HALFWAY MARK

Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. With almost half of the year gone, IT'S TIME TO TAKE INVENTORY!!!! What have you accomplished so far? What have been your setbacks? Don't hold onto the past any longer because it's serving no purpose in your future!!!! The Bible says that your best days are ahead of you!!!! Don't get off track--keep focused on what God has for you to do in this season.

KNOW YOUR WORTH

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you (Matthew 7:6). You are God's masterpiece. Don't allow others to treat you with disrespect. If you're around people that can't see the fullness of you, then it's time to make some new friends. Proverbs 27:17 equals friends building each other up to iron sharpening iron. Anyone that constantly puts you down is NOT a friend. People will not know your worth if you don't know.

BEAMING LIGHTS

Pro 15:30(KJV) The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat. Pro 15:30(NLT) A cheerful look brings joy to the heart; good news makes for good health. In honor of Women's History Month, I want women everywhere to understand their true worth. Proverbs 31 truly explains the heart of REAL women. We can be housewives, business owners, etc.; we can be whatever God has it set for us to do. Understand that there are SEASONS to everything; so you need to do these things at the RIGHT time (not on your time). We are the BREATH AND THE ATMOSPHERE of our surroundings. Wherever we go we should, as a whole, brighten someone's day and not cast darkness. There's something about a woman and her gift to shine. Don't take it lightly, ladies. Take care and God bless.

BLACK HISTORY IS ALL AROUND US

As I look around, I see Black History everywhere. I see it when I take a seat on the bus (in the front, of course). I see it when I eat in a restaurant (not a colored sign to be found). I see it when I look at my college diploma. I see it when I cast my vote on Election Day. I see it when I look at pictures of those who paved the way before me. I think of the Memphis Sanitation Strike of 1968, where the workers on protest held I AM A MAN signs. Something so simple, but poignant to remember!!!! We are men and women that matter in this world!!!! BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE ARE MEN AND WOMEN IN CHRIST JESUS!!!! Never overlook the history that surrounds you!!!!
