin L. King Jr. for Jobs and Justice.
In 2010 Rev. Al Sharpton had a March on Washington for Jobs and Justice.
Are we still to believe in 2012, that we will still get Jobs and Justice?? 
We must continue the fight, we must continue to vote and we must stand up and create our OWN jobs and be entrepreneurs....Now is the time to think about what gifts you have and how you can render that gift as a service to make a living...

EMOTIONALLY UNAVAILABLE

The term "emotionally unavailable"  refers to those who create barriers between themselves and others in an effort to avoid emotional intimacy. Relationships with emotionally unavailable people are depressing and distressing, as their partners end up feeling neglected, unloved and unwanted. Emotionally unavailable people will actually seek out relationships with others, but the problems begin when they are unable to commit fully to their relationships.  They have a host of excuses as to why they can’t be as much of a partner as you would like them to be and then they blame “timing”, and tell you that “If only things were different, you’d be the perfect "girlfriend" or "boyfriend" but that doesn’t explain why they continue to play havoc with your emotions.
Mr. and Ms. Unavailable are very much about the chase. They pursue hard, shower you with attention and lay it on thick in order to reel you in, but from the moment that you are hooked and things get comfortable, they back off. Because emotionally unavailable people often behave as if they want to be in a relationship, it's important to be able to recognize the signs that a person is emotionally unavailable.  Find out the warning signs.

God cares about what concerns us

Psalm 138: 7-8
Though I walk in the midstof trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies and Your right hand will save me.  The Lord will perfect that which concerns me;





 Perfect means to end, finish, accomplish, come to an end, cease, to perform and to fulfill.  God will perfect (fulfill) all his promises and purposes for our life and he is committed to it.  God cares about you and he is concerned about you.  Never feel that God has forgotten about you or your problems and concerns.

Consider the Ant

A lot of you know that during the month of December I fast and wake for 5am prayer.  I'm so amazed at the things that are being revealed to me.  I opened my bible this morning and went to Proverbs 30:24-28.  It was not my intent to go here but I landed there.  The scripture reads:

Proverbs 30:24-28

King James Version (KJV)
24There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:

25The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;
26The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks;
27The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands;
28The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces.

I remember reading and studying this passage before, but it moved me so this morning that I had to put my thoughts on paper.  I will share some information with you guys.  I'm always referring to the dictionary when I'm reading so ofcourse I went there today because I wanted some more detail about the ant. 
THE ANT (vs. 25)In verse 25 it states that ants are "not strong. I believe this to be true. After all, I can  step on an ant and crush him! But in relative terms ants have amazing strength.   If you've ever been at a picnic or outdoor event and dropped food and now ants are everywhere.  Next time before you crush them take the time to watch them in action.  While carrying this food they're tireless and strong.   I read that the ant can carry ten to fifty times their own weight! That would be like a 150 lb. man carrying an object of 1,500 to 7,500 pounds! But more important than that, ants are constantly making preparation for the future. It seems they never rest. They are in constant motion as they go about their work.
Ants are also armored. Scientists call the hard, outer shell of an ant "chitin." It protects them from a hostile environment and contributes to their strength. We should be armoured as well. We  live in a hostile world. All around us are evil men who would undo our faith. But God has provided us with a unique armor:

"...take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand" Ephesians 6:13.

Like the ant, we must constantly prepare for the future. We must tirelessly go about the work of the Lord. "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work" John 9:4.


* there was so much coming at me with these scriptures that I just could not put it all here.  If I did it would be a book. When you have time today read up on all these animals, it will bless you.*

Be Blessed
