King James Version (KJV)
13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.
Today think about the information you pass on to the next generation. In order to understand where you are going. You need to know where we have been |

Perhaps the best known use of spirituals in the service of freedom during the slave period was the imbedding of “hidden” or coded messages in song lyrics for the purpose of clandestine (secret) communication on the Underground Railroad12. One of the first public revelations by a former slave of this practice of secret communication through spirituals is found in the autobiographical writings of the noted Black abolitionist Frederick Douglass, in which Douglass revealed to his readers that some songs interpreted by outsiders as referring to life after death in Heaven13, were actually understood within the enslaved.
In many communities across America we have develop a loss, mindless generation that has no respect for life or history. Their survival skills is by any means necessary. With the lack of God, the knowledge of our history and a purpose filled life. We have allowed criminals to take over our airwaves and headlines.

Gods purpose for all is to deliver his message of Love and Peace. That's why he sent his son Jesus Christ to tell his story. Today I decided to tell my family a story about their great great Grandmother.
As you perform a random act of kindness think about the message you can leave with your family.
