A TRIBUTE TO THE WOMAN OF G-D IN FRONT OF MY PEERS AND ASSOCIATES

Momma Sandra McDonald Landry:

It was about five years back (When Your Call Is Blocked was March 19, 2016) when I first met Arthur, but before then, he connected us about Redemptive Gifts.

So much has transpired since then, and in light of that reality, I wish to pen the following

Without you, I would have never started this journey into finding my design, and now I am helping others as a Mercy and a content writer do likewise.

I recognize I am at my best when nurturing others from the deep well of affection I have.

And Arthur was right about you that cold January morning in Ennis, TX about one thing.

“She who swears to her own hurt….”

I no plenty who people carry themselves after that fashion, but in orders of magnitude, you excel them all (though my wife does rightly give you a run for your money 😉).

It is an honor to see what the King has done with and in and through you, and to be honest, you were the #1 reason I came to Texas yesteryear.

It is a deep honor knowing what the King does with you in this season in you, and the seasons you have enjoyed, I bless your spirit the following ways

May your latter years be greater than your former years.

May your children the world over arise to bless you.

May you know an ease of flow that ushers you daily into the King’s presence.

May the community that encircles you be full of deep treasure worth the mining

May your hands continue to emulate the Hands of Kindness that were scarred for us.

And your joy, Prophet, specifically, be full.

May this year be a panorama of the Effulgence of the various shades of the King’s Light.

Be blessed, Mother Lightbearer, shining clear and broad with hope for those who have none.

Be at peace as you hear and see everything He has for you and your husband in this season as you and he elder many.

And may the occasion of your birthday surely be the best of times.

With kind affection,

David

Honor Is Meaningless If Dignity Does Not Lead…

Until we recognize the primacy of dignity,

AND that honor without regular reference to dignity is precluded from existence, we will never have an actual culture of honor. And the Holy Spirit will continue to be glaringly absent.

Dignity is what cures shame.


Dignity is inherent and must be recognized and celebrated in each person we meet.

We have mission statements that talk about honor and cultures of honor and apostolic this and prophetic that, and Danny Silk this and Bethel that, but until we heed the warnings and intentionally deal with the perennial LACK of actively and aggressively proclaiming the message of and breaking the anorexia of dignity endemic to the body of Christ, Honor will be a worthless pile of shit.

“Honor is for what you do. Dignity is for who you are.”

I see a whole lot of lip service given to honor, and comparitvely and vanishingly small is the attention given to dignity.

We must AGGRESSIVELY vocalize and actualize dignity.

And that is the only thing that will handle shame and put it in its place.

Just saying.
