For my cousin, Charles
Holy, Holy, a king of this land had to leave us. I have always known of you. As a very young child I probably met you, but, I am glad I did finally get the opportunity to met you.

Your earthly work is over, big brother. My earliest memory of you is seeing you singing and playing the guitar. As I grew older, I observed your love and taste for fashion. God has called you home to rest, and the angels in heaven have welcomed you with songs of heavenly praise. May your soul forever rest in peace.

"Black Butterfly"
Morning light, silken dream to flight
As the darkness gave way to dawn
You've survived, now your moment has arrived
Now your dream has finally been born
[Chorus:]
Black Butterfly, sailed across the waters
tell your sons and daughters
what the struggle brings
Black Butterfly, set the skies on fire
rise up even higher
so the ageless winds of time can catch your wings
ooh...ooh
While you slept, the promise was unkept
But your faith was as sure as the stars
Now you're free, and the world has come to see
Just how proud and beautiful you are
[Chorus]
Let the current lift your heart and send it soaring
Write the timeless message clear across the sky
So that all of can read it and remember when we need it
That a dream conceived in truth can never die
Butterfly
Cause now that you're free and the world has come to see
Just how proud and beautiful you are
[Chorus]
Fly
Butterfly
Yeah, yeah, yes
Fly
As the darkness gave way to dawn
You've survived, now your moment has arrived
Now your dream has finally been born
[Chorus:]

what the struggle brings
Black Butterfly, set the skies on fire
rise up even higher
so the ageless winds of time can catch your wings
ooh...ooh
While you slept, the promise was unkept
But your faith was as sure as the stars
Now you're free, and the world has come to see
Just how proud and beautiful you are

God is never wrong
March 11, 2012
by Mel C
A king, who did not believe in the goodness of God, had a slave who, in every and all circumstances, said: My king, do not be discouraged, because everything God does is perfect, no mistakes! One day the king and his slave went hunting, and along the way a wild animal attacked the king. His slave managed to kill the animal, but could not prevent his majesty from losing a finger. Furious and without showing his gratitude for being saved, the nobleman said "Is God good? If He was good, I would not have been attacked and lost my finger." The slave replied: "My king, despite all these things, I can only tell you that God is good, and he knows "why" of all these things. What God does is perfect. He is never wrong!" Outraged by the response, the king ordered the arrest of his slave. Later, he left for another hunt and was captured by savages who made human sacrifices. On the altar, ready to sacrifice the nobleman, the savages found that the victim had not one of his fingers, so he was released. According to them, he was not complete so he could not be offered to the gods. Upon his return to the palace, he authorized the release of his slave, then, he received him very affectionately. "My dear servant, God was really good to me! I was almost killed by the wild men, but for lack of a single finger, I was let go! But I have a question: if God is so good, why did he allow me to put you in jail?" "My King, if I had gone with you on this hunt, I would have been sacrificed for you, because I have no missing finger; therefore remember, everything God does is perfect. He is never wrong." Often we complain about life, and negative things that happen to us, forgetting that nothing is random and that everything has a purpose. Every morning, offer your day to God, don't be in a rush. Ask God to inspire your thoughts, guide your actions, and ease your feelings. And do not be afraid. God is never wrong! You know why this message is for you? I do not know, but God knows, because he never makes mistakes....... The path of God and his word is perfect, without impurities. He is the way of all those who trust in Him, as he says in 2 Samuel 22: 31
