BLACK MAN – FLESH OF MY FLESH – BONE OF MY BONE HOW DO I LOVE THEE…

By  Deborah M. Cofer

MY TRIBUTE TO BLACK MEN IN HONOR OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH:

I love thee with a love that evokes a sense of harmony, balance, and pride as I observe the consistency of your actions, the wonder of your wisdom, your ability to walk in the power of your divine destiny…with on-star precision, and the conviction with which you lovingly Xecute God’s strategic plan for a better life for the both of us.

I love thee to the depths that no mere mortal possesses the ability to infiltrate, denigrate, manipulate, or annihilate;

I love thee enough to rely on the God-given power of “discernment” to stand against the myriad of myths and multiple misnomers that have been calculatingly designed to minimize your worth, stifle your power, and disintegrate the sanctity of our connection;

I love thee with a passion that supports healing…from the pains of the past, the struggles of today, and the uncertainty of our tomorrows;

I love thee and pray, every day, for both your spiritual and physical wellbeing and for God’s blessings that we may continue to walk together within the fullness of the light that serves as tangible proof of His presence and pleasure with our performance…as well as a rock-solid sign, to the Xternal world, of our collective strength;

I love thee despite the fact that the world fears the divinity of your purpose, the power of your potential, and the awesome reality of the man you truly are;

I love thee because time and time again you prove that despite your visible and invisible “human” flaws…deep within, there is a heart of gold where love overflows – a love so powerful that it possesses the super-natural ability to transcend and surpass the limitations of human comprehension, as well as the misnomers of all secular interpretations;

I love thee even though years of ungodly conditioning have attempted to instill the “fear of you,” my Radiant Man of God, within me.  But, with God’s ever-present guidance, I now possess…with crystal clear clarity, the understanding that it was not my own fear I was feeding on, but rather the fear projected onto me by those who allow fear to remain a factor in their lives;

Xtraordinary Man of God…because I love thee, I choose to always rebuke that fear so that we can grow forward, together, with the caliber of wisdom and confidence that will enable us both to break through every barrier placed before us;

I love thee despite the chains of oppression, the agony of suppression, the pain of separation…and the subliminal weapons of distain still aimed in our direction;

Yes, My Incredible Man of God, I love thee and I vow to never allow neither my mind nor my mouth to become weapons that penetrate, separate, and ultimately break the bond of the endless love we share.  My love for you is undeniable, unwavering…and the faith that our love shall persevere and always prevail is unbreakable;

Together, united as one, my victorious and glorious Man of God we are strong and invincible!  And I make this promise to you…that no matter what psychological or physical weapons of destruction manifest in an attempt to tarnish and destroy our love, our family, our people…our destiny, I will forever stand strong beside you, love you, and honor both your needs and your guidance;

It is said that all are deserving…but not all are worthy.  Today, tomorrow, and every day for the rest of my life, with this pledge to you, I wholeheartedly affirm my commitment to the special love we share.  I recognize and acknowledge that you are, indeed, not only deserving, but worthy.  You have earned both my trust and my love by not just “talking the talk,” but also “walking the walk.”  And, just because you are who you are, I love thee with a depth that neither time nor evil possess the power to destroy;

My Radiant Man of God…you are, without a doubt, a glorious manifestation of God’s greatest creation and a T.R.U.E.
