The Healing Of The High Priest's Servant

(Matthew 26:51-54; Mark 14:47-49; Luke 22:49-53; John 18:10-11) Jesus had just arisen from his agonized Prayer in the garden of Gethsemane, when A great number of soldiers and servants of The Pharisees, carrying lanterns, torches and Weapons entered the garden. Judas Iscariot, leading the fierce band, Came near to Jesus and gave him a kiss, The sign of betrayal, while the soldiers and Servants laid hands on Jesus. At this moment, the disciple Simon Peter Drew his sword and cut off the right ear of Malchus, the servant of the high priest. Jesus admonished Peter, "Put your sword Into its sheath; for all they that take the Sword shall perish with the sword". Then he turned to the servant, "touched His ear and healed him." Didn't the Lord Preach on his sermon on the mountain "Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you"!




Today I am obedient to the ways of God.

The time has come for people of color to admit the role they 
play in their own condition. We have been disobedient to the 
laws of nature, the traditions of the ancestors and the will 
of God. We have allowed ourselves to remain in situations we 
know are unproductive out of fear, which is a result of our 
disobedience, violations of tradition and arrogance in the 
face of the lows of God. We blamed others for the things we 
do not do for ourselves. We have betrayed one another to 
acquire personal riches. We have behaved irresponsibly toward 
ourselves, have been unaccountable for ourselves, disrespectful
toward ourselves by being disobedient and abandoning the word 
of God. What is Gods will? Put the Creator first in all that 
we do. What is God's law? Do unto others as we would have them
do unto us. What is God's word? Love thy brother, and they 
sister as you would love yourself. If we are to regain our 
stature in the world as a proud and mighty people, we must be 
obedient in following the traditions of the ancestors and we 
must adhere to the will, laws and word of God.


You cannot fix what you will not face.
