Today, we observed Go Pink Sunday in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

Our Health Ministry, led by Sis. Lisa Anderson, blessed us with valuable information and helpful facts about maintaining good health and the importance of breast cancer awareness.

We were also inspired by a powerful testimony from breast cancer survivor, Sis. Pamela Winters.

Our congregation proudly celebrated breast cancer survivors by participating in the "Parade of Pink" showing love, support, and solidarity with those who have faced this journey.

“Be Christlike and Be Consistent”

Good afternoon. Friday’s moment of meditation at midday comes from I Peter 3:16, “Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.”

Beloved, lies travel quickly, but the truth lasts longer. Rarely do we need to run down or chase down an untruth that was said about us. If necessary, God will catch it, stop it and deal with the ones that are spreading it!

Moreover, it has been said, “When someone accuses you of doing something you’re not doing, it’s (often) because they’re the ones doing it.” Now, that’s something to chew on!

My friends, all we must do is “Be Christlike and Be Consistent.” May we walk right, talk right, think right, live right, give right and treat people right. None of us are perfect, but perfection is still the goal because being like Jesus is the goal!

As the Apostle Peter intimates in today’s verse, your conscience can be clear when you have good behavior (NIV, conversation-KJV) in Christ. He also suggests that many of those that misrepresented you will eventually be ashamed of their words and their actions. They may never admit it to you, but you never know how God may touch a person’s heart.

Lastly, false accusations can sting a bit, but the sting will soon wear off. However, the strength you gained from the experience will stay with you forever. Indeed, you’ll increase your wins with some much thicker skin!

God for us is more than the whole world against us!!

“The Truth”

Good afternoon. Thursday’s moment of meditation at midday comes from Psalm 40:4, “Blessed is the man that maketh the Lord His trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.”

Beloved, today’s Psalm of David provides three very clear points: Blessed are those who: 1) trust the Lord, 2) resist the proud, and 3) avoid liars and are not easily deceived by them.

Indeed, trust God, and He will never let you down. Trust God even when you cannot understand what He’s doing. It may not make much sense now, but trust God anyway, and one day soon, you’ll see God work it out!

Moreover, don’t spend too much time with the proud or those that think they’re better than everyone else. Their haughty and high-minded attitude might rub off on you! Please know, “It is better to be humble and happy than to be arrogant and lonely”!

Also, stay away from those who have a propensity for sharing falsehoods. When you talk to them, you don’t know and you can’t know what to believe. Jesus intimated in Matthew 24:24 that false Christs and false prophets shall one day show great signs and wonders and will attempt to deceive even the very elect of God. None of us are exempt from the enemy’s efforts at trickery.

Misinformation is the order of the day nowadays. We cannot believe everything we hear, and we cannot even believe everything we think we see. Please consider: “Lying won’t erase the truth, it will only delay it’s discovery,” and “Liars and cheaters deceive themselves more than anyone by thinking they’re actually getting away with something.” God knows!

So, my friends, stick with Jesus and stick with the Word, and “The Truth” will stick to you!

The truth will come out!!

“You Need Jesus”

Good afternoon. Wednesday’s moment of meditation at midday comes from John 8:6, “This they said, tempting Him, that they might have to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down, and with His finger wrote on the ground, as though He heard them not.”

Beloved, in the opening verses of John 8, the know-it-all scribes and self-righteous Pharisees supposedly caught a woman in adultery and brought her to Jesus demanding that she be punished according to the law.

It is interesting to note that they were breaking law when they insisted that Jesus carry out the law. According to the Old Testament law, BOTH persons were to be punished, not just the woman!

Jesus ignored them and began writing something on the ground with His finger. What was He writing? The Bible does not say, but wouldn’t it be neat if He was writing down her accusers’ sins? Maybe just maybe He also wrote down, “When you point a finger at someone, three more of your fingers are pointing right back at you.” Or maybe, “When you dig one ditch, you may as well dig two!”

Regardless of what He wrote down, what He said shut them down: “He who is without sin cast the first stone.” One by one they began leaving the scene in humility, and Jesus then told the woman to go and sin no more.

When Jesus came, died and rose again, He did not change the definition of sin in most cases, but He did change the punishment for sin. Thanks to Jesus we are forgiven!

Lastly, people at times ask do you really need Jesus to go to Heaven. The answer is simple: This world is so full of haters, not only do you need Jesus to go to Heaven, “You Need Jesus” to go to the grocery store! Thank you, Jesus!

We can live because He forgives!!
