Can anything good come out of the hood? Many people reading this blog today grew up in Eden Green, The Gardens, Golden Gate, Riverdale, The Brown Houses, the row houses on Front Street and many more hood places. People looked at us like nothing good could come out of those places. Not only did a lot of good come out of the hood, it was all God. God made it possible for us to rise above the drugs, the thug mentality, the gangs and everything else that could have held us down. Therefore, we ought to thank God that we made it. We made it to a better life than what we had. We made it to a better future than what other people pronounced on us. We made it to see 18yrs, 21yrs, 25yrs and beyond. When I look back over my life and think things over, all I can say is; if it had not been for the Lord who was on my side where would I be.
Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
