GET Served Up In Your Community…

WELCOME Back to another FreeStyle Friday!!!! Today we wanted to get a little more in-depth and reach out into the community to highlight a Fellow Freedom Fighter. This blog IS about being passionate about Empowerment and Freedom. THIS Blog is about community. This BLOG is About Humanity and serving others as we would want to be served. So sit back and enjoy today’s blog post as we lift up the efforts of work within the community of Service, Spirit, Truth, Motherhood, and Love…

Katherine V. Price

When we talk about community and build one another up, it takes more than just the words coming out of our mouths, it also demands action. There are so many ways that we can serve in our communities. One person may offer childcare, another may offer lawn service, but dig deeper. It says a lot when a family makes a conscious effort to get envolved. Some may think… I want my family to start a tradition of service to my community. This should be the feeling that we all have, especially when teaching our children the power of gratitude. I have been close friends with “Kat” for about 10 years. I have seen her raise her son as a single mom, and press through striving to become all the woman she can be, and today we solute her in her efforts.

It All Started With A FB Post

It was April 15th when I received the inbox from Katherine and this is what it said,

It was the most humbling experience I have ever had in my life … We were given a tour first and shown the area where the women sleep. They have single women there and women with children. It was heartbreaking to see them sleeping in a space the size of a cubicle ,with their kids. We were then taken into the kitchen, where we made plates/meals to served them. The meal was modist, but I felt like WOW, look at what we take for granted every day. Waking up in our own homes. My friend Cathy is the founder of the program and a pastor. She ministered to the women about spring cleaning and clearing out our internal house. She also touched on making sure our soil is right to plant a strong foundation.

I think the most touching thing for me at the end was when, the women were invited to come up who wanted prayer. We stood in a circle, held hands, prayed, and afterwards we hugged each other. I hugged one woman and she cried in my arms for awhile. I don’t know what was burdening her so, but I could feel that she was hurting. I continued to pray for her right there and I will continue to pray for her, the other women, and the children. I realized that 2 hours of my time is more valuable than anything else I could give monetarily.

So many people take so many things for granted… And any one of us… At any time could be 2 steps from being in a shelter….

Train A Child Up In The Way He Should Go

Community Service

There is nothing more that any parent wants than to raise good children. This is an ever plaguing thought to the single mother of male children or any parent for that matter. So it is a must that the youth be exposed to being of service to his or her community, so that the spirit of entitlement does not jade them, least they become menacing to society. That is what Katherine has done here, with her son Elijah. It is fare to say that, we are ALL charged as parents to teach to our children how to thrive in a society, which is richly stimulated by financial gain as power. This is why it is so important to expose the children to various socioeconomic conditions. While some of us do this and go broke for our children, just to have expensive shoes and clothes, in efforts to keep them current and trendy.

This can cause our youth to become desensitized to the woes of economical conflicts within our communities. This is why it is important for children to be empowered by being a force of light into community through service. The culture of today’s youth has to be taught by our actions. It is what we do as adults, that our youth learn in regards to discipline and not what is told them as their authority figures. The youth of today are highly creative and are seeing life in HD (high definition). It is our job as parents to help them interpret what they are witnessing in spirit and in truth. Being of sound body and mind ~ thus directing them on the path to freedom.

Concluding Thoughts

Think about this… What is it that you are exposing your youth to? Does it that enables him or her to see humanity as one connected force? Are you teaching your child that when one person lacks power, we are all short circuited? Does your child know that life can change from one day to the next? Do they know that the only promise in life is change? Are you teaching your child the language of gratitude?

Life is definitely too short to harp on the things that we wish we had, or the things we say we want to do. There is no time like the present to get up and take massive action to become a part of the productivity force. It’s “Spring Time” and we should be dusting away the winter fluff, turning our soil, and planting our seeds in order to reep a bountiful harvest.
