RESCUE!

You never know who may rescue you from the fowler's snare, or the hunters' net. But, if you are rescued , at least say "thanks!"

HOLY SPIRIT POWER

I once preached a sermon titled "the slippery slope to salvation," in an AME church in Boonville, Missouri. To my surprise, the town's white chief of police joined church that day ! The Holy Spirit is able to deliver anyone!

I THANK YOU, BILL COSBY!

FARM BABY REFLECTIONS

FARM BABY REFLECTIONS I don't remember much from my grandparents' farm as a small boy. I do remember sweet sugar cane, however, and the watermelon and cotton. I remember riding upon the back of a mule that was hitched to a cane mill-grinder, that ground the cane into a green liquid as the mule circled . Someone lifted me upon it. I do remember the sound of a long green watermelon splitting open, when it was sliced. It sounded like a log being split apart and the smell was was divine; its meat delicious! I also remember cotton, billowing fields of cotton and riding atop the wagon high atop the cotton regally. Such memories, remembrances endue, endear, endow me to land. 

MERENPTAH & ISRAEL

"'Libya lies destroyed, the country of Hittites is pacified, Canaan is captive with all its wicked ones, Ascalon is conquered, Geser is taken, Yeonom is reduced to nothing, Israel is devastated, emptied of its seed, Syria has become a widow for Egypt.' "'Excerpt from a "by Victory Hymn of Merenptah." "The thirteenth son and successor to Ramses II, Merenptah, ("Beloved of Ptah"), reigned from 1224-1214 BC. In the fifth year of his reign, a force of Libyans (Meshouesh), and so-called "Sea People" (Shardanes, Lukas, Turshas, Shekelesh, and others), supported by Philistines and Danunas launched a joint attack against Egypt. They suffered a swift and crushing defeat in the Delta. The name of Israel appears just once in Egyptian texts, namely on the triumphal stele of Merenptah, erected to celebrate this victory during the fifth year of his reign: 'Israel is devastated; her seed is no more.' (Line 27 of the stele)" P. 521-522, AFRICAN PHILOSOPHY : THE PHARAONIC PERIOD 2780-330 BC by Theophile Obenga (2004)

LOVING AND LEARNING

Learning to love cannot be limited to any one subject matter. It is an energy that combines spiritual and material, which defies proscription. The same is true of loving to learn . Learning and loving restores much.
