A Mother's Love!

Virgin with child
Proverbs 31:27-30King James Version (KJV)

27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.,

The entire month of May we will focus on mothers.  Why?  We are the backbone of society.  Not only do we bear children we care.discipline.feed. educated, guidance, nurture, Spiritual direction, teaching and wisdom. Just to name a few hats we wear.


Amidst the chaos, one mother was determined to let her rioting son know that she disapproved of his actions. Onlookers and news cameras captured the moment which has been widely discussed on social media.

Purpose

God place Jesus Christ  here on earth for a purpose.  Jesus Christ new he had work to do. Jesus had a very important message to deliver from God. He helped  with the process Jesus Christ met with his disciples.
Matthew:10-1 And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every affliction.
Jesus is the Light
 5 These twelve Jesus sent out, instructing them, “Go nowhere among the Gentiles and enter no town of the Samaritans, 6 but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 And proclaim as you go, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ 8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers,[a] cast out demons. You received without paying; give without pay

Closing remarks made in hazing death trial
FAMU Marching 100 Band
Over the next few days we will cover messages, messengers and purpose in our own life. This is the information we should pass on to our kids. Yes our kids. We have to many old and young people walking around with no purpose. Some people think all they need to do is eat, sleep and work .Let us not forget the career criminal, drug addict or gangster that never learned God's purpose for their  life.
Recently 3 members of FAMU marching band were found guilty of manslaughter. The FAMU Administration and band members lost sight of their purpose.  EDUCATION!

 Today while performing a random act of kindness remember that kind act has purpose. Be a Blessing and display Blessing of purpose.  Have a nice day!

In life when in doubt between right and wrong. God ask all to lean on him. https://youtu.be/PXBKaOkmQhw

Peace


Joshua 10:1King James Version (KJV)

10 Now it came to pass, when Adonizedec king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;

Baltimore Md., Franklin Mo., Afghanistan and Beirut. Yes I said Beirut. Today it is hard to tell the difference. We supposedly live in a civilize society where we can sit down and discuss our different opinions and stereotypes. 




 
Baltimore burns as some question police response

Before we leave home everyday we should arm ourselves with the prayer of protection.

The light of God surrounds us.
The Love of God enfolds us.
The Power of God protects us.
The Presence of God watches over us.
Wherever I am God is.
Wherever you are God is.

THANK YOU FATHER;THANK YOU FATHER;THANK YOU FATHER AND SO IT IS!

God Speaks II

The Lord Is My Light Art Print
The Lord is my light
Job 33:14-16New International Version (NIV)

14 For God does speak—now one way, now another—
    though no one perceives it.
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night,
    when deep sleep falls on people
    as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak in their ears
    and terrify them with warnings
  
  Sometimes when we make a request to God don't expect to receive the answer in an email or by direct letter in the US mail.God sometimes speaks to us in dreams and visions. Not all dreams are of God but their is always a message in our dreams and visions.

I Have a Dream


 

 

Compassion

Exodus 33:19New International Version (NIV)

19 And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

Compassion:  a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who is stricken by misfortune, accompanied by a strong desire to alleviate the suffering.


When we give our time and money to someone in need that is a great way to show compassion.

  As a random act of kindness show some compassion to someone less fortunate.  Be a Blessing and give a Blessing.
