At the beginning and end of the day, you resolve to make up in your mind that, for God I live and for God I'll die must hold fast. This world is openly expressing its disdain for all things Holy and of God. It apologizes to no one and expects to be forgiven unapologetically for it's intentionally destructive behavior. Now, don't get the wrong idea. Mat. 7:1-3,"1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Knowing this, we can implement salvation into the equation and reference Christ's blood shed covering all sins for the believer. Yes, which is wherein the crux of our dilemma viewing/discussing the plight of this world. Let us be busy living for God, fighting the good fight, and demonstrating His love. Having no fear in us, being made perfect in His love, let us extend hope of a better way of doing things. Let the church (body of believers) show off Christ. Lift Him up and let Him do the drawing. In our daily living, let's make a conscious effort to show this world real people, living real lives, serving a living God. We're not perfect but we know who is and He's perfecting us.

So, another week has come to a close and another begins as we enter the full frenzy of this holiday season of ... You fill in the blank.


"... and yet, another seed is planted."

Stuff, stuff, and more stuff. Our daily grind coupled with our internal struggles have seemingly culminated into an amalgamation of superfluous living void of tangible results linked to purpose. Are you on track? Can you fruit from your labor. Yes, granted, you are a Child of The Most High God but would He be pleased with your progress if He was asked? Again, are you on track or could you be doing more? A child, loved by our congregation, recently passed and came as a shock to us all. I had to ask myself these questions. I understand the fact that as believers this is not our home. We are aliens to this earth and destined to live in Heaven. As pilgrims on this journey, we build The Kingdom of Heaven here on earth but it almost appears as though we've begun walking around as if we've got forever to do His will while aware here. I take my hat off to my Pastor who is an example of what I'm speaking of. No one I know runs harder for The Lord, leaving no stone unturned and every

Myself and a colleague of mine briefly discussed, love. That undoubtedly sounds incredible silly as love saved of us from eternal damnation. My comment rests solely on the fact that we were only passing each other in the hallway, thus affording us only a brief opportunity for conversation. Her response to a statement I'd made is what really started the whole thing. At some point, I had said that love never fails, which prompted her to immediately come back with, "yes it does". She then went on to justify her response in light of the fact that a professor at an institution of higher learning gave her a failing grade on a paper she'd written, attempting to prove that love never fails. Well, all it took was a failing grade to sway her belief but what about the Saints? This is where I stood ground and quickly asked her what the teachers point of reference was. A look of amusement scrolled across her face as she realized where I was going with the discussion. Yes, given Ch

i was told that my vision could not be founded on the hopes of money.the same source said that mentors are a must have too.the question isn't about wealth building but where your heart is.the word of Christ stipulates that the love of money is the root of all evil.many misconstrue the verse as an interpretation defining money as evil in and of itself but that is false.money is nothing but a tool.it has no value by itself but when put to proper use...,no one complains. Jesus is not opposed to us having things or wealth for that matter but he doesn't want us to desire or overextend ourselves to obtain it.seek ye first the kingdom of heaven.meditating on gods word day and night is a direct link to not just just success but good success .god has a system and it has rules and guidelines .follow his plan for your life and run parallel to those guidelines or better yet,in the same vein.he loves us and showed us by sacrificing his son Jesus for us. don't know many of us that
