Deacon Reginald D. Waterman
Happy February! We have so much to celebrate within this beautiful new month. A month that has been and always will be signified as a month of celebration for our “Black Heritage.” A month that overflows with a theme of
love where color has no boundaries and love shines through without restrictions. Yes, it is BLACK HISTORY MONTH! So let us celebrate in knowing that every day is a chance to live fully and love deeply. Let each day be a new beginning, embracing our uniqueness as a race while facing the realization that the world would choose for us to be looked down upon us as being different when in reality the only difference is on the outside but we all have the same heart on the inside! Yes, it is BLACK HISTORY MONTH! So let us celebrate while self-reflecting on our successes, learning from our failures, embracing our abundant blessings, cherishing the new opportunities that await us all while connecting to the beauty that lies within each of us, surrounding ourselves with the love of God. Yes, it is BLACK HISTORY MONTH! So let us celebrate as we grow in grace and gratitude. Let this be a season of steadfastness in our faith with the reminder that God is still on the throne and if it had not been for the Lord on our side, where would we be. Yes, it is BLACK HISTORY MONTH! So let us celebrate as we remember our heritage and our heroes. Those who paved the way, who fought the good fight and our now amongst the “great cloud of witnesses” who served as examples and have left their testimonies of living by faith as they fought for our privileges and rights of freedom as a black race while keeping their eyes on Jesus. Yes, it is BLACK HISTORY MONTH! So let us celebrate and carry the mantle forth never giving up with the knowledge and hope that love has everything to do with it because we have the love of God’s true Valentine to us in our hearts, JESUS! HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH and VALENTINE’S DAY Much love, blessings and peace! The Year of Embracing the Change
