Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourself, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast.
Please Do Not Forget to Read the Message of The Gift.

For The Word Of God
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edge sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow: it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
Great comfort in these trying days, more important than any pandemic, the love of God for us. He only wants two things, Faith and Trust. Let us trust him to see us through these times. The knowledge of his Mercy-Grace-Love is enough to keep us going. God keep us close to your heart of love and underneath your hand of protective care for we pray in your Holy Name, Forever and ever.

A Person Finds Joy In Giving
A person finds joy in giving an apt-reply- and how good is timely word: Poverbs 15:23
The attitude and attributes of Christian life. Nothing shows Christianity than one joyous attitude, joy in knowing your Saviour. The great beauty of Christian life - relationships in your life is not your own it's brought with a wonderful price. Your life should be a joy and not a burden. We get cast down and we should be taught that Christ and his wonderful Son Jesus was always there. We all find joy in a beautiful relationship with one another. Let us rejoice in the knowledge that we are capable of love one for another. Jesus tells us to love one another as we love him. What a challenge when we even consider how much he loves us.
Blessings

May These Words of My Mouth
May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Psalms 19:14
This is a marvelous word from Gods word is a Challenge-Call-Mercy filling of the of the Grace and love manifest from the God of Glory. Everyday of my life, I must depend on my Blessed Lord, must depend on those who assist me to live a somewhat normal life. Please answer this question, Why is it that those ones who I trust, whom I must depend on: those who keep a watchful eye on my financial accounts get so negligence when they well know I do business with them because I depend on them? Someone in my condition should not and will not depend on these people for help. If you don't have some confidence in your doctor you need to make a change, this morning, I am aggravated to the core in placing my faith in someone to handle my business, he has shown me he is not interested in keeping my buisness. All of my friends, business associates enjoy what they assume is flattering of me being able to accumulate funds to show my love. I find that most family, friends, and business acquaintance never comprehend what it has taken to accumulate and stay in charge of my affairs a total blind person, total disable person I honestly believe that most people I know just think that things take care of themselves. Please pray that there is an awakening everywhere not just in my life.
On this day I was feeling pretty good until knocked down by incompetency.
I had to decide to make a gift now instead of in my death to UMO which I asked for it to remain quiet but to my amazement it has been told everywhere.
I pray for all of you on this day and ask that the wall of protection from our Blessed Lord be extended to me. Please pray that our God of Love is sufficient for all our needs, Today, Tomorrow, and always
Blessings

The Start of An Era
North Carolina Minute
FIRST MOVING PICTURE
The first motion picture movie show in North Carolina took place in Wilmington in 1897, when Thomas Edison's projector known as the "Projectscope" showed several revolving moving pictures. Edison had purchased a projector invented by Thomas Armat in 1895 and improved its operation. Wilmington was selected because it was at that time the largest town in the state and t hey had a beautiful Opera House.
Among the pictures that were shown were; a lone fisherman who gets dumped into the water, a hurdle race, a girl and a child feeding a flock of pigeons and the Buffalo Express running at 60 miles per hour. When the Express appeared on the canvas, it was headed straight into the Opera House audience. Most of them either got up and ran or tried to duck under their chairs.
FIRST MOVIE THEATRE
The first Movie Theatre was also established in Wilmington in 1906. The theatre was named the "Bijou Theatre" located at 225 North Front Street. The two owners James Howard and P. W. Wells met by chance and decided to settle down in Wilmington. One of the men owned a tent and the other owned a projector. This was the start of the Howard & Wells Amusement Company.
A screen was set up and sawdust was sprinkled heavily on the ground and about 300 folding chairs were placed in the new facility. Later a framed front was constructed in order to stabilize the arrangement.
Wells ran the projector and Howard was the "Barker.” You could hear Howard all day long, "Never out, never over, always going on. Only high class moving pictures shown. Nothing cheap but the price, only five cents.”
