Vendor Writing

I met these two free roamers in a cul-de-sac I was cutting through. Adventure chicken and her sidekick, Lucky.

Conformed to the World

By John H., Contributor Vendor

I remember when I was small my dad reminded his kids of being conformed to the world. Many Americans don’t take something so important as this in consideration. Everything the world does we want to be a part of. For instance, Donald Trump is running for president again. He constantly speaks about getting the country back (White men). Think of it as, the country never belonged to you or y'all. How can you lead a country if you hate over half of the citizens? Bad enough we have a racist governor, we don’t need a racist president again.

I’ve been here all these years on Earth, and I never understood hate. I was studying my Bible and read a chapter with the rich man. The rich man showed much hate toward Lazarus. I guarantee you the last person the rich expected to see when he looked over the chasm was Lazarus. Even though Abraham explained to him why he was in hell, he wanted to go back and warn his brothers. Yet, many of Americans follow the rich man's example. Example of hate. Many do it because it's what the world does. In 1st John, God referred to the world as Satan. Believe it or not, many Americans are led by Satan. We hate our own Christian brothers and sisters. Sad story, “Huh!”

Gods’ word says, “Know that I am God” Many read the word but they are so disobedient as it what the world think or believe is more important than God’s word. They are conformed to the world. I see and hear things everyday. But it doesn’t mean I have to do as they do. I just keep on “Living that quite life, minding my own business.” I refuse to be conformed to the things of this world.

Real Life

By June P., Contributor Vendor

Being a vendor I meet a lot of different people.

I'm so grateful God didn't make us all the same. Oh, I know he made men and women, but why are a lot of people so mean? Not mean, I guess, they seem like a lot are mad.

Me, myself, I'm so grateful for who I am and what I got and it's not much. But he gave me what I need when I needed it. Not when I want it.

Wish my eyes had been open like this before my mother passed. But I'm grateful they are now.

Miss you mama, daddy, little brother and my best sister ever.

Thank you God for having them with you to watch over me and you too.

And thank you God for you. And all these Earth angels you put in my life today.

Thank you God and ALL.
