OPPOSITION TO THE OPPOSITION…
Leading a credible alternative and genuinely challenging an entrenched dictatorship is a demanding, costly and often perilous undertaking. It is certainly no walk in the park.
It requires tenacity, conviction, courage, sacrifice and an unwavering commitment to the cause. Perhaps this is precisely why some find it easier to position themselves as the ‘opposition to the opposition’ rather than confront the difficult realities of challenging an entrenched system of power.
It is less costly, less demanding, less stressful and certainly less risky to be the opposition to the opposition.
But genuine political leadership demands more than criticism of those seeking change. It requires the courage to challenge the status quo, the discipline to build a credible alternative and the determination to translate the aspirations of citizens into a viable pathway to government.
The ultimate responsibility is not simply to oppose the opposition, but to confront the system that makes genuine opposition. Do better. Don’t just be the opposition to the opposition. #TheNew #FreshStart #Godisinit

Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away.”
John 6: 35-37
