Inside the Chisolm Trail

By Reverend L D Ervin and L.D. Ervin

Janie Mason] Chisolm...a descendant of a royal family who ruled Scotland between 1200 and the mid-1700s. No longer in power, the ruling family and ancestors (the Chisolm Clan) migrated to the Americas. Some of the "Clan" leaders, after settling near Charleston, South Carolina became owners of slave plantations.

As the civil war ended in 1865, Janie Mason had become "friendly" with Samuel, a former slave; a relationship forbidden by cultural practices, strict laws and "outward appearance." Janie, a descendant of wealth, royalty and influence rejected the standards designed by humans, instead chose to follow the standards designed by God; she "followed her heart."

The life of the author, like the life of his ancestors was set in motion based on standards designed by humans. Like his ancestors, he deviated from some of those practices; fixing his sights on God's light. Unaware of his ancestral DNA, his life was guided by the light that directed his ancestors. Influenced by that light, he refused to surrender to the ways of the world. Armed with faithfulness and obedience, he was constantly reminded of the benefits of following the "greatest light," which continues to serve as his guide....
