Look for the Beauty

“Despite the wretched conditions humankind continuously faces, I believe in the beauty that is, and it is my scholarly and pastoral duty to pursue and find it.” - JoAnne Marie Terrell

What we seek is what we tend to find. What we focus on is what we tend to see. What we share is what we tend to experience. And what and how we think determines who we become. These are universals.

So, it is critical for us to attune our ears to hear the music, and our eyes to see the beauty. We must direct our minds to look for possibilities and opportunities and our tongues to words that heal and encourage.

“… Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” (Philippians 4:8) And live your life accordingly.

“I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against" - Malcolm X

Blood may be thicker than water, but truth and justice must be thicker still.

It’s good to do for our family and friends, but not if doing so means wronging someone else’s family and friends.

It’s good to work for the wellbeing of our neighbors and communities, our states and nations, but not if we forget that we are part of a larger global community.

The earliest Christians believed that they were baptized into union with each other in Christ. The divisions of race and religion, class, social status, and gender identity were no more. (Galatians 3:28)

If we aren’t standing on the side of truth and justice, righteousness and wellbeing, we are standing on the wrong side.

I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.

Nothing Can Separate Us from the Love of God

“And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.” - Romans 8:38-39

"We are going to emancipate ourselves from mental slavery because whilst others might free the body, none but ourselves can free the mind.” - Marcus Garvey

What do we need to free ourselves from? Has our lack of knowledge and understanding of how we arrived at our current situation caused us internalize lies about our lack of character?

Do we need to release the burden of the anger, resentment, and pain of the wrongs done or being done- the anger, resentment, and pain that keep us prisoners of the moment and hinder us from moving into the future.

Are we prisoners of our guilt and shame? Acknowledge the mistakes of the past. Learn from them. Make amends if you can. Pay it forward if you can’t. But free yourself and let them go.

What limiting false assumptions do we need to let go?

We have to emancipate our hearts and minds.

Do What You Can. Start Now.

“If you and your friends do not despise the small work, a million people will remove a lot of suffering” - Chan Khong

"You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them” - Maya Angelou

When I think of Angelou’s words, I think of a verse I frequently heard quoted at church growing up: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life,and have it to the full. (John 10:10)”

I believe the number one thing the thief tries to steal from us is our dignity and our self respect. It tries to make us feel less than. It wants to make us believe that we aren’t anything, never have been anything, and never will be anything.

We must refuse to surrender to our circumstances. We refuse to be twisted by racism, sexism, classism, and any other “ism” that tries to keep us in our so called place.

We resist in part by striving to become our best, fullest, most complete selves. We resist by making positive contributions to the world around us. We resist in part by making the most of whatever opportunities are in front of us.

We resist by never allowing ourselves to be diminished by our circumstances.
