Eagles & Chickens

Anybody who knows me understand that raising my children is my first ministry. I look at all the broken families, and how whenever satan wants to destroy a race of people, he first attacks the males, takes their ability to have wealth, and changes their thinking. I am trying my best to raise two young men, and a young lady who understands what it means to be an eagle and not a chicken.

I am not a big Kobe fan, but I respect him because he is an eagle on the court, while most other NBA ballers are chickens. Kobe's mind soars higher than most out there on the court, so when he wins, or does something great, he is not surprised, because he feels that is what he was suppose to do. Eagles don't see anything special about their abilities, because they were born and trained to do what eagles do.

It is clear that Lebron James is the best player in the league. He has more ability, more speed, strength and youth, but why can't he win a championship? Some blame the team, others the coach. Well Lebron hasn't learned how to be an eagle yet. Everybody in the world understands he is an eagle, but instead it seems that Lebron sometimes wants to be with the chickens.

The difference between Lebron and Kobe is, Lebron is playing for a championship, while Kobe is playing for a legacy.

I am trying to teach my first ministry not to play for a championship in life, but to play for a legacy in life.
