TRUE LOVE        

One night in March 2007, I was awakened at about 2:00 a.m. to hear a song for the first time.  I found out later the song, “Love Is a Cross”, by Russ Lee, was a very popular song. As I lay there that morning, I immediately started thinking of bible verses and arranging them in [...]

Wisdom – Priceless!

Proverbs 8:1-11 reads, “Listen as Wisdom calls out!  Hear as understanding raises her voice!  On the hilltop along the road, she takes her stand at the crossroads.  By the gates at the entrance to the town, on the road leading in, she cries aloud, “I call to you, to all of you!  I raise my [...]

Feeling Abandoned? Not By God, Not Ever!

Do you ever feel like Jesus goes on a stroll and leaves us behind even when we need Him most?  Whether to be alone in prayer to the Father while we feel neglected; falls asleep on the boat when it’s surely a rough ride for the rest of us; abandons us just when we or [...]

I Know My Redeemer Lives

I read through the bible cover to cover almost every year.  I am amazed at the wonderful collection contains.  And I’ve always been fascinated by the book of Job.  Job, a pious man, was willing to endure suffering, and rather than curse God, he cursed the day he was born.  Job 3:1-4, reads, “At last [...]

Escaping Out the Side Doors

I love going to church; I love hearing the Word of the Lord; and I love fellowshipping with my brothers and sisters in Christ.  All of this in my opinion, are acts of worship.  Everything we do to draw closer to God is worship, and we should be doing plenty of it.  God wants us [...]

Saying Good-bye

Max Lucado wrote from his book, ‘You'll Get Through This: Hope and Help for Turbulent Times.’  “Goodbye. No one wants to say it. And death is the most difficult good-bye of all. After our church had five funerals in seven days, the sorrow took its toll on me. I chided myself, “Come on, Max, get [...]

Are You In (R U N)? Running to Jesus

There are people out there that say the bible was the only book given to slaves and was one of the ways the white man kept them under bondage.  They say most blacks are still under the same bondage even today, because the book was used to brainwash their ancestors and has been passed down [...]

Always Be Ready to Give An Account

But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.  (1 Peter 3:15 NASB) The bible tells us to always be ready to give an account to everyone that [...]

Just Tell Them About Easter

The well-known Williams Brothers used to sing a song with the lyrics, I'm just a nobody, trying to tell everybody, about somebody, who can save anybody. It made me think of the sermon last week about being witnesses for Jesus, and how we allow so many opportunities to do so, just pass us by. Then [...]

Conversation with Momma

Love Them Now On December 28, 2014 my wonderful mother, Clarabelle Gerushia Wrencher went home to be with the Lord.  In July – August 2017, three sisters, Geneva, Marie, and Monica, joined my mom in heaven.  Last year 2019, my oldest brother James took his place alongside them.  Sometimes, death is expected; other times not.  [...]
