Feature Friday

I am so excited that we have been blessed to see another Black History Month! It’s imperative that we not forget the many African Americans that came before us and were an essential part of American history. As we celebrate Black History Month, Saved M.O.M. will feature African American Women whom played significant roles in the progression of American History, every Friday this month.

This Friday I am doing things a little differently. I sat for what seemed like several hours today trying to figure out who I would spotlight this week. After much research and praying it finally hit me. I came to the realization that there are so many women that have played an important role in Black History, so why single out just one for this week? When in doubt, don’t try to figure it out! Just go with the flow… So, in going with the flow I want to direct you all to a web link that will give you an opportunity to read about many Notable African American Women.

Take some time to learn more about our history by visiting http://womenshistory.about.com/od/africanamerican/a/black_women.htm. There is so much wisdom to be gained in learning about the past. Take time out of your busy schedule to speak with an elder about things of old. I’m sure they would love to have a listening ear as they share their stories with you. The Word tells us, “Remember the days of old; consider the generations long past. Ask your father and he will tell you, your elders, and they will explain to you.” (Deuteronomy 32:7). Let’s not forget the people that paved the way!

Until our next appointed meeting time. Stay tuned for more words of encouragement and inspiration for M.O.M.’s near and far! Please share this blog with as many people as you know (http://www.savedmom.com/), we have so many lives to touch.
