When Dreams Converge...


On Martin's day it is impossible to not connect the dots of history before us. Dr. King was a friend of GOD, dreamer, prophet and martyr for human dignity. Forty-five years after his most famous speech, another man stands ready to take up that dream. This man knows that a dream this big can only come to pass if all GOD's people say, "Yes, we can."

I was moved as many ordinary men and women were interviewed yesterday. Some had been present in the summer of 1963 for that first March on Washington. These elders could not hold back their tears of joy and wonder. Like Simeon and Anna who recognized the Savior in Mary's arms, they, too, have seen GOD's promise fulfilled. "For there is neither male or female, slave or free, Gentile or Jew; for all are one in CHRIST (Galatians 3:28)."
Blessings and love to you all...
