Expressions from our Partners
Brothers,
I often think about
Psalm 133. I learned that (Scripture) a long time ago in college, but
never understood it until I met you men. - Wil
Haynes
1 John 2:15 - Reminds us not to love or cherish this
present world. I would like to encourage all of us to take heed to these
words. The world can have many trappings that can destroy your dreams and
goals in life. So let us pull closer to God and allow him to direct our
life. - Derrick A. Osborne
I was promoted this month! I received several requests to
start a Bible Study by co-workers on my job. I read 2 Samuel 22. It shows
the love and protection of our Heavenly Father. He runs to our defense in
a time of trouble. - Steven Jefferson,
Sr.
Obedience – Genesis 6 & 7
Noah had
obedience even when he was humiliated. That’s great obedience. They laughed at
him, mocked him, and teased him and he was still obedient. While everybody else
was having fun and merry he was obedient building his ark and getting the
animals like he was supposed to. See that land had never received rain before
(if that was me I would’ve been like, “forget that this land hasn’t never rain,
so why all of a sudden it’s going to rain.” Now that’s foolishness) But Noah
obeyed him no matter how dumb it sounded, that’s the greatest obedience I have
ever heard of except Jesus obeying his Father until torcher and physical death.
Now that’s the greatest obedience. Noah obeyed God and everybody else didn’t
listen but Noah and his family survived while everybody else died. – Derrick Osborne Jr.
