Inspirational Nugget: Cameron Sterling, 15
Cameron Sterling was unfortunately thrust into the public eye when his dad, Alton Sterling, was fatally shot by police in front of a Baton Rouge gas station. Though his response was reasonably emotional during a press conference after Alton’s death, Cameron told the world that his dad’s life mattered. “I really want everyone to know, everyone nationwide, everyone in this world, to know that Alton Sterling was a good man,” Cameron said. “No matter what anyone else has to say about him, truly in my heart, I know he was a good dad.”

The Spirit of the Lord; Bind the Broken Hearted
Isaiah 61:1 Amplified …He has sent me to bind up [the wounds of] the brokenhearted…
This is our charge as believers as said “Ephesians 4:29 Amplified Do not let unwholesome [foul, profane, worthless, vulgar] words ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good for building up others, according to the need and the occasion, so that it will be a blessing to those who hear [you speak].”
Thus, we need to be cautious about the kind of words we speak because we carry the Spirit of the Living God, who is all wise and has all wisdom. How then, in the name of jokes, we talk anyhow, even against our elders, God’s elect, this is not and never Christian, we need to portray the Godliness in us by the words we speak.
The broken hearted should be comforted when they come to us, the crying should laugh when they come to us, the sick should be healed when they come to us.
Confession
In the Name of Jesus, I heal the broken hearted, amen!
