Dear Lord,
Today. I thank You for everything. You allowed me to live, learn, and grow in difficult times. This year has been full of twist and turns, but You’ve always made ways. I eagerly await Your work in my life before year's end. Give me opportunities and help me make sound decisions to serve You. Amen🙏🏾
Dear Lord,
Today, I pray that I remain grateful in every situation. I really have no idea how many unidentified battles You have fought on my behalf. Your grace has carried me through life's ups and downs. Lord Jesus, wherever I am and whatever I have, I thank You. Amen🙏🏾
Dear Lord,
Today, I thank You for the blessings of the week ahead. I'm not looking back to what was. I press towards the mark of my calling. I declare that this week is filled with mind-blowing supernatural occurrances. I declare my double portion is now. In Jesus name. Amen🙏🏾
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Good things are coming my way.
Dear Lord,
Today, when things get difficult, remind me that the promise of my life is that many are the afflictions of the righteous, but You will pull me out of them all. I declare strength & grace where there's weakness, & victory where I feel defeated. In Jesus’ name. Amen🙏🏾
Dear Lord,
Today, I thank You that though the week is still going on and some of my expectations have yet to be satisfied, I know they will be. Your word guarantees the righteous' expectation will not be cut short. I thank You in advance for what’s coming. In Jesus’ name. Amen🙏🏾
See the young man in this picture? He was 18 years old when it was taken at the train station in Mobile, Alabama, in 1952.
There is $1.50 in his pocket. In that bag by his foot are two changes of clothes. (And if his mama was anything like most other mamas in the South, probably some sandwiches and other snacks.)
He was on his way to Indiana to take a job. He was going to play baseball for the Indy Clowns of the Negro Leagues. Apparently, he was pretty good at it. A couple of years later, he was signed by the Milwaukee Brewers. He played for the Brewers for 2 seasons, then moved across town to the Braves, and later followed them to Atlanta. Eventually, he was the last Negro League player to be on a major league roster.
He still hangs around the baseball world. At the moment, he's the senior vice president of the Atlanta Braves. Even though the team has changed stadiums (twice) since then, his retired number, 44, still hangs on the outfield wall of the old Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium near where he belted a homer to break Babe Ruth's all-time record which he held for 33 years).
Dear Lord,
Today, I believe that God doesn’t make any mistakes. You weren't having a bad day when You made me. You didn’t leave something out by accident. God calls me a masterpiece. I’m crowned with favor. I’m not lacking. I have everything I need to fulfill my destiny. Amen🙏🏾
