Write It Live It
Transformation Thursday... Write your obituary, and find a way to live up to it.
-- What will your legacy be? Will you leave this life without having true friends, family, and mentees; without serving the least among us and not expecting anything return; or without having of righteous purpose that is greater than yourself?
Write it and live it.
Way of the Faithful
The way of the faithful is committing to pay the price, even if the cost is painful or unknownable and then trusting that the price will be worth it in the end.
So, today's MindsetShift is "Come what may"
Until we accept the cure for human nature, we will continue to see hate, fear, and confusion disrupt our lives and our world.
#AcceptTheCure #ChristTheCure
They say that the blood of tyrants and patriots are needed to refresh the Tree of Liberty, but we now know that liberty needs stones of hope to anchor its roots and lives of peacemakers to make it bloom. Happy MLK Day!

If your hope and dreams, worth and happiness, and present and future depend on the outcome of next Tuesday's election, there is still time to anchor your joy and peace in the eternal bedrock, not a temporal sand.

Voices of the marginalized cannot yell any louder than the volume of your conscience. Leaders, it is time to tune in with the treble of intentions and the bass of character.

Prayer for the week ==> Recognize hypocrisy in us using God's word for wordly validation and for establishing sides that divides His people. There is only side, and that is His will.
What we do right now will echo for generations. Either we decide to breathe life into our fellow man or not. I use "we" because each of has this choice. It is not just a matter of training on ethics or diversity. It is simply a matter of the heart. An empty heart can only echo within its hollow chambers, where no one else can hear it. If a heart is filled with "life", it can reverberate for generations. Let us decide right now...

Today, remember that our Lord Jesus took COVID-19 to the cross too and left it in that tomb with the rest of death.
Lessons for Corona
#1. Harvest-to-Table -- Use a portion of your income, tax rebate, or "corona" check; partner with a local farmer to buy seed, fertilizer, fuel, lease, grain, etc; share in the harvest to your table (potatoes, corn, beef, milk, eggs, etc). OR be the farmer.

Lessons in handling the CORONA virus
C-Cancel your fear, for God is not the author of fear and confusion
O-Order "self" to quarantine, for we cannot love the world and God at the same time
R-Redirect toward cross, for it is both a eternal vaccine and eternal sanitizer to clean hands, feet, and life
O-Own your full armor of God, for it it the only protection in the shadow of this viral world
N-Neutralize the threat with a "yes" to the Christ, for tomorrow is not promised
A-Answer the call (with time, treasure, and talents), for others will surely be in need

#OurNextLine
This line not just writes of Black history but of American history. Some may want to ignore, dismiss, or just erase it. Perhaps, the reason is pride, hate, shame, or indifference. Regardless of the reason, there is eternal faith, strength, and hope in this line. This line has descendents of a mighty people who suffered, endured, and survived vicious cycles of manifest destiny (ie deemed savages, sub-human, beggar, menace, 2nd class, radical, lost, and ingrate). However, that poetry is still being written. I am in a line in that poem and hope to finish with a stanza. So are you. So is all of America. The question is what is our next line?
#BlackHistory
Is my mother, Sarah, MLK-like? She too had a dream, deeply rooted in the American dream. It started in this one room, 125+ year-old school house in 1945, where she attended school with all the other plantation children until 8th grade. She had dreams of leaving the plantation, going to California, and becoming a movie star (I had no idea until this morning). She never became a movie star. In fact, she never left the plantation until 1973. However, as she posed for her granddaughter, she seemingly had that same smile, same hope, and same light that had in 1945. How is that possible? The answer is simple... faith. This is the "faith" that Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr shared that he would "go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope." That stone of hope that was hewed out of the mountain over 2,000+ years ago was Christ, Our Lord, as He defeated death. With this same faith, she too has worked together, prayed together, struggled together,...with many, many people, knowing that that there is always hope. She never marched with MLK, never met MLK, or never spoke like MLK. However, she has been a drum major for peace, she has tried to love somebody at every corner, and she achored on the same "stone of hope" that is Jesus Christ. Is she MLK-like? Asked in a better way, is my mother, Sarah, trying to be Christ-like? Maybe the best question is are we?
Where are we today when evil...
...places our future in its sights?
...silences the voice of hope?
...scatters us back to self or our own kind?
...distracts us with latest side show?
...displaces love with lies, loyalty, and likes?
We are we today? #MLK
Do for the Least
If we find ourselves more fortunate in 2020, let us do for the "least of these" by building longer tables instead building higher fences.
#DoForTheLeast #TableBuilder
Two years ago this time, I had an unbelievable, unexpected, immeasurable Joseph moment. Yesterday, I had another. The Lord is faithful and can trusted! I am grateful for moments but am more grateful for His Word (instructions) that endure me and encouraged me before, between, and after the "Joseph" moments.
No matter what, we just have to believe, even if it His will for us to keep the thorn or stay in the pit, in slavery, or in prisoned.
