In this period of unprecendented challenges, we can focus on the negative or we can embrace the positive.  We can live in fear and worry, or we can use this time to celebrate our progress, find the lesson and the opportunity in our circumstances, refocus on our purpose, and nurture the precious gift of life.  We can look outside ourselves for answers, but we must also reach inside and find that reservoir of strength that has always sustained and moved us forward as a people.We must never forget how far our faith in God and in ourselves has taken us.  Let us remember to count our blessings:  Eleven percent unemployment in our communities means that 89 persent of us are still working.  If you are fortunate enough to be part of that 89 percent, reach out to your jobless sister or brother to offer leads, contacts, an attentive ear.  Above all, don't lose hope because no matter where we find ourselves in this moment, we can still look to a future where everything is possible.Hope, gratitude and positive thinking are not only good for the health of our minds and bodies, but they are also essential to moving our communities and our country forward.  As the Scriptures remind us, "Where there is not vision, the people perish."  So rather than singing the blues, I'm inspired by the lyrics of my favorite Marvin Sapp gospel song, "Never Would Have Made It."  Maybe Marvin's message will ring true for you, too:  When I  look back over what He brought me through,  I realize that I made it because I had you to hold on to.  Now I am stronger, now I am wiser,  I am better, so much better.  I made it....Regards,Ella Relford ...read more
