I Pray We Get Uncomfortable....

I pray we become uncomfortable with doing business as usual.  I pray we get bored with doing the same ole' thing year in and year out with no attempt to evangelizing to the lost.

May we get uncomfortable with seeing people out on the street begging for money and asking if they can work for food to eat.  I pray we get uncomfortable with solely fellow-shipping with one another at the expense of being light and salt to others.  Lord help us to become uncomfortable.

I pray we get so uncomfortable with the purchasing of new vehicles, saying the Lord blessed us without touching and meeting the needs of others.  I pray we get uncomfortable with judging and condemning others without knowing their full story.

I pray we become uncomfortable and begin loving the unlovable....Lord please help us to get uncomfortable with young girls having babies, babies killing babies....young girls walking along the train tracks seeking out Johns and Lord help us be uncomfortable with the woman using the perfume samples in the pharmacy to freshen herself up from being out in those streets.....Lord, we must needs to get uncomfortable....  It's time for us to respond to the issues you have allowed our eyes to see......

Lord help us to get uncomfortable with the selfies, taking pictures of everything that does not reflect ministry modeled by our Savior (I'm talking to me too!)

Lord help us to get uncomfortable with wanting to have all the benefits but no relationship.  Lord helps us, we need to get uncomfortable......

Lord help us please to get uncomfortable with not being compassionate, and intentional about our efforts to make a difference in someone else's life ......
Lord, I pray for the day when we become uncomfortable rather sooner than later.
Lord, I pray that you help us to become uncomfortable TODAY in Jesus' name!

Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season. The lenten season is observed to better appreciate the death, and resurrection of Christ through self-examination, repentance, prayer, fasting, and self-denial. In addition, Ash Wednesday has another significant meaning for me. It was on this day, Ash Wednesday that the Lord brought me out of my induced coma in 2000, March 8th to be exact. Prior to that, I could only recall seeing my brother the night of the fire  in January who accompanied me in the ambulance while being transported to what was then called UMDNJ in Newark, NJ. On that Ash Wednesday, I can remember seeing both my grandmother and my mommy sitting in my hospital room. Grandma holding a can of Pepsi, and mommy doing something with my feet, lol. Probably clipping my toe nails. There is also that taste of chicken broth or soup I will never forget fed to me intravenously along with other fluids to sustain me while I was in a coma. Its been 16 years from t
Diamonds,  your focus should never be to rub elbows with those in power, but to humbly serve in the capacity He has called you! Watch beloved, in due season, God will exalt you to places and positions that you thought was dependent on others! However, there is some truth to this.....the right Person in fact, is the one who called you to your position of purpose in first place--Jesus! Keep your eyes and your undivided attention on Him! If He said it, believe it! You can ALWAYS take God at His word! #BeKneeDeepInService #GodWillRewardYourFaithfulness #HeWillPlaceYouInThePresenceOfKings #StayInThePresenceofGod

#REMEMBER

On the eve of the 18th Anniversary of the campus fire at Seton Hall University (1/19/00), the Lord woke me up early this morning with thoughts of my late beautiful mother, aka "Red,"  👄 Doris Marlene King-Christmas. She left this earth serving and caring for both my sick grandmother as well as myself (2002). On the day of her aneurysm, we were preparing for another surgery related to the fire but she held her head high while fighting back her own tears, held my hand and to get my mind off of surgery, she asked me to cook a packet of oodles of noodles (LOL) for her. That woman was determined for me to regain my activities of daily living because little did I know, I would one day have a family to care of for myself by the grace of God. I could not have made it this far without the Lord using her to begin the process of healing. She kept a song in her heart, and a step in her foot (picturing her dancing like David did minus the clothes falling off (LOL). I would have been l
