FW: blog

 

a blessed Monday morning..the Psalmist stated..Praise the Lord, ye children, praise ye the name of the Lord...

this in Psalm 112, if we could all only start with that every day a prayer of praise, we would be able to start with `no matter Jewish or Christian or Muslim or whatever..Someone came to my door yesterday and said JIm can you say a prayer for me, one of our major donors, a great person, told him i would be honored...very successful, we are all called to support one another, to pray for one another to help one another...

Interesting times..as I took my morning walk to the train station..a long time homeowner in New Rochelle stated to me as he caught the train to his financial job..seems like they want to push people out of New Rochelle...remember the day when no one would be pushed out...when people were welcomed. a taxpayer feeling this way,  is really very sad, but there is hope..there is you and I who can ask that each municipality works to make a priority to those residents the grew up here, worked h ere, spent their tax money here..  They should be able to do that shouldn't we...everyone looks to be that glimmering person that brings in something new...no problem, but what about that elected official that would want to support the people that were their teachers, their police, their bank tellers, their bus drivers, their working force...

 

Last as we celebrate this anniversary of Dr King..who had a dream..who continues to inspire me every time i hear one of his speeches on pbs or the history channel, let us fight for the dream makers for people of all backgrounds, who want  a simple decent home.. please make a donation today if you can..Know that all of you are in my prayers during this time.. with gratitude..jjk
