My reading this AM was Matt 11. John the Baptist sends word to Jesus from prison, “Are you the one to come or should we expect someone else?”Jesus responds with words from Isaiah that John would’ve known by heart. “The blind see, lame walk, deaf hear...blessed is the unoffended.”

155 years ago was the first step to freedom.

Today we acknowledge the history behind the day, continuing to demand the need for equality.

RETWEET!!! Vanessa's family hasn't heard from her since April. They said she was having a problem with someone else at Fort Hood before her disappearance.

A reward of up to $15,000 is now being offered for credible information on her whereabouts.

“Be strong in the Lord & in the strength of His might.” We will crash 1 by 1 - drive 90 mph into a brick wall- in these brutal days if we’re fueled by human energies like adrenaline & anger. We will hate the world God so loved. We will burn down relationships & destroy ourselves.

Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the Lord understand it completely. Proverbs 28:5

Many of us who were participants in the Civil Rights Movement saw our involvement as an extension of our faith.

We saw ourselves doing the work of the Almighty.

Segregation and racial discrimination were not in keeping with our faith, so we had to do something.

I appreciate the sentiment, but we Christians may need to suggest solutions to injustice that don’t involve every American suddenly following Jesus.

Praying for revival and working for reform are not mutually exclusive.

White friends: Protests photos are dangerously close to the mission trip photo.

The silence of white evangelicals is much louder than they realize.

[Briana McCarthy @IamBriMcCarthy]

White friends, I am glad that you are passionately speaking up for justice. My ask is that you fuel your passion with Scripture as well as research. Lastly, yield to the Holy Spirit and allow him you speak through you. Only he can change hardened hearts and open blinded eyes.

[Ameen @Ameen_HGA]

It’s so crazy that most reformed evangelicals talk so much about depravity & how sin is so deceptive that it can work in our hearts in ways that are imperceptible unless someone points it out - but RACISM however, is a sin that one will ALWAYS be able to notice within themselves

[Beth Moore @BethMooreLPM]

I’ve lived long enough to know what I want out of life. My aim is to live & love in imitation of Jesus. Though I daily fail, I’m resolute in the pursuit. It is not that I do not care what you think or what that looks like to you. It’s that I care incomparably more what He thinks.

@abc13houston Houstonian in Kenya here! US Embassy says they currently have NO DIRECTIVE to help American citizens return home. Kenya govt. declared borders will close Weds. All outbound flights before then are full/canceled. Why wait to issue the directive? We need HELP to get HOME.
