HOPE!!! AT THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF THE MLK MARCH

SOME FAMOUS QUOTES OF MLK

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”

“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”

“There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.”

“Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”

“No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they’d die for.”

This pass Sat. the 24th of August.  I was in Washington D.C. to start off what seems to be leading into a great finale on today the 28th of August the actual day of the march on Washington 50 years ago where Thousands of visitors flocked and will flock to Washington, to commemorate the famous March on Washington a half century ago for “Jobs, Justice & Freedom,” and a 21st century Agenda that looks somewhat like the country’s agenda 50 years ago.

As part of this historic march, Dr. King, delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech on August 28, 1963, from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. The alarm will go out to all people once again today, and all across America and throughout the world for unity along with a featured address by President Barack Obama. upon arriving in Washington my Agenda was a little different from most of the vast sea of people.

As my beautiful Niece Karee and my sister Debbie, we walk a little over 20 miles in a 10 hour time frame SPREADING THE GOOD NEWS OF CHRIST SOON RETURN. Each of us HAD A DREAM, A DREAM that centered on our FAITH, that we could make a difference in someone’s life on this beautiful day in Washington. It has been said that man can live about forty days without food, about three days without water, and about eight minutes without air, but only one second without hope!

And as we looked into the eye’s of so many, and the disappointment of what this world was offering many had already died, because of NO HOPE in there lives. The spectrum of people seemed to go from the hopeless, to the unconcerned, to the energetic, to those who seek hope but not knowing where to find it, to those who fill they have HOPE, but listening to them realize there knowledge does not come from God’s Word so they are still WITHOUT HOPE,

to the sincere Christian, of various FAITH, CREEDS, and COLOUR. So as a christian myself I took a heartfelt and sincere look at the make up of this vast accumulation of ideas, HOPE, and HOPE lost. And realizing this is a small sample of the larger world we live in. The question we must ask ourselves, how do we present unity through Christ to a world where there seems to be no unity. there eyes tells the story of hope lost and not knowing how to gain a passion to seek after it.

So how do we  present to a world, Christ, the Living Hope 1 Peter 1:3-5 tells us Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively HOPE by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Science fiction tells us There will be a last baby born, a last marriage performed, a last kiss, a last song, and a last hurrah. But as a Christian and one who tries to die in Christ daily I go to the Word of God for answers, in 1 Peter 1:3 it tells me “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living HOPE through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 

Romans 5:2-5 also tells me. Through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the HOPE of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;  perseverance, character; and character, HOPE. And HOPE does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Many who traveled by bus, train, car or plane to Washington in 1963 went because they wanted their voices heard, but I noticed 50 years later unity alludes this vast crowd. No one voice tells the world we have come to our nation’s capital to cash a check….., America has given the Negro people a bad check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.” but looking at the world we live in today.

Not only blacks but a world marred by sin has received this notice, but no one has told them your only HOPE of cashing this check is in Jesus Christ Yes my friends I HAVE A DREAM also, A dream that all Christians will have a burning passion to tell of the good news of HOPE to a world that has allowed Technology, to become there god. where we wake up each morning and go to bed each night and say the words; our heavenly facebook thou kingdom come thou will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

And You would think with so much knowledge, the world would be headed to peace and tranquility, but still we’re on the road to destruction Our knowledge has not produced A paradise instead it has created a generation of well-informed people who know more about house wife’s of Atlanta, or Brad Pitts twitter account then the word of God.We have decided that God is irrelevant with no beneficial advantage.

So now we have become intelligent, and well-informed, but with no knowledge of God which then only produces intellectual sinners. disciplined and educated, But with no GREAT HOPE We are THE INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW GENERATION, “always learning but never able to come to knowledge of where TRUE HOPE LIES (2 Timothy 3:7) tells us Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

The only way you will ever find ETERNAL HOPE, AND BE ABLE TO TELL OTHERS OF THIS HOPE and TRUTH is by seeking through faith the God of the Bible and His Holy Word, this weekend I witness a society that seems to have lost HOPE and therefore have rejected the TRUTH, and are uninformed, for lack of study in genuine TRUTH, where lies OUR REAL HOPE.

My friends, God is calling us to FOCUS AND MAINTAIN a PASSION today in spreading the good news. As you tell a world Of HOPE, UNITY, FAITH, LOVE, ENDURANCE AND THE SOON RETURN OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR. Yes we as Christians must be the bond that brings unity to a dying world  for Luke 19:40 tells me if “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”

friends how deep is your love for the Master, Who gave up everything for you on Calvary. please find that PASSION from within A WORLD AWAITS US.

So my friends stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
