Of Massacre And Men!

Of Massacre And Men! By Sonya McCllough Lockridge

As the literal gospel of The One And Only JESUS was birth into this world as fully man and fully God, an evil and troubled man named Herod sought to squelched the super natural spread of the good news of the fulfillment of the prophecy and the gospel of Jesus Christ, before it even began to grow!
Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Matthew 2:1
When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Matthew 2:3
In order to destroy the advent of the gospel, King Herod slaughtered all of the babies two years old and under, living in Bethlehem and in all the coasts thereof. 
And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. Matthew 2:13
The reality of evil exists and has existed, notably since Biblical Times. Living in a false reality does not cause evil to dissipated or disappear. Sadly, men and massacre is the way of the World. 
Thankfully, Jesus has already prayed that those who are not of the World will be kept.
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. From John 17
But, please know and understand, the cause, condition and cure for acts of evil men during Biblical Times is no different today, 2000 or more years later. The cause of evil is the lack of LOVE for The Love Law of the Lord and the cure is a loving communal relationship with The One And Only Jesus.
Return Now and amend your doings!
I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me. Jeremiah 35:15

We are CELEBRATING 150 YEARS of READING & WRITING for the entire month of July! Part of our celebration includes the sharing of 31 Black Women Writers for 31 Days of July! And, please, please be not surprised when you find me closing out the pack and the month, as not only a writer but a publisher, a photographer and a production artist extraordinaire for the cause of Christ Jesus. This is how we do it!  I did some research and it seams to me, it's been somewhat legal for black folks to read and or write for right at one hundred and fifty years or at least since 1870! Praise be to God, Anti-literacy laws are no longer  prevalent here in the land of plenty! Also, please know and understand many white people sacrificed much in opposition to the law of the day, to teach black people to read and write.  And finally, please know and understand, it's a one-sided thing to read the thoughts and  ideas of others, while it's a whole other animal to form thoughts, ideas and concl

These Days: I'm learning: How to Design a Screen Printed T-Shirt in Adobe Illustrator ! And it's so much more than this! As the language is different. I learned the basics of Adobe Illustrator while a student at Nashville State, twenty years ago. Then I used those basic skills, while working in the newspaper industry. Then, back in 2008, I started blogging. Well, here we are.  The first thing I need to get a handle on is all of the basic positions a design can be placed on a shirt! Y'all, I had no idea, there were so many!

I adopted my One Word 365 for the year 2024!

  The other day, I adopted my one word for the year. This is a practice I have participated in since 2009. Sadly, most years I selected one word which pertained to something I wanted to accomplish. And, there was even a year, I selected one word of the name of a person I wanted my year to focus on. But, this year I am intentionally turning my focus to who I currently am in Christ Jesus! Since returning to the city of Murfreesboro on 15 October of 2021, I have come to understand and realize the nature of my departure (Covid Times) and the true nature of my return. Since, I was working at Screen Art, I though working there was the reason for my return, until I found myself surprisingly not fired, but replaced without reason, on January 6th of 2023. This replacement without reason, exactly a month from the date of my sister's surgery, all but destroyed our finances, as we had also just moved into a larger condo. But, the Lord was with us and thankfully we were moved by the spirit to p
