Happy New Year

This is a New Year.....and who of us reading this ever thought we would be here to see 2011? Remember it was supposed to be over when the bell toned at midnight in 1999. Y2K would wipe the world out as the computers had no abilities to turn with the turn of a century. 11 years later, we are here and doing rather well... I thank God for every step of the way and for every path He has allowed me to cross. I thank Him for every person that came into my life over the last years! Wow, its been so good! Stay tuned to the Blog... I have a lot of stuff to share with you! And in many cases, I need your prayers.
For starts, my brother fell today and broke four bones. He's so sick but such a trooper with his condition. Pray for him, Morris! It's so tough when sickness is in your close family and you cant be there; but such is life! The Lord is there, other family members and those of us who are not there are in prayer.

Secondly, someone outside of my home and church spoke to me in ways that came close to bringing the person that I used to be back! I stayed calm and collect! I also learned anew that the old man is not totally crucified and that certain stimuli can bring him back! Well, he didnt surface totally in me and now; I'm glad! I'm also glad because I don't owe any apologies this morning and had I said somethings that I may have thought it could have been UGLY.. But I absolutely hate being disrespected, and I know thats a part of life, but when the OTHER folks do it to me it makes me steam like the engine of a train. Racists ways still exist and in the folks who continuously act and say that it doesnt! Ahh.
Oh, Did I say, HAPPY NEW YEAR! That's all I really wanted to say for right now....thanks for tuning in to the Blog today! I love you!
Happy New Year Again..... And, as you view the year of 2011 through the eyes of faith may God give you as far as you can see!

Pastor Harvey, this Blog is such a blessing. I stumbled across it checking up on Pastor Marvin Wiley, I met him through one of my uncles in the Ministry Pastor Paul Lee out of Philadelphia where I pastor now...(1st year in it...not sure if you can remember back that far...LOL) Marvin is a great preacher and teacher. I saw your picture and then started checking out the Blog. Awesome and better than so many websites that I've seen. SIMPLE, UNDERSTANDING, HONEST, and INSPIRING. Whenever I can get away from my pulpit I will be sure to visit your church.

I love this post...you told the truth and you gave the truth. You gave a quick lesson on how a new mind handles old flesh...God Bless you Pastor...you are now also on my RADAR.
