When good people run things, everyone is glad, but when the ruler is bad, everyone groans. Proverbs 29:2 (The Message Bible)

2. Vote!
3. Pray for God's intervention and make your voice heard on the issues that are important to you.

Quote of the Day: Criticism

Don't criticize unless you are willing to help make things better!

Love Is...

During my teenage years, most of my friends were into singing, playing music, and songwriting. A few months ago the lyrics to one of the original songs that we sung came to mind. The song was written by a close family friend/cousin (if you're black you know what this means):

Love is needed in this world today

In special way
Needed across the land
So that everyone will understand
About God's love

Christians should be the personification of God's love. The only way the world will know about God's love is if we demonstrate it to them in how we live our lives and how we treat them, help them, and love them.

"Let me give you a new command: Love one another. In the same way I loved you, you love one another. This is how everyone will recognize that you are my disciples—when they see the love you have for each other." John 13:34-35 (The Message Bible)

Leave a comment describing what love is to you. You don't have to be spiritual!  An example could be: Love is...a mother looking proudly and smiling widely as her child gives a speech or love is...hearing your grandparent tell a story for the 25th time but listening to it like it was the first time. 

True Relationships

Any relationship that's not built on truth is not a relationship. No exceptions.

People are not who you want them to be, they are who they are...  

 

Nona O.

No Limits!

People will try to limit you because they are limited. Don't allow it!

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, US essayist & poet (1803 - 1882)

Affirmations from the Bible:

Happy New Year!!

The Gift of An Apology

A good heart-felt apology is a priceless gift. It can be worth more than a thousand gifts. But a good apology and a priceless gift (á la Kobe Bryant) is even better. ;-)

What is God looking for?

But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do,
what God is looking for in men and women.
It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor,
be compassionate and loyal in your love,
And don't take yourself too seriously—
take God seriously."

Micah 6:6-8 - The Message Bible - BibleGateway.com
