This is excerpts of an article I received in my inbox. Not often do I post the sayings of someone else. However, this article struck a cord with me personally. Sharing it was not even a question. I have also shared it on a social network site. When I came back across it, I had to post it on our site. This is a wakeup call!! What are we going to do about this! Black people the ball is in our court! Wake Up!

Last month I heard the phrase, “People live in glass houses.” This phrase came from a group which included several Christians. Christians who profess a hope in Christ when I spoke with them. I was struck by the saying because I could not figure out what it was really talking about.

There are so many emotions as I wake up today. It was 21 years ago that God gave me the awesome man I am sending off to work today. There have been ups and downs. Each one has been a growing moment for our relationship. We have had disappointments and made horrible decisions that we at times look at each other and say, “What were we thinking?!” Through it all I can say that when we learned to give it to the Lord, things began to be better.

School is a saving grace for a lot of reasons. One of them is that the children take with them a wonderful hot breakfast in the morning and on several days take a great lunch. Lunch costs about $1.25 per child and serves to get them in the truck after school. At that time we have a snack and something to drink. This snack will tide them over until a well balanced dinner.
