Today I celebrate
another season of life in God's great universe. I am thankful to everyone who
has given me expressions and greetings of warm welcome. It is very good to know
one does not live in the world alone. Each of you have influenced me and impacted
me in a very positive way. I'm thankful for the opportunity to serve within the
community of my birth and witness the 160th year anniversary of Union Baptist Church .
The past few months have been a world
wind of activity. I have gone from the White House to Morehouse. I have been in
the presence of President Barack Obama, and in the shadow of the image of The
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
God can do amazing things within your time and
space. I'm thankful and appreciate each moment, He has granted to me. Even
at this stage of life, I've learned the vastness of God's love and the ability
to love without conditions.
I'm surrounded by a cadre of colleagues who are
amazing and brilliant. I’m enveloped within a family, nuclear and extended, who
pray together and stay together. I have an amazing group of friends who stick
closer than a brother or a sister. In the final analysis, I can say without any
fear of contradiction, "I am truly blessed."
