I'm hearing from experts around the world about what the destruction of USAID is meaning: "a global health massacre," in the words of a doctor who has devoted her life to humanitarian work on the front lines. Millions of malnourished children left to starve. Pregnant women not getting micronutrients to prevent neural tube defects. Programs against schistosomiasis abandoned. HIV positive patients left without ARV's. Water no longer purified. Surveillance against Ebola and bird flu set back. TB patients unable to get medicine. I've long argued that USAID should be reformed, but this Trump/Musk demolition is cruel and incompetent and benefits China, while killing children just as wonderful as our own.

Your own negativity is destroying God’s ability to work in your life—Pastor Alex Royes #mountpisgahsda #happysabbath

[Libna Stevens @libnastevens]

God takes us through detours because that’s what we need at the time. Instant blessings develop shallow faith. #mtpisgahsda #happysabbath

This Labor Day, let’s honor all the working men and women who make this country what it is—and the American labor movement that has helped protect them, especially during this pandemic.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s words remind us that darkness cannot drive out darkness and hate cannot drive out hate — only light and love can. As we seek to overcome this season of darkness in America, let us choose love and light and begin to heal — together. #MLKDay

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

America, I’m honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country.

The work ahead of us will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be a President for all Americans — whether you voted for me or not.

I will keep the faith that you have placed in me.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

This election is about so much more than @JoeBiden or me. It’s about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let’s get started.

If you are healthy, have a family that loves you, a few good friends, food on your table and a roof over your head, you are richer than you think.

Your situation can’t change God’s Word, but God’s Word can change your situation.

Jesus prepared 30 years for a 3 year ministry. Trust the process.

In a world that is getting darker… In a world where the truth is hard to find… In a world where you’re not sure which way you should go… The one place you can Count on for perfect truth is #Jesus.

“Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life...” John 14:6 NIV

We have to get to a place where I ends and God begins. -Pastor Alex Royes #happysabbath

The less you see your brokenness, it’s actually an indicator of how broken you are inside and in need of Jesus and His power to fix YOU. -Pastor Alex Royes

[Libna Stevens @libnastevens]

So many Christians have a give-me spirit. It’s all about me and how I can get something for me instead of letting God transform our brokenness -Pastor Alex Royes

[Vala Afshar @ValaAfshar]

Never confuse education with intelligence.

Intelligence isn't the ability to remember and repeat, like they teach you in school.

Intelligence is the ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use our knowledge to adapt to new situations.

—Professor Richard Feynman

Always been fascinated by Eccles. 12 ever since my English teacher in academy had us memorize it as part of learning about metaphors. Now years later I treasure it more. Bottom line is...”Fear God and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”#BHP20

God is more interested in your salvation than your comfort and blessings—Pastor Alex Royes #mtpisgahchurch #happysabbath
