The Children's Bread

Matthew 15:26 Jesus responded, "It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to dogs."  I have a confession to make you guys. I like bread. Scratch that, I LOVE BREAD!  Matter of fact, I'm addicted to bread. Bread is life! Bread gives me life!  One of the main reasons I like dining in some restaurants is because they give you bread before your meals.  There was this restaurant I went to a few times some odd years back called Heaven on Seven. A schnazzy joint located in downtown Chicago attached to an AMC theater, with New Orleans vibes and a menu with attributed southern delicacies. T his place is where they would actually put honey in their butter and bring it out to you with slices of warm baguettes. When I tell you the spirit of the Lord would come upon me every time I visited that place! Look here! That little combination blessed my soul.  Because, I love bread!  Circa 2009 out with some good people celebrating a fr...

Waiting to Exhale

Isaiah 54:4 Fear not, for you shall not be ashamed; neither be confounded and depressed, for you shall not be put to shame. For you shall forget the shame of your youth, and you shall not [seriously] remember the reproach of your widowhood any more. Happy Wednesday gang! I pray your weekend was bombtastic and your week is treating you well. On the flipside, if you happen to be reading this and have been affected in someway by our current government shutdown know that I'm sincerely praying for your covering and protection. Don't allow fear and panic to cause you to look at the storm. Keep your eyes on Jesus and block out the rude insensitive comments of people who are too prideful to be empathetic.  Because I myself experienced being completely unemployed for a little over two years, I somewhat know what it's like to feel as if you're drowning and there is no hint of help coming.  I tell you this, though some days I was depressed as all homemade hell, if I didn...

7even

Proverbs 24:16 "...for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again,     but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes." Happy third week of the year beautiful people! I've seen some amaaazing things pop off for a few people in my connections so far and I couldn't be more geeked for them!  Especially for those whom I've witnessed their toil and watched them sow in tears.  I t's a dope thing to see people reap from their hard work. It's been fairly quiet for me for the most part, minus some occasional warfare. But none of that is going to deter me from enjoying the beauty in my wait. If it's been quiet or rocky for you, listen we still have 349 days to see some natural fruits of our faithfulness.  In the meantime in between time, stay encouraged and continue to stick to the directives that's been laid out before you for this year. And know that natural fruit is great but spiritual fruit is better.  Wait-time cultivate...

Thou Art the Man!

James 1:22-23 Be doers of the word, and not hearers only. Otherwise, you are deceiving yourselves. For anyone who hears the word but does not carry it out is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror, and after observing himself goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like... Well, hi there! I'm pleased you made your way back here. I've already hit the ground running. If you didn't read my first post of the year Planks ,  I encourage you to read it.  I don't want to lose you.  I don't plan to offend you as much as I did last post, but I'm still in the vein.  Consider this my unapologetic reminder.  Ha! So I left off pretty much exposing the X-ray image of the church and its compromised composition. I must make it clear as it pertains to part of my stance from last week; that rebellion is rebellion. No matter how you flip the coin. You can flip it, smack it, rub it down, with all of your cuteness, it's still going to be rebellio...

Plank

Matthew 7:3-5  Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. HAPPY NEW YEAR BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!!!!! Isn't it a great day to be alive? I pray that you are as excited about this new year as I am!  If not, find a reason or make a reason.  Look, whatever you do, GET EXCITED!  But did you guys miss meeeeee? I missed you guys. Like by this >_< much. Ha! Them four weeks went by so dang on fast! I contemplated not c oming back to certain pages! I don't know, something about the absence of certain social webs just seem to make life less complicated. I had to re-download like 4 different apps to get reconnected and they are draining the he...
