The Effective Road.......

Visit http://mesacam.wordpress.com/2011/08/11/10-steps-for-making-a-major-life-change/ for personal advice on change.

It dosen't happen overnight. But as we work on it, whatever the change is for, we shall see a result! Every now and then something happens to cause us to want to do something. We may want to take action yet we may not know how.

We can join with a current group already in existence for that same change or start a campaign in our own community. Change does start in us first. Then we can be a more effective witness to our friends, family and community. That's how some preachers made it. Some of them were a mess and will tell you the same; but it was the change made that caused other people to see. Seeing the change in one helps others in their decision to listen. It is because of the one with evidence of change taking place in their life that gives this effect.

Just look at fundraisers for organizations. They always have the ones that experienced the program to tell their story as evidence of the organizations effectiveness. Some call them the poster child for the cause but that poster markets the message! Evidence is something that 'furnishes proof,' Merriam-Webster.com. Examples of proof are "facts, documentation, or testimony as identified by about.com.

Lets plan to effect change like we plan what we will wear the next day. Watch the weather report. What are you wearing when you effect change tomorrow? If its gonna rain then bring the umbrella, or poncho. Stand like the palm tree that isn't uprooted from the storm. Get others like you to stand up and bear fruit from the seeds sown in your grassroots or established organiations of change!

Selah (Pause, weigh and think of that) Be Blessed!

Her very own cousin Curtis Harris, served to make sure Medgar Evers legacy was protected back in Mississippi years ago. She shared these sentiments to those of us in attendance as we sipped our tea and tipped our hats in her honor. Speaki...

Economics, Balance and Love!

Hello World! I attended the 13th Annual Rainbow PUSH Wall Street Project Economic Summit this afternoon in New York, NY. The topic: “Targeted Stimulus: A Call to Equity and Parity.” The event dates are January 13-15, 2010 at the Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers. www.wallstreetproject.org The Project was founded on January 15, 1996 to honor the birth of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the beginning of the first quarter of the business year. The Project’s organizational origin, as referenced on the website, rests with the Southern Christian Leadership Conference’s Operation Breadbasket, established by Dr. King in 1966 to work toward a more inclusive America by combining theology with the struggle for economic justice. This afternoon’s highlights included: New York State Governor David Patterson receiving the Percy Sutton Award and Pastor Hezekiah Walker receiving the Reverend Timothy Wright award. The United States Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack spoke of the many oppo...
