After reading and studying the Bible for 50 years--and weighing all the criticisms of it--I am convinced it is the Word of God, completely true in all it teaches, beautifully cohesive, with the supernatural power to transform us and enable us to commune with God.
Lord Jesus,
stay with us,
for evening is at hand
and the day is past;
be our companion in the way,
kindle our hearts,
and awaken hope,
that we may know you
as you are revealed
in Scripture and the breaking of bread.
Grant this for the sake of your love.
Amen.
In celebration of Black History Month, I am reminded of the work of great minds like Thurgood Marshal, who say's “In recognizing the humanity of our fellow beings,(black folks) we pay ourselves the highest tribute.”
—Thurgood Marshall, first African American U.S. Supreme Court.
Lord, do not let me, or the church I love, fall into anecdotage, where the mind dwells nostalgically and incessantly on the grandeur of the past and stops dreaming about the possible glories of the future.
