This morning I came across the #MLK #BirminghamLetters and this quote reminded me of my own drive for fighting injustice "...when you are forever fighting a degenerating sense of "nobodiness"--then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait. There comes a time when the cup of endurance runs over, and men are no longer willing to be plunged into the abyss of despair. I hope, sirs, you can understand our legitimate and unavoidable impatience"

A couple of scriptures we used in the blog. So real: “I tell you, her sins–and they are many–have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love" (Luke 7:47). “Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things” (1 Corinthians 13:7).

Read our new #AsWeAre blog post (link in bio) - The area of selfishness that I struggle with is my nature as an overachiever. I started off our marriage devoting lots of time into... Forgiveness is messy, difficult and uncomfortable, but when done genuinely, it is the cure to the cancer of the soul. https://asweare.wordpress.com/2016/02/24/the-art-of-forgiveness Artwork done by the talented @onechichippie

Trends die, but style is resilient like these beautiful - #blackhistorymonth @MessyNessyChic recaptures a story forgotten by this generation, "The Dapper Rebels of Los Angeles, 1966" : "In the summer of 1965, riots broke out in the Watts neighborhood of southern Los Angeles. Over a six-day period, 34 people were killed, 1,032 injured and over 3,438 arrests were made. In 1966, LIFE magazine revisited the site of the worst riots America had ever seen in its history. The photo essay depicting the region’s ‘fearsome street gangs’ however, turned out more like a fashion shoot for dapper style… Where the black community could buy homes in American suburbia and live out the middle-class dream, significant racial violence escalated. White gangs bombed homes and burnt crosses on the lawns. In response to the assaults, black mutual protection clubs formed and became the basis of the region’s fearsome street gangs."

Looks like a dope book. Thoughts? Excerpt from #TheBlackPresidency - "Obama's presidency represents the paradox of American representation. Obama represents for all of us because he stands as the symbol of America to the world. He also represents to the American citizenry proof of progress in a nation that has never before embraced hey black commander-in-chief. Yet a third sense of representation has a racial tinge, because Obama is also a representative of a black populace that, until his election, had been excluded from the highest reach of political representation." #michaelericdyson #Obama

New on the #ASweAre Blog - "This week Semaj really had it on his heart to talk about prayer...Prayer is truly the glue that holds our marriage and us as individuals together. Whether I find myself upset, tired, afraid, happy, etc. it is important to me that I always keep the lines of communication open with God." #prayer #thelordsprayer #marriage #discouraged #encouragement #communication #talkingtogod
