There are mass shootings, instability, war, and conflicts all over the world because of selfishness, greed, hate, and fear. Then there are the horrific fates often met by people fleeing these atrocities. And then there is this beautiful Super Flower Blood Moon that I watched with my youngest son last night. The timing in the... Continue Reading →
Sight for the blind guides
Christ called the Pharisees blind guides because they esteemed the gold in the temple above the temple itself, not understanding that it is the temple which sanctified the gold. This level of blindness is still present today among those who call themselves guides today. Christians are called to be moral guides today however they suffer... Continue Reading →
Resurrection For Reconciliation
In order for us to be reconciled to GOD, the differences between us and GOD have to be removed. YAHWEH is already perfect, so we are the ones who need to change. In fact, we need an infusion of His essence so that we can even begin to understand Him. The carnal man by nature... Continue Reading →
Easter Monday, Part 2
The resurrection of Christ introduces the dawn of a new day for man. Christ is called the “last” Adam by the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Corinthians. This reference as the last Adam signifies the genesis of a new order of man, distinctly different from the first Adam. Whenever we ascribe the characteristics... Continue Reading →
Trust Is the Stamina of Love
The rarest and most precious element in the world is and has always been trust. When Satan stole trust in the garden of Eden, he knew that he had made it nearly impossible for mankind to have fruitful and fulfilling relationships. The world instantly became a poorer place.

Though I do not know what all the New Year holds, I... Continue Reading →
For A Straight Line to Better Days Submit to GOD As Your Ruler
There have been times when I greeted people in the morning and they replied, “Same crap, different day.” Maybe you have gotten that response before or a more crude variant, but the sentiment is the same. That expression relays a certain futility with life in which a person is stuck in a loop that presents... Continue Reading →
Illuminating Knowledge from Soul Food
I recently completed watching a Netflix documentary called, “High on the Hog.” I found it to be sneakily illuminating. You are watching this discussion around the origins of dietary tradition, and you find yourself being educated in the soil which produced the foods. The soil is the souls of Black folk. This soil is rich... Continue Reading →
Don’t Let Anyone Keep You from Reaching GOD
People, especially men, feel that they must always have an answer, and if they can’t figure it out, they’ll often make up an answer or say no one really knows. There would be far less false teachings in the world if people would just admit they do not know. Instead, they speak from presumption and... Continue Reading →
Hope Is the Wick on the Candle of Godly Desire
Hope is defined as desire accompanied by an expectation of, or belief in, fulfillment (Merriam-Webster). When hope is lost, this is the evidence that the thing desired is now thought of as being beyond reach or unobtainable. When hope is lost, as not to torment the soul, one sends their emotions away from the thing... Continue Reading →
