Martin Luther King said in his “I Have A Dream” Speech:

But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of [...]

I have deemed this week, “give a dollar” week. I am challenging everyone to give a dollar to anyone who ask (that’s if your account is not in the red) – homeless and homed alike.

James 2:15-16
If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use [...]

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” – Genesis 1:1
“The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heaven. By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.” – Proverbs 3:19

*To begin, the God made the heavens and the earth. This may be an easy thing for us to grasp. So lets go to step two:

“In the beginning was the [...]

I am an old fashion girl, and I am stuck in my ways. I appreciate the new and ever increasing ways to teleport our thoughts. Let me count the ways:

1. e-mail
2. text
3. phone
4. tweet
5. blog
6. status messages
7. BBM
8. old fashion he-said-she-said
9. face-to-face
10. social networking (facebook, myspace….)

Out of all the methods to communicate, I cherish face-to-face interaction. Instead of having dry words on a blank screen to extrapolate meaning, I can utilize all of my God given sensors to really connect [...]

I just experienced that greatest miracle of my lawschool career – a snow storm that gave me a week off from school. Although I should have been doing school work, instead, I spent much of my time catching up on rest and doing some good b-i-b-l-e studies. I would have never imagined all the wonderful truths that are laid out, plain, in the bible. I am now starting to understand what true faith is all about. It is not about [...]

Music can awaken the imagination and the spirit of creativity.
It is a treasure, a well, that’s buried within.
Music brings healing and comfort to the human spirit,
And influences one’s thinking and moves the mouth to sing.

Music gives wings to the human mind,
And allows the soul to soar where eagles fly,
Reliving precious moments and creating make-believe worlds,
Renewing, refreshing, and transforming minds.

Music stirs the emotions and ignites the physical energy,
Incased in the human soul,
Spilling out into the earthly atmosphere,
Creating new beginnings, encouraging, and [...]

“Who is my judge?” “God is my judge.” “Why is God your judge?” “He decides whether I win or lose.” “And who are your opponents?” “I have no opponents … merely dissenting voices to the truth I speak.”

I just watched Great Debaters tonight, and fell in love with that movie. I was particularly impressed with the oratory skills of the young woman in the film. Me, being a female Howard Law School student, could bare [...]

2 Timothy 3:1-5 – “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.”

I know by now, may of you get the point. [...]
