LaShawn Fowler “Hello, Pastor, is everything okay?” Brad asked compassionately.  “Yes, everything is just fine. I hope I’m not interrupting you. Were you asleep? If so, I can call you sometime tomorrow.” “No, I wasn’t asleep. Please, go ahead and share your thoughts.” “Thanks, I’ll try to be brief. You know the other day while we were talking, you mentioned something about us all being gods. And afterwards, when I finally began evaluating what you said, I couldn’t help pondering over your statement. In fact, it made me analyze how I view things; in comparison, with how the world views things. Surprisingly, I couldn’t help laughing, while thinking back to when I was young. Doing so evoked me to recall what my mother explained about this world.’ “She told my brother and me that all we had to do was put our trust in God, and everything would work out for the best. Funny, but I must admit, things turned out all right for me.

In fact, I’m often bombarded with the challenge of teaching my students how to stay focused and remain true to their beliefs. That’s why nowadays when I see one of my students falling too far behind, I make it my business to try and reach out and guide them back on track; at least before they fall too far behind.’ “Come to think of it, I’m reminded of the importance of making sure I stop and take a few moments each day, to help at least one person find their way. I believe doing so gives me a greater chance of making a difference in the life of another. And although, I have faith in God; I must admit, at times, I become a little doubtful.’ “That’s when I like to recall something I’ve read in the scriptures. But nowadays there are so many different versions; I get a little troubled by the various translations.  Still, I remain foundered in my faith that God sees me through everything I endure day- to- day; no matter what challenges come my way.” The Pastor sighed before responding. “You know, when I think about how the church is forced to embrace the issue of same-sex marriage, I tend to find myself…”  Read more at:    http://www.amazon.com/Professor-Stanley-Defends-Word-God/dp/1468058401/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329335985&sr=8-1
