Happy September 1st. 😊Meditation for the new month.
Who is He? Who am I?
Expand your knowledge of who the Creator is and our relationship with him as we discover identity, purpose, and function.
Opinion on the Senate Confirmation Hearings of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson
What is it going to take? When will the madness of incendiary voices to stop? This episode we'll share and recent article by Brea Baker entitled On Ketanji Brown Jackson, 'Making History,' And the expense of the Black Women's Well-Being.”
What will it take for others to understand not only the power but also the fragility of the black woman? Where is the Kingdom of God in this scenario?
My opinion about the relationship and the intersection of faith, and power; trauma and celebration as the Senate confirmation hearings go forth for this nominee to the Supreme Court.
Hope Out Loud
The war in Ukraine; the economy; the violence; political posturing; Covid-19 impact...Can you believe what's happening? How do we get through this?

Divine Love- Charles Haddon Spurgeon
1 Kings 17:16
The barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which He spake by Elijah.
See the faithfulness of divine love.
The Stakes are High
Here it is. Another request, another change. You have to pivot, when you want to stand still particularly when there are more questions than answers. Time seems to be running out, and there's no one to pick it up for you. But wait. The answer is right before you even during those times of discovery, disbelief and uncertainty. It is in those times when you have to stand. The surest strategy is maintaining a relationship with God. Some people promote work-life balance as if you can pick it up at Starbucks. However, our chance for stability is grounded in focus on God. The writer of Philippians said being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6 states... "being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." The Stakes are High, but they have always been. We are reaching for the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus.
For God So Loved You
Wow. God loves me this I know. Do I really think God loves me knowing what I am and what I've done?
The answer can be found in John 3:16. It is in Chapter 3 of the epistle of John that the apostle tells the reader and seeker the depth of God's love for us. Want to know?

Create Love Space
We have a mandate to follow Matthew 22:37-39. Love God and Love our neighbor.

Pray for Ukraine and Russian people and their leaders. Pray for Salvation.
The Infinite Riches of God
"See the faithfulness of divine love" wrote Spurgeon. This meditation written by Charles H. Spurgeon is a beautiful reminder of the infinite riches of God even during the worst of times.
Love is the Winner from A Daybook of Grace
Matthew 22:37-39 tells us to love the Lord your God with everything and to love others as yourself. This is a challenge, sometimes a daily one. But we are to love the unlovable including ourselves. In the midst of conflict, love will always be the answer. As we pray for Ukraine, and other nations, our prayers need to be centered and grounded in Matthew 22. Love is the first and greatest commandment.
A Call to pray for Ukraine
The invasion of the nation of Ukraine by Russian forces prompted a call to pray.

Celebrate Joy
Charles Haddon Spurgeon once said, " I do not think the church rejoices enough. We all grumble enough and groan enough: but very few of us rejoice enough." Celebrate Joy in the midst of a worldwide pandemic may seem a little off centered, but I believe it is what we need. Joy is one of the fruit of the Spirit Galatians 5:22-23. It should be a way of living for all those who possess to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. How is your joy bell? Today's message is taken from a sermon delivered by Spurgeon on February 6, 1881.
