You have always been quite peculiar. Not a man of many words but of much thought. I sit and wonder often if your thoughts consume you. Do they inspire you or discourage you. Do they give you life or create a garden of slow death. Do you dream dreams or wonder why things had to be.
I pray for you more than I pray for myself. I pray that surpassing peace will surround you as you find your way. I pray that favor will flood you. I pray that the right people will enter your life. I pray that love with rain, rule, and abide. I pray for your finances, your health, and your future. I pray for your future occupation that they will offer you the salary of a King and benefits of Royalty. I pray that those resources will build a home fit for a Queen to whom you will release all monies to.lol. May she be a lover of the Lord, wise in her dealings, humble in her approach, girded with strength, and committed to service. Hmmm...hell I guess I hope shes like me.lol. I pray for your children. That you will be the Priest, Prophet, & King of your home. That you will rear your boys to be men and your girls to me ladies. That you will provide for them, love them, care for them, support them, be present for them, and leave them something to build upon.
You are an overcomer, a beater of odds, a curse breaker. Because you have chosen a route different than what was handed to you I declare that many doors will open to solidify your refusal to be a man of the streets. May the abuse of substance never enter your life and commit to destroying you and your seeds. May you respect women/love them and never allow your wrath to cause her emotional or physical harm.
I am beyond proud of you! Im not gonna beat you over the head with God talk but I want you to spend much time in prayer as I will be in agreement with whatever your hearts desire shall be. As you continue your journey of pursuing higher education know that you have already won! This new journey youre taking of off campus living is causing me much grief as I have only been able to cope with you being away by telling myself you were on an extended vacation. Although I cry at the thought of you not having a reserved bedroom at my place I want nothing more for you than for you to be a man and handle business as a man. Im having a very hard time letting go but i know you will be fine. Lord keep my brother safe and give him the discernment needed to make the right decisions. Promise me youll keep my key on your key chain and every now and then stop by and take out my trash :(. Make sure you call first....tee hee hee.
Ive watched you grow into an outstanding young man and watching you leave the nest is bitter sweet....more bitter than sweet though. It seems just like yesterday you were riding your bike around the projects trying to make it home before dark. The days of me buying Jordans and Jerseys are such a distant memory yet a close recollection. There is a lot that bonds us together and as you embark on this new journey of independence know that I will still climb a mountain or swim across shore if you need me.
I love you and will make it my business to drive down 29 and make sure your room is clean! I love you brother. There is a special place in my heart that only you reside and I will take you with me no matter where life may take us.
Many Blessings,
From your big Sis Ebony
