Most Treasured.

" Most Treasured." It's time that the conscious Brothers teach those who have an open mind their rightful place. As Kings the royalty of Yah that through our disobedience and captivity a truth we cannot face. Many of us would rather call each other something derogatory than something that is real. We're the chosen of Yah we like Adam were created in His image but Yah's spirit many can't feel. As Kevin says two strikes and the two strikes in this society is being Black and a male too. In this so… Continue

“'Holy hip-hop' trying to break into mainstream”

By LUCAS L. JOHNSON II, Associated Press Writer NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Terverius Black believes in hip-hop gospel so much he sold his first home to get the money needed to start his Christian-themed entertainment company. It was a risky move, but the 34-year-old entrepreneur believes the company's diversity, which is producing music, a film, a reality television show and a gospel cruise, will help boost a struggling genre of Christian music. Secular hip-hop used radio as a launching pad, but holy… Continue

We Need to Stop Pointing Fingers by Shelly David Wright

"We Need to Stop Pointing Fingers." You'll hear from the Brothers it's the Sisters and you'll hear from the Sisters it's the Brothers too. We need to stop the finger pointing because it's all of us when we are truly unconscious to being Hebrew. My Brothers I know what Yah says about the Daughters of Zion and what He'll do to them but we're not without fault. On our Sisters we don't need to be pointing fingers at them Yah will deal with them so it's wrong for us to throw salt. To my Sisters I kn… Continue

My tears

My tears won’t stop rolling Maybe they’ll drown out the pain They should wash away hurt They should soak up the blame All of my failures should drain .............................. from my soul Out of these two God given windows My tears well up as the ocean at high tide Unlike the ocean, they don’t subside My vision gets blurred and I’m so full , I can’t see My tears spill out like water in a cup filled beyond its capacity In some ways I think that’s what tears be…….. An indication...........… Continue

My condolences

I am so sick and tired of hearing "this too shall pass." I didn't just fail a test or have a season of financial misfortune or failure. I just lost my son. How can you say it will pass when after I shower, I can still smell him on me? How can you say it will pass when I look at the milk falling from my breast and know that it was meant to nourish him and help him grow but not even my body can heal him or bring him back? How can you say it will pass when you don't know the hell I went through in… Continue

Connected Independence

It is wonderful to move To a new place every day. It is wonderful to flow Without ice and mud Everything my friends, Is gone with yesterday. All the words are gone.

It’s wonderful to flow in this moment of linear time where my spirit meets my flesh. It’s where yesterday and tomorrow i… Continue

Faith the size of a mustard seed

As you all know, my husband and I just lost our firstborn son. A son, we weren't sure we could conceive after trying for 2 years. Before Caleb's death, we were told that either he would have to born or I would need surgery to prevent his birth until February. My faith was so strong that I was convinced that the Lord would protect the pregnancy. I slept well that night. I remembered laughing at TV shows, and having witty conversations with the hospital staff. I never once thought about the possib… Continue

When i was diagnoised with cancer,one of my mentors suggested an idea to me. He suggested things happen for a reason. And maybe this go round I should stop and smell the roses. Suc… Continue

Are You At War?

Are You At War? Tanya James As Christians, there are some things you can be sure of ... battles will come, the enemy will try to take you out, people will come against you, and life as a Christian will not always be easy. There is simply no denying that spiritual warfare is real and present. However, you can find encouragement in the fact that you will get through it. It's one thing to be at war and not know the outcome. But how awesome is it to know that we have the victory in God? Even when i… Continue

Moments of Beholding

The hour is striking so close above me, So clear and sharp, That all my senses ring with it. I feel it now: There’s a power in me To grasp and give shape to my world. I know that nothing has ever been real Without my beholding it. All becoming has needed me. My looking ripens things And they come towards me, to meet and be met. No thing is too small for me to cherish And paint in gold, as if it were an icon That could bless us, Though I’ll not know who else among us Will feel this blessi… Continue

ARE YOU A HEARER ONLY OR A DOER OF THE WORD?

Dear brothers and sisters, what's the use of saying you have faith if you don't prove it by your actions? That kind of faith can't save anyone. Suppose you see a brother or sister who needs food and clothing and you say 'well goodbye and God bless you; stay warm and eat well' but then you don't give that person any food or clothing, what good does that do? So you see, it isn't enough just to have faith that doesn't show itself by good deeds is no faith at all- it is dead and useless - James 2:14… Continue
