FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE: OMNI-SPEAK

                               GOOD SON-DAY!!!

ENTERPRISE OVER THE HUDSON

 


FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE: OMNI-SPEAK

A favorite saying amongst believers to uphold our faith with God  and each other is “God is good all the time” and the response is “All the time God is good”.  The strength of this affirmation exchange is the word “all”.

It speaks to God’s infallibility, His reliability, His ability to defy the laws of science, His love.

All refers to God’s omni-traits, omni-sci (all knowing), omnipotent (all powerful), omni-present (always there---everywhere), and omnibenevolent ( all good---supremely good), omni-life (all life – He is our existence. . . “I am that I am” a).

Knowing these divine attributes is deeply assuring.  We are never alone in whatever we face; moreover, we are in a wonderful position to be successful in whatever endeavor.

In one week, we celebrate the resurrection of the Anointed Savior, which meaning of the anglicized name Jesus Christ.  I told you who God is.  I would ask you as Holy Week approaches, who do you say He is?   Peter replied, “You are the anointed (chosen one), the Christ, the Son of God. b

This gets us back to why things like this out loud or to declare for everyone to hear.  It is affirming.

Jesus obviously knew He was, but He wanted Peter and the others to uphold publicly who He is.  We still must do this.  Nothing but good comes out of this.  Make this week “Declaration Week” to coincide with Holy Week.

I would end by saying think on these things, better----------say these things.

a.       a. Exodus 3:14

b.       b. Matthew 16:15

SONG OF THE WEEK

“It’s Gonna Rain”, 1999, performed by Milton Brunson & Thompson Community Singers, song written by Andre Crouch.

Yes, the title is the same as last week’s song, but trust me it is a different song.  You get the best of two Gospel music styles.  The singers are from the South of Chicago and the music is LA style with Andre’s contribution.

A little history.  The original Thompson Community Singers were formed by Rev. Milton Brunson in 1948 when he was still a high school student. The community choir regularly met and rehearsed at Chicago’s St. Stephens Church where the pastor, Rev. Eugene Thompson, was a huge supporter, and christened itself in his honor. 

Rev. Brunson eventually became an ordained minister and formed Christ Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church in 1962 on Chicago’s westside (North Central Ave & Iowa St). Rev. Brunson died suddenly in 1997. His widow continued the choir for a while before disbanding it and supervised its final album Real for Word Records in 2000.




It’s Gonna Rain Lyrics

Can't you see the clouds gathering

Don't let it be said too late

There's a brand new feeling in the air

Better run to the ark before the rain starts

You better come on in this house

It's gonna rain

It's gonna rain (Repeat)

Doors have been

Opened wide open, just call his name

Don't wait too late because it's gonna rain

Come on, follow me, it's gonna rain (Repeat)

Doors have been

Opened wide open, just call his name

Don't wait too late because it's gonna rain

Here is Your Mother

It is a Good Son-Day Indeed Mother's Day Menagerie Here is Your Mother I am blessed in so many ways to be surrounded so many wonderful women who have brought into the world exceptional human beings.  Thank God every day for the mothers who have impacted my life.  I know when I need them they will be there for me and they know I will reciprocate. As I continue the epic saga of post-resurrection Christ I would be remissed if I did not include presence at the cross and the acession of Christ.  Typical mother, always there for an extraordinary and exceptional anointed Savior she birth into this world. Take care of the women who are your biological, step, assumed, spiritual, in-law, in-lieu of physical mother. Christ, Mary his mother, Christ's disciple, and Christ's charge to His disciple. John 19:25-27 25 Standing near the cross were Jesus’ mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary (the wife of Clopas), and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw His mother standing there beside the di...

Freely You Have Received, Freely Give

Good Son-day Morning!!! enjoying 70's Nothing But Good News here. Hanging with My Axe'd Freely You Have Received, Freely Give Many economists are predicting a recession is in the making.  Quick lesson, a recession is defined as two straight quarters of negative value of goods and services produced in the USA (GDP, Gross Domestic Product). Other indicators like employment rates, business investment, and consumer spending also are considered.  A recession causes hardships for almost everyone, especially those whose income is below the Federal Poverty Level (for an individual, $967/month, and a couple, $1,450/month). During the holidays, the public has a more heightened sense towards the needs of impoverished people.  For the other 10 months of the year, less so.  There is a serious struggle for food shelves, clothing resources, and shelters to meet the demands of impoverished people.  I have seen this in my visits to the many community resources in the metro...

Live Roses

 Good Son-Day - The Start of  Something New Ice Creameisters! Live Roses The day after Christmas, I got a call from a former co-worker I had connected with for about a year or so. I started the conversation by asking about her grandchild and two daughters. I proceeded to ask her how her husband was doing and got an unexpected quick but poignant answer: "Oh, he's doing fine; we're getting a divorce."  Wait, what! This couple was married for 30-plus years.  The husband is retired. Nice home in the burbs,  Both children are college grads.  Empty nesters. The American Dream. What happened? I did not pry.  The only thing she offered was, "One day, I was sitting at the dining room table.  He sat directly across from me.  I looked at him.  I said to myself I can't do this anymore. I knew then I needed to file for a divorce."   The  news sent me for a spin.  At first, I thought he must have cheated, or he spent too much time at hi...
