​"...But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, says the LORD, I will put My law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be My people.  And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD; for they shall all know Me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, says the LORD; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”   

Jeremiah 31:32-34

 
​

There is a reason that Jesus says, "For where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there Am I in the midst of them."  (Matthew 18:20)  It is the praying people of God who form a church; and, it is people who invoke God's presence with their prayers, supplications, and submittal to God's will.  We have all seen empty boarded up churches in complete disarray across our nation; God is not sitting in those churches waiting for people to show up. We have also seen storefront churches with only 20 people praising and worshiping, no matter what some of us may think about their choice of venue, God is in the midst of them.  It is the people who invoke the presence of God. 

Of course, the problem in the church is also the people.  We bring our egos, issues, past experiences, pretense, and fear with us when we gather together. Sometimes not completely understanding that those are the very things we need to leave at the door of the church before we enter.  Our church is supposed to be a refuge, a place where we gather to invoke God's presence.  Not because we cannot invoke God's presence in the park, or in our homes, or in our closet, but because, we have set aside a specific place to invoke reverence, worship, praise, and hope.  It is also a place where non-Believers, because of the presence of Believers, can feel, see, and /or hear the presence of God; not because of the place, but because of the people. 

...Architects will tell you if a building is boarded up, the building will decay much faster than if people were in it using its doors, floors, and walls. Even in decay, with people in it, it will last longer. There is something very special about the presence of God’s people. God has hidden a secret treasure map deep within the recess of our hearts for us to find Him. Let us gather together, because together, we invoke His ultimate power in unity to combat evil.  However, even then, understand that you in your solitude, through Jesus Christ, have a direct conduit to God.   L.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path.”     Proverbs 3:5-6


There was a debate on a popular television news show a few years ago, which focused on the age-old question concerning the presence of God. The host asked a panel of prominent intellectuals,“Is there a God?” Both atheists and Christians were represented on the panel. As you can imagine, the debate became quite heated with opposing viewpoints. The host then allowed members of the live studio audience, both pro and con, to question the panelists. I can recall one woman's statement in particular, she said, 
​
"I am an atheist. I do not believe in God. There cannot be a God because, there is so much evil in the world! And, if there is one, he must be evil because he allows innocent people to die and innocent babies to be born with diseases. Explain why your God allows this!"

She was very passionate while making her statement, and I could easily see her anger as she asked her question. The thing is, as I listened to her tirade, I thought to myself, “…She is a Christian waiting to happen.”  It's not that she does not believe in God; it is that, she is angry with God for a personal issue. Something occurred in her life that she does not understand and has not accepted, so hating God became her target.

This happens to a lot of people; even Christians. While we love God, it is sometimes difficult to understand why bad things occur in our lives. The truth is, if we can see pass the problem and focus our trust and faith in God long enough, we will find strength and understanding in the problem. Because, oftentimes, the problem clouds our Faith.

Consider this reverie; go back in your life a few years ago, for some people, it may be only a few months ago; try to recall something you considered a major problem. -Is it still a major problem for you today; or, has it strengthened you?  If it occurred again could you walk through it; or, would it paralyze you all over again?  Could you help another person go through that same issue to become their pillar of strength; or, would you watch them suffer from the sidelines?  When you look back on your life, it does not matter whether years have passed, months, or days; in many instances, what you really needed was the strength to move your attention away from the problem, and onto the Holy Spirit, so that you could recapture your Faith in God.  

If you can keep your focus embedded in the Power of God long enough, given time, you will learn to understand the role that the problem played in the grand scheme of your life. When this occurs, you will eventually come to the realization that God has already made YOU stronger than any problem.  L.

Healing Hands

​"Now as He was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground; but He touched me, and set me upright.”    
​
Daniel 8:18
 

​Have you ever wondered whether or not there is true healing in the hands of an anointed person?  Do you ask yourself whether or not the blessed olive oil actually works in the hands of a healer?  Working with my 13-yr old nephew to boost his science test scores, we flipped through a picture book of the human body for him to learn more information about puberty—yes, puberty.  As I was going through the book, I noticed a Kirlian electromagnetic photo of a healer’s fingertips. Apparently, researchers wanted to know whether the act of laying-hands-on healing was true; so, they took special photos using an electromagnetic device to see if it would capture a physical change in or around the healer’s hands while in the act of healing. 

The first photo captured the blue electromagnetic field of the healer’s fingertips prior to contact with the sick. The second photo was an image of the fingertips while they were actually in the act of healing. —While the healer's hands were in the act of healing, viewers could see a fiery white break in the circle of light surrounding the healer’s fingertips, This fiery white-lit area was the point of contact between the healer’s fingertips and the patient. It signaled the exact area where the transference of energy leaves the healer and enters the Believer. Although I did not know this information previously, there is a very specific instance in my life when I changed the way I hugged other people. 

As a young manager I was having an especially tiring day.  Although, at the time, I had no idea it showed on my face; but, I was totally worn out.  Deciding to take a much-needed break, I left my office.  On the way, I ran into an older more seasoned manager, an Italian woman probably about forty at the time. We spoke often, and I trusted her wisdom, advice, and judgment.  She took one look at me, and said, “Hi, are you okay?”  “Oh, I’m fine.” I said, in that customary tone we use when we really want to keep others at a distance. “Oh?” She said softly, “Come here.”  As I came to her, she pulled me towards her, and she hugged me, her two arms wrapping completely around my shoulders. I thought it was going to be that customary five-second hug people normally give each other, but she held on. Suddenly, I felt completely at ease and my entire body relaxed. I did not know it at the time, but I really, really needed that hug!  “Do you feel better?” She asked.  “Yes.” I said. “You sure?” She said, as she continued hugging me.  “Yes,” I said again, limp in her arms, “--I really needed that!”  As I walked back to my office, I promised myself, from that day forward, if I hugged anyone, male or female, I would fully hug him or her, so hopefully, my hug would heal whatever ailed them. 

In my favorite church, there is a specific point in the service where every person literally leaves their seat to greet one another. It is a combination of hugging, kissing, and shaking hands, depending on how well you know the other person. It is an act of gratitude, acknowledging God’s gift of experiencing yet another week together. If you are married or have children, hugging should be a given. However, as single New Yorkers, we can go without touching another human being for days, even months. New York City is a friendly city; but, not "touchy-feely"  friendly.  No matter what city you live in, if you plan on hugging someone, truly hug him or her.  It transfers God's Healing Power to the other person; and, there’s a pretty good chance it will cure whatever is ailing you too!   L.

Your Thoughts: Joy!

“Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; Thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness.”  Psalm 30:11


There’s a Christian song in which the lyrics state,"You turned my mourning to dancing, You turned my sorrow to joy, You gave me beauty for ashes, you came and made my heart sing."   Yet, we are still taken by surprise by all types of issues that plague us for one reason or another; and, we meet people every day who are in various state of sadness. Who can be happy all the time?

Being a Christian is not necessarily about happiness, it is about innate joy. Happiness is normally based on something or someone; it fluctuates based on the time, place and state of mind that you are in.  Joy, on the other hand, is a state of being. It is understanding that God's Love for you supersedes the fluctuations of your day to day emotions, routines, or dilemmas.  -You can have true Joy and still be saddened by the current state of events surrounding your life or daily routine.  When the Bible speaks of Joy, it is really referring to a state of being.  -A radical sense of inner peace that governs our understanding of every event, good or bad, happy or sad.

As Believers, we learn to live in the moment, but, hope in the future. The current events in our lives do not shape us. We hold fast to the Ultimate Power of God. It shapes our reaction to each event with the confidence of understanding that, good or bad, happy or sad, God is still  in control. -And, ultimately,  "This too, shall pass.”  L.

​**Now it is your turn to write your thoughts regarding today's verse in your journal.

Christian Entrepreneurs

"...Simon Peter said unto them, "I go a fishing." They say unto him, "We also go with thee." They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing. But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore; but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. Then Jesus said unto them, "Children, have ye any meat?" They answered Him, 
"No."   And He said unto them, "Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find." They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.”   
John 21:3-6 



Like many Americans, I believe that the most proven way to have monetary wealth is to be an entrepreneur. We have only to look at, Forbes 100 Richest People in America, to find that more than 90% are entrepreneurs or the heirs of entrepreneurs. 

The problem is, being an entrepreneur is never easy; it tests the limitations of your beliefs. If you really want to learn who you are and what you truly stand for, create a cash reserve (very important), stop your daily 9-5 (gradually if possible), and become an entrepreneur.  Whether you open a store, create a product, work from home online, or are part of one of those multi-level marketing businesses; your stamina, faith, and core beliefs, will be tested. There will be things you learn about your core beliefs that will shock you. Your core beliefs will be threatened; and, you will be asked to do things for monetary gain that will either test your faith or enhance your lack of faith. You will learn your true feelings about money in relation to God, time, love, and people (family, friends, business associates, etc.)  
I added love to the list, because it will test the true depths of your deepest relationships.  And, if you don’t know God as yet -you will.  —All this, and still most entrepreneurs would not trade places with their 9 am-5 pm counterparts. 

When we look at the motley crew Jesus selected as His twelve Apostles, He chose very specifically.  At least 1/3 of His Apostles were entrepreneurs; fishermen by trade: Peter, Andrew, James, and John, had to rely on the ocean for a living. Like most entrepreneurs relying on the ocean for a living, you must have faith to believe that you will reap a bounty you cannot clearly see in so vast an ocean. The test for most Christian entrepreneurs will be obedience. The kind of obedience found in today’s biblical verse, where Jesus tells Peter and the others to cast their nets on the RIGHT side of the boat; even though, they have just spent an entire day and night reaping absolutely nothing from the ocean.  Nevertheless, they were obedient.  And, as a result of their obedience, they received a net so full of the ocean’s bounty that they had difficulty reeling it in. 

So, for the entrepreneurs who are having difficulty extending their limits, it’s time to step up your faith, focus on obedience, and cast your net on the RIGHT side. This way, like Peter, you too will reap an overflowing bounty so full from God, you will have difficulty reeling it in alone. L.

Staying Lit

“For Thou will Light my candle; The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.”  Psalm 18:28


It is astounding how one small candle can easily permeate complete darkness, while radiantly revealing anything within the path of its rays. The Light not only sets you aglow, it highlights every item within the room. The closer any item is to the Light, the more radiant it appears. 

There is a wonderful story, from an anonymous author, that I received via email about a man who decided that he really did not want to return to church any longer. When the Pastor of his church stopped by for a visit, the man answered the door, greeted the Pastor, and invited him in. Both men sat in separate recliners, in front of a blazing fire in the man’s den, neither saying a word. Words were unnecessary; both men knew why the Pastor was there. 

As they were silently watching the fire, one of the hot coals fell out of the blazing fire onto the hearth surrounding the fireplace. Both men silently watched the single coal as it sat by itself on the ground, its blazing light getting dimmer and dimmer until it was close to black. The Pastor slowly got up from his chair, leaned down, picked up the coal, placed the coal back into the fire, and silently sat back down. Both men watched as the corners of the little coal slowly lit until it became blazing hot. After a few minutes of watching the transformation of the coal, the Pastor said, “It’s time I got going.” Both men arose and went to the door. 
“-So, I will see you on Sabbath?” The Pastor asked, turning to look at the man. His question posed more like a statement in a questioning tone than an actual question. “Oh yes, Pastor!”  The man answered jubilantly, “I will see you on Sabbath!” 

As we commune within the body of Christ, we share in the Light of God, radiating His essence within the body and unto the world. Each Believer is a tiny spark of God’s Light in this world. Yet, sparks have a way of fizzling out. So, we must maintain a concerted effort to strengthen our connection. The closer we are to the source of all Light, God, the more illuminating we will be to the world. 
The question today is, “Are you sharing your Light; or, like the little coal, has your Light dimmed?”  L.

Your Thoughts: Thy Prayer Is Heard!

4/23/2020

“And when Zacharias saw Him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him. But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias; for thy prayer is heard...”     Luke 1:12-13 (a)
 

How do you respond when you realize that God has answered your prayer?   –Do you drop to your knees in prayer, submission, and worship?  –Do you dismiss it as a coincidence?  –Or, do you simply not even recognize its occurrence?   

Zacharias stood in questioning disbelief as the angel told him the specifics of his soon to be answered prayer for a son. Yet, this was the response to a prayer he and his wife had been waiting on for many years. So much so, that their bodies had aged out and their patience exhausted. Yet, when the response to his prayer finally came, God’s response was unrecognizable to him. Instead of jumping for joy, he questioned the angel Gabriel about its authenticity. And, because he questioned a personal message delivered by the archangel of God, he was stricken with the inability to speak for at least nine months.
 
Like Zacharias, there are times when God has responded to our prayers that we stand in disbelief, deciding that the occurrence must be coincidental or happenstance. Because, although we prayed for a desired outcome, many times we simply do not believe or recognize that there will be a bona fide response to our plea. We become the lone man in the ocean that is waiting on God for rescue, yet, refuses to take a passing canoe. Then God sends a yacht, and still he refuses to board, supposedly still waiting on Him. Finally, God sends an ocean liner, yet the man still refuses to board. When he dies, he asks God, “Why didn't You save me?” To which God responds, “I sent you three rescue boats, you dismissed them all.”
 
God’s paradigm is unlike ours; His response is often right in front of us. However, we must open our eyes to actually see it. We get so caught up in focusing on our problems, that we forget all the blessings that we have already received. Take the time to recognize your blessings as they appear; they may not come to you in the package that you originally expected. Today, let us remember to take the time to fully appreciate and offer gratitude for all the blessings we have in our lives.  Since, no matter how massive our problems may appear, we know that we are already blessed by God.  L.
 
**Now it is your turn to write your thoughts regarding today’s verse.

Reaping, Not Sown

4/22/2020

​"And I have given you a land for which ye did not labor, and cities which ye built not, and ye dwell in them; of the vineyards and olive-yards which ye planted not, do ye eat.”  
​Joshua 24:13



When we speak about being "blessed" by God, we usually mean that we are reaping where we have not sown. And, the reality is, many times the blessings we receive emanate from a completely unexpected source. Our tiny mustard seed of faith, watered and blessed by God, spreads across the earth taking our hopes and dreams with it. 

When the children of Israel left the wilderness, they were confounded in the Promise Land; they had no idea how they were going to survive. It was completely inconceivable to them, where they would live, what they would eat, or whom they would encounter. Although God had already foreseen and taken care of their every need, forty years had passed, and the new younger generation needed to learn how to trust God on their own. 

Joshua reminded this new generation how vitally important it was for them to continue to follow the laws of God, not simply because He was God; but because, He had blessed them abundantly, allowing them to destroy their enemies, and to reap where they had not sown.

Today's verse, found in the book of Joshua, speaks about the blessings God gave to the Children of Israel after they crossed over the Jordan River.  It is a reminder to remember the bestowing of the land that He handed to them in the presence of their enemies. Like the Children of Israel, sometimes, as a modern Believer, you may need a gentle reminder to acknowledge God's Blessing in your life.  

When you follow God’s agenda, He will bless you beyond your imagination; and, without question, you will reap where you have not sown. You will prosper where others have begun the work and given up. You will lay claim to abundance, although you did not create it. —And, you will gain that, which you did not labor. You simply have to remember to obey God and trust in His Word.  L.

In The Day of Trouble

​ 
"Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer, and attend to the voice of my supplications. In the day of my trouble I will call upon Thee; for Thou will answer me.”    Psalm 86:6-7


There are times when we are bombarded with all kinds of issues.  We allow these issues to become our idols, giving them all our time, attention, and devotion. We allow them to take control of our lives, not remembering that above all, there is God. This seems like a grandiose statement. And yet, no problem should take precedence over God; since, every problem is a proving ground for us to use our faith. 

Problems prove our faith. We may not like our problems; yet, they offer proof to all watching that we really are the kinds of Christians that actually believe what we say about Christ. It proves to those watching that we really believe what we sing about Christ. It continues to prove what we think; and, more importantly, how we act when our backs are against the wall and all seems bleak.  Do you really believe, or are you simply playing a Believer on reality television. 

Consider this, everything that you use today, whether it is your cell phone or the toilet, evolved because of a problem. Something began as a problem and someone created a solution for it. We could not see in the dark, so we created a torch, then a lantern, then a bulb; until, we captured a glowing gas in a tube and called it fluorescence and neon.  So Really, is there anything too hard for God? 

Stop and take a look around. Signs of trouble are everywhere, in everything, and yes, even for everyone. For everyone, we have hospitals, supermarkets, malls, entertainment, music, etc.; all providing a solution to a problem. If the solution is not for everyone, it won’t last very long. It will cause another problem, and someone will create a solution to fix that problem. So, if we, with our limited ideas and understanding can create solutions to our mundane problems, then, can’t God provide a solution for our truly grand problems? 
Nothing is above God. There is nothing that can be a problem for you where God cannot offer the solution—nothing!

Today’s text reminds you that, God has promised that in your day of trouble He will answer you, as long as you call on His name.  And, just in case you are still thinking, “There is one problem that God cannot solve, —the problem I’m going through right now!”   Oh really?  Think about this.   God even devised a permanent solution for death, Jesus Christ.  So really, is there anything too hard for God?  L.

Replenishment!

"The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my Soul..."     Psalm 23:1-3a


Today, take a few minutes to breathe, literally.  If you already know the beginning verses of the 23rd Psalm, then close your eyes and inhale deeply, swelling your chest with air. Do it loud enough to hear it. Then exhale loudly. Repeat it at least 3 times while meditating and slowly repeating the words in today's verse. Use it whenever you need it; it will replenish you. If you know the entire Psalm by heart, your task will be to actually say all the verses s-l-o-w-l-y.  Why?Because, many times we rush through the words without realizing that we are rushing through our own healing.
Here’s the idea:

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want.“

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: “He Maketh me to lie down in green pastures.”

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: “He Leadeth me beside the still waters.”

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: “He Restores my soul...”

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "He Leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name sake." 

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil;" 

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "For Thou Art with me;"

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "Thy Rod and Thy Staff they Comfort me." 

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "Thou Preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;"

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "Thou Anointest my head with oil."

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "My cup runneth over." 

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "Surely Goodness and Mercy shall follow me all the days of my life;"

Inhale deeply (hold), exhale: "And, I shall dwell in the House of the Lord forever."

This is how I begin my prayer time. Take your time. It will calm your spirit and allow you to focus on the Promises of God for your  life. Consider repeating the entire 23 Psalm until you truly feel it.  -It will replenish you.  L.

When It Is Not Yours

​"And command thou the people, saying, Ye are to pass the coast of your brethren the children of Esau, which dwell in Seir; and they shall be afraid of you; take ye good heed unto yourselves therefore; meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot-breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession. Ye shall buy meat of them for money, that ye may eat; and ye shall also buy water of them for money, that ye may drink. For the Lord thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand; He knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness; these forty years the Lord thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.” 
Deuteronomy 2:4-7 

 
It is interesting to note that during the 40 years that Israel walked in the wilderness, they lack nothing; God took care of their every need.  Furthermore, by the time they found themselves leaving the wilderness and going towards the Promised Land, God would instruct them not to “meddle” with certain people they found along the way.   Since, the people whose land that they would pass through had already received a previous promise from Him.  In this case, the land the Israelites would pass through had already been given to the descendants of Esau and Lot; men who were highly favored by God through their own stories. 

There are going to be times when there are things, people, or opportunities you desire, pray for, or simply want that have already been promised to someone else.  And, in order to receive it, you will have to pay for it, sometimes dearly —simply because it is not yours for the taking, and will not come freely. There will  be a cost extracted from you for the provisions you will need.  However, isn't it wonderful to know that once you have been given the promise of a blessing to come, God will not allow anyone or anything to take it from you, except maybe your own arrogance and ego.

Hasn't it happened to you where you worked on a task, a job, or had an opportunity where it seemed the heavens opened for you?  Everything you touched flourished easily and flawlessly; it was simply yours for the taking.  Your ears were fine-tuned to God, and your steps seemed custom-ordered for you. You listened intently. Then, because of your ego, arrogance, or lack of obedience, the next tiny issue, something that should have been simple, turned into a major dilemma and somehow you had to pay for it dearly. 

Take the time today to pray for a sense of discernment; the ability to know the difference between what is for you from God, and what is not.   This way you don’t waste time confusing the two; trying desperately to take the things that are not for you, paying dearly; and, ignoring the things that really are for you and not seizing the opportunity.   L.

Your Thoughts: Healing

   "O  Lord, my God, I cried unto Thee and Thou hast healed me.”  Psalm 30:2 


If you have been reading along for any length of time you probably know how I feel about words –seeds.  Words, like seeds, can dig deeply and take root.  They are so powerful they can change the way you think, act, and feel.  There are promises in the Bible precisely for those who are ailing; verses that we should use as meditations and mantras to foster healing within our bodies.  These biblical verses, coupled with forgiveness for those who have hurt you, can be powerful healers. Forgiveness is key, that’s why Jesus placed it in The Lord’s Prayer. It fosters healing in our mind, body, and spirit; and, without it, it inhibits the Spirit of God from fully working at optimum capacity in your life.

There are people who are going through some serious ailments, heartache, or pain reading this.  If it is not you, then it is someone you know. So, there are verses you should be reading, meditating, and muttering as frequently as possible that will aid your healing.  Today’s verse is just one of them; however, here are a few more.

“But He was wounded for [my] transgressions; He was bruised for [my] iniquities: the chastisement of [my] peace was upon Him; and with His stripes [I am]  healed.”  Isaiah 53:5

“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for Thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:14

“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all [my] iniquities; Who heals all [my] diseases; Who redeems [my] life from destruction; Who crowns [me] with Loving-kindness and tender mercies; Who satisfies [my] mouth with good things; so that [my] youth is renewed like the eagle's.”  Psalm 103:2-5
 
These are just a few Bible verses for you to use as positive biblical affirmations to declare that you stand on the promise of God to heal you.  So go ahead, cry out, plead, or simply ask; because, as a Believer, healing is a promise that was created just for you from the foundation of the world.  L.

*Now it is your turn to write your thoughts in your journal on today's topic.

To Thine Own Self Be True

​“Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.” 
Proverbs 27:2



Have you ever overheard someone complimenting you without the knowledge that you were nearby or within earshot?  Do you remember how you felt? Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington tells a wonderful story of coming home one day, after auditioning for yet another acting job, just in time to overhear his wife and her friend talking about him. The conversation was so intense that neither of them heard when he entered the apartment. In the conversation, his wife Paulette, a former actress, tries to convince her friend of just how talented an actor her husband is; yet, the friend, not really listening, insists instead that he needs to give up his “dream” of becoming an actor "and find a "real" job."

So, after eavesdropping on the conversation and listening to his wife defend his dream, he quietly eased back through the front door and re-entered the apartment, this time, announcing himself. The women immediately changed the topic of their conversation. Paulette's faith in him restored his decision to push the dream even further. One week later he received his pivotal role in,  A Soldiers Play, at the renowned Negro Ensemble Company Theater. The play would later be made into the feature film, A Soldier Story, launching what has become an Oscar-winning career.

Promoting yourself, boasting of your talents and gifts is truly irrelevant; for the most part, most people will not believe you anyway. Fame and notoriety are so fickle that, today people love you, and tomorrow they don't. We know this was true even in the life of Jesus Christ. Less than one week—only a few days before the Sanhedrin called out to have Jesus crucified, He had been exalted, hailed at the gates of Jerusalem with shouts of “Hosanna in the Highest.” 

It is more honest to stay true to whom you are, using your talent and gifts as if you were using them for God Himself, with the knowledge that God is never fickle; He does not waiver with the whims of the day. Use your talents and gifts without the desire for self-promotion, because the truth is, if you are excellent, using your talents exceedingly well, everyone will notice!  L.

An Uncommon Blessing

4/16/2020

 "And his servant came near, and spoke unto him, and said, “My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, would thou not have done it? How much rather then, when he saith to thee, “Wash and be clean?”  Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God; and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean."     2 Kings 5:13-14 

 
There are times when we are certain our blessings will emerge from a source we recognize, ignoring those things or people sent in our path, by God, to redirect our focus.  Sometimes it can be a perfect stranger, a circumstance, or an event, which dramatically impacts a major decision.  Our task is to maintain such a strong connection to God that, when it shows up, it will be easily discernible from the other things or people in our lives.  

Today's verse, found in 2 Kings, is the fulfillment of a blessing from God through the Prophet Elisha.  Naaman was a beloved Captain of the Syrian Army whom, although beloved and revered by the King of Syria for his valor, was stricken with the disease leprosy.

It is interesting to note how Naaman learned of the Prophet Elisha's gift of healing others. The short version is, the Syrians battled with Israel, and as the victors, they kept those who were captured in battle as servants.  One of the captives, a young Hebrew girl, was given to Naaman's wife as a servant. One day the maiden told her mistress that she knew of a Prophet in Samaria who could heal Naaman of his leprosy. Hearing this from his wife, Naaman goes to the King of Syria for an introductory letter to the King of Samaria, requesting a meeting with the Prophet Elisha. When he arrives in Samaria, Naaman is instructed by Elisha to dip in the Jordan River seven times to heal himself, but like us, his arrogance and ego almost prevents him from receiving God's blessing. 

Although the healing was miraculous, today let's consider the circumstances that led to the healing—the truly miraculous part.  First, we have to assume that Naaman treated all the servants in his household quite well, since, the Hebrew servant girl felt inclined to offer help to her new captor.  Secondly, Naaman's own personal servant had no fear in recommending to his master that he follow Elisha's instructions precisely. And lastly, because of the sincere urgings of his personal servant, Naaman reconsiders his own arrogance and follows Elisha's instructions precisely, submerging himself into the Jordan River exactly seven times.  When he finally emerged after the seventh dip, he was completely healed. 

Today, we may or may not have servants; however, consider this. How do you treat those whom you consider      beneath you?  What about those employees on your job who are your subordinates?  What about those you consider less fashionable, less educated, younger, unattractive, or of a lower income group?  Had Naaman not respected or listened to the urgings offered by both his servants, he would not have experienced the healing prepared for him by God. 

How we treat those whom we command, or those who serve us, can be the difference between receiving a blessing or not.  So remember, the most wondrous thing about receiving a blessing from God is, we never know through whom the blessing will manifest.  We simply cannot predict who will be chosen to fulfill God's blessings in our life. Furthermore, we have no idea when, where, or how our blessings will take form.  It is thoroughly uncanny; it can come from anyone, anywhere, at any time.  We only need to be prepared for it by faith, and to accept it graciously and with gratitude when it occurs.  L.

The Friendship Connection

4/15/2020

“Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.”    Proverbs 27:17


My mother once said to me, "You love your friends more than you do your family!"  Of course, I said, "No, that's ridiculous!"

Then one day, I actually thought about what she said, and thought to myself, "Hmmm... She just may be right!”  Haven't you ever thought to yourself, "God, what were you thinking when you hooked me up with these crazy people!  -Are you sure they're connected to me by blood? They're all nuts!  –Am I the only sane one in this family?” 

The truth is, our friends were hand-picked for the traits we have in common, our ethics, ideals, and how we complement each other. We love being with them. On the other hand, our family was divinely designed by God to sometimes thoroughly work our last already shredded nerve! There are times when we simply want to throw up our hands and just walk away.  –But of course, they'll know exactly where to find us!  

Did you know that when God arranged the birth order in your family, He also predetermined a group of very specific traits for you to use based on your birth order?  First-born children tend to be natural leaders within their families, and tend to be the natural go-to person when there is a family problem; their ethics and standards are usually the closest to the standards instilled by your parents. Middle children are natural mediators; they can easily toggle between two colliding groups to find common ground.  And, of course, the babies in the family are natural born entertainers, easily and dramatically pulling the entire family together around them.   

At first, when we select our friendships, we naturally gravitate towards the complement we are looking for based on what we believe we are lacking. The first connection is visual, then, it gets deeper. We've all seen them; those friends who complement each other, the tall skinny kid with the short chubby kid; the extremely dark-skinned child with the very light-skinned child; an extremely studious kid with the class clown, and the extroverted with the shy. 

As we get older and establish deeper friendships, we seek out those whose values, core beliefs, and ethics somehow complement our own. God is truly wonderful!  He took the time to set up our lives so that we would easily gravitate towards friends who complement and empower us.  Sometimes we take our friends for granted, knowing that they will be there when and if we need them, never quite remembering that, they might just need us!  
Today, thank God for establishing your friendships; and then, take some time to thank those who you consider friends.  L.

Processing The Painful

4/14/2020

"Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain you...”     Psalm 55:22 

​
Although most of us prefer not to admit it, there is a purpose for the pain we go through.

Consider the pain a caterpillar must experience during its transition in becoming a beautiful butterfly.  As a caterpillar, it crawls the earth searching for food, using its many legs to climb the height of trees.  In order to go through its transformation, it must endure a deep incubation period wrapped in a tight cocoon, unable to move to the right or left, up or down.  It is almost a direct metaphor for the way most of us feel when we are going through personal strife. —Stuck, confined, nowhere to turn.  In order to experience flight, and life as a butterfly, it must wait for the cocoon to harden; and then, it must physically fight its way out. This process is not immediate—it takes time.  More importantly, it cannot be rushed. If the butterfly cannot meet the struggle to make it out of the cocoon, it dies, and the cocoon becomes a coffin.

Although we believe our strife is completely unwarranted, and we commonly find ourselves asking God to remove our pain, problem, or adversity, the process of strife is necessary to aid us in becoming closer to God. Why?  Because most of the time when things are going wonderfully, we forget about our relationship with God.  When things are stressful and hardships are present, we remember to find solace in communicating with God.  Similar to the caterpillar during its restriction in the cocoon, God forces us to concentrate not on the exterior elements of our life, but the inner transformation necessary to experience a transition.  This type of transition takes us from a superficial relationship with God, to a deeper level of understanding what it truly means to receive sustenance from Him.

Jesus, while in deep communal prayer with God in the Garden of Gethsemane, asked God three times to “remove this cup” from Him. Yet, He also said, “Not as I will, but as Thou will.” (Mark 14:36)   This statement is the key invocation added to our prayers that will help us as we pray for ourselves while going through our own adversity. 

Chances are, like Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, the pain during your level of adversity will not go away. However, God will give you the strength to actually move through it.   And, like the butterfly struggling through the process of emerging from its cocoon, you will emerge transformed and much stronger from the process, with the ability to clearly see the world from a completely different perspective and a much higher vantage point.   L.

Holding Your Peace

"The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.”  
Exodus 14:14


​
As I left work enjoying the first warm spring day of the year, I noticed some words written on the sidewalk in white chalk. I walked closer to read, what turned out to be a very profound phrase,  “Don’t allow anger to destroy your peace!"  The quote, signed by a neighborhood artist named, De la Vega, resounded in my mind and immediately uplifted my spirit.  

It appears that I have become a fan of De la Vega since reading, on previous occasions, several other sidewalk renderings penned in the temporary stain of white chalk. One of my favorites was a series of white chalk animations of a lone fish, dreaming of leaving a small fish bowl. The first image featured the fish swimming in a classic round fishbowl; the second, showed the fish jumping out of the bowl and unto the sidewalk, happily walking on newly found legs. The caption read, “Become your dream!”  

The most recent sidewalk rendering, again written with the simplicity of white chalk, simply stated, “Praying confronts God.”  Although I didn't quite agree with the statement, I easily understood the thought behind the words. There are times when praying confronts God; however, the confrontation is always tempered by our understanding that, at the appointed time, we will understand the reason behind God's process. 

I am not certain what issues prompted De la Vega to begin promoting his or her art on the sidewalks of New York City. -A place where people tread so easily without paying much attention. Maybe it was just to offer pause and pleasure to weary pedestrians, in a city where speedily walking to and from one’s destination is the norm. However, pausing to read the words, I felt inclined to silently thank him or her for the gift of gently reminding us, never to allow anger the power to steal our peace. -Peace that we so often and easily relinquish to any errant passerby who crosses our path.  

Remember, the power of bestowing and maintaining personal peace belongs only to God. When you relinquish your personal peace to someone else, they become your god. -Since, ultimately, you worship them enough to offer the sacrifice of God’s peace in your life, in return for their turmoil.  

Peace in your life is the highest level of living; it is, in essence, a complete lack of conflict mentally, physically, and spiritually.  It allows your spirit’s communal connection to God to flow effortlessly.  On more than one occasion Jesus said it very clearly to the people in His midst, “Peace be unto you.”  -So, as De La Vega so aptly put it; “Don’t allow anger to destroy your peace.”  L.

"Whom Do You Say I AM?"

4/12/2020

“When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Whom do men say that I, The Son of Man Am?” And they said, “Some say that Thou art John the Baptist; some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.”  He saith unto them, “But whom say ye that I Am?”  And Simon Peter answered and said, “Thou art The Christ, The Son of the Living God.”  And Jesus answered and said unto him, “Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona; for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but My Father which is in Heaven.” "    Matthew 16:13-17



In today’s passage, Jesus asks His disciples to identify who He is, by asking them, “...But, whom do YOU say I Am?”  Although they respond, only Peter correctly identifies Him as, The Christ.  And recently, one of my online readers pointed out how difficult it is for some people to readily see the Glory of God within their midst.  Yet, the Bible teaches us several names for Jesus that are specifically designed so that we can see Him in our midst.   In fact, His Names are so tailored to us that, many times we can correlate His Name to our own individual need, profession, or circumstance.  So, if for some reason you cannot see His Power superseding in your individual circumstances, maybe the list below will give you the opportunity to do so. The question for YOU today is simple; what would your response be if Jesus asked you, “...But, Whom do YOU say I Am?” 
 
For the Astronomers /Physicists-            -He is the Bright & Morning Star
For the Architects/Builders-                     -He is the Cornerstone
For the Gardeners-                                      -He is the Rose of Sharon
For the Florists-                                            -He is the Lily of the Valley
For the Zoologists/ Veterinarians-          -He is the Lion of Judah
For the Physicians/ Healers-                     -He is the Balm of Gilead
For the Peacemakers-                                 -He is the Lamb of God
For the Soldiers-                                           -He is the Prince of Peace
For the Clergy-                                              -He is the High Priest
For the Writers-                                            -He is the Word
For the Electricians-                                     -He is the Light of the World
For the Scientists/Mathematicians-         -He is the Alpha and Omega
For the Jury/ Judge/Lawyer                        -He is the Truth
For the Pathfinders /Engineers-                -He is the Way
For the Dying-                                                -He is the Life
For the Childless-                                          -He is the Son of Man
For the Hopeless-                                          -He is the Son of God
For the Competitors-                                    -He is the Glory of God
For the Advisors-                                           -He is the Wonderful Counselor
For the Fatherless-                                         -He is the Everlasting Father
For the Morticians-                                        -He is the Resurrection & the Life
For the Geologists-                                         -He is the Rock
For the Brokenhearted-                                -He is the Beloved
For the Teachers-                                           -He is the Head Master
For the Single-                                                 -He is the Bridegroom
For the Troubled-                                           -He is the Angel of the Lord
For the Jew-                                                      -He is the Root of David
For the Thirsty-                                               -He is the Living Water
For the Fearful-                                               -He is the Captain of the Host
For the Captive-                                              -He is the Redeemer
For the Religious-                                           -He is the Lord of Lords
For the Sovereign/ Head-of-State              -He is the King of Kings
For the Lost-                                                    -He is Savior
 And, most of all, For Humanity-                 -He is Love.
 
Our relationship with Jesus is so intimate that, there is nothing He cannot understand in reference to our daily life.
–Nothing! It does not matter if it is work related, relationship centered, problematic, or matters of the heart; all you have to remember is that, whatever it is, He has already Mastered it!  L.

Strange Occurrences

4/11/2020

​"Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened
unto you”   
1 Peter 4:12
 

Have you been trying to figure out why so many trials keep coming your way; fiery trials with tribulations so severe you wonder whether you and Job are kinsmen? You look around and see so many people prospering who are sworn enemies of God; people who have no reference of the Gospel; and, those who have consciously decided that, not only do they not believe in God, but that God does not exist. 

You go to work, and work harder than most, but somehow your job is the one in jeopardy. Your money is short every month, and your bills are high; your family is crazy or almost there; and your love life is on the lam or on the rocks.  Meanwhile, you are purposely keeping the faith, reading your Bible, and praying until your knees are black and blue. You wonder to yourself if you are doing something wrong. 

No one ever told you that when you became a Christian life was going to be so difficult.  Had you known, maybe you would have made a different decision. Those Christians you met early on were so happy for you when you decided to allow Jesus into your life, it never occurred to you to ask questions.  So, you were baptized and happily changed your lifestyle. Were they fooling you? Now, it is just one thing after another; and, you feel like running away and not looking back. Before, it was easier to do your own thing without any remorse, without any anxieties about insulting God.  Sounds familiar?   

Imagine for a moment being one of the first Christians after the resurrection of Jesus. Not an Apostle, but a believer who converted simply because he or she believed. Imagine their persistent determination under the constant threat of the Sanhedrin and other early persecutors. Consider their bravery in the face of daily persecution, opposition, and threats. Yet, they still believed.  At least today, no matter what you are going through, you have a powerful brotherhood/ sisterhood whom you can openly go to for replenishment in the face of adversity.  

Today’s verse refers to the fiery trials; the trials we go through to build our resolve. —Concentrated trials used to determine what kind of Christians we are going to be.  —The kind who runs at the first sign of trouble, or the one that stands up for righteousness for His name sake? —The kind who reverts to old habits or the one that holds fast to faith, understanding that Jesus will never forsake those who love Him?  

The fiery trials will come, it is up to you whether it destroys you or empowers you; propels you to cast your Bible down, or prompts you to hold your Bible high.  It is not easy being a Christian, but Beloved, it never was.  L.

Returning, Just For One

 "…Except I shall see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into His side, I will not believe.”      John 20:25 


When Jesus appeared to the ten Apostles in John 20:19, we can only imagine their natural exuberance and overwhelming joy when they actually "see" that their Messiah had truly risen from the dead. The Apostles later recount Jesus’ visit to Didymus Thomas who was not present when Jesus appeared, telling him that Jesus has indeed risen from the dead. However, Thomas does not believe them; in fact, he says the passage above, recorded in John 20:25, earning him the 2000 year old nickname “Doubting Thomas.”

Have you ever spoken to someone about something extraordinary that you have seen and they did not believe you? Maybe it was a story of how God provided for you in a time of need; and yet, they simply did not believe.  It is a little frustrating, because as an eyewitness and credible friend you simply expect for them to believe what you are telling them. Thomas, like most of us, does not really believe in the omnipotent power of Jesus Christ, until he experiences it for himself. He had to see it, to believe it!  Yet, his response still seems a little bizarre coming from someone who had been an eyewitness to countless miracles, including seeing Jesus raise others from the dead. 

After the Apostles told Thomas of their experience, we can imagine he may have wanted to believe, yet, in his heart he wanted proof. After all, why would Jesus show Himself to all the others and not to him! -He needed proof! So, eight days later, after Jesus had ascended to His Father, He reappears to the Apostles once again; this time, Didymus Thomas is with them. The part I find absolutely fascinating is—Jesus came back for one person!  He came back so that Thomas would have all the proof he needed to satisfy his belief. Jesus did not have to reappear to convince one disciple, but He did! 

How do we know He came back just for Thomas? Because, when He first appeared to the Apostles He could not be touched; He says to Mary Magdalene in John 20:17 “…Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father….”  When He showed Himself the second time to the Apostles, He could physically be touched!  Thomas could physically touch the holes in His hands and the holes in His pierced torso.  And, just to be clear, Jesus says to him,

“Reach hither thy finger, and behold My hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into My side: and be not faithless, but believing.”  (John 20:27)

Jesus literally responds using the same words that Thomas used in his refusal to accept Jesus’ first appearance!
So, no matter what you may be going through, if you need an answer to something that may hinder your belief, know that Jesus will move heaven and earth to answer even one person—​You!   L.
