Meditation: Hope Is Delayed But The Will To Overcome Adversity Is Life


Garnett Street SW  -  Atlanta, Georgia  August  of  2025

God gives you signs in life that you will prosper,  but you must seek them to find them.

You know, over the years many people have walked on this particular street seen above in Atlanta, Georgia or even cross the path in the day or night feeling some kind of way going to City court.   But,  look ahead and see the back of the huge bulletin board.  Perhaps, millions of people riding in various types of vehicles have seen the front end of this particular advertisement sign while reading it in English with thoughts of flying in an aircraft.  In this discussion, it is used as a metaphor.  A metaphor or figurative expressions that describe one thing as if it were something else.


How does any of those things apply to a person or family that have no particular place to live or lay down to sleep at night?  Perhaps, I can not answer that question quite right for anybody or everyone.


Nevertheless, this morning Thursday, September 18th 2025 at 6:05 am EST, via phone near Atlanta, Georgia.  I was asked to give a Meditation before the prayer session.  Prayer changes things.

Dr. Christopher Parker - Steward and Reverend Charmaine Purvis  - Associate Minister of Big Bethel AME Church asked me to give a Meditation with a Scripture via Telephone from the Holy Bible of the King James Version.


I was reluctant and felt prior to this experience, unworthy.  However, I perform the task guided by the Holy Spirit.  Plus, it was if my late Father, Marion Lewis Adams, Sr. - also present guiding me to Proverbs Chapter 13 Verse 12.

" Hope deferred makes the heart sick. But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life."

Meditation is a practice of getting the mind to achieve a state of calmness, focus and awareness.  Once I entered this realm of calmness, focus and awareness, I prayed and mentioned families who were themselves descendants of Gullah Geechee People & Cherokee / Creek People.

I recalled, being told that prayers said hundreds to thousands of years ago about you ( the person, whoever you are ... will be meant for you today in modern times.)

Then, the reason why I was compelled to photography the back of the billboard was answered.  Hope is delayed to allow an individual or people to overcome adversity in life.  Wait on the Lord and be of good courage.  If you have seen the billboard, you know the answer to the metaphor,  believe it to receive the good things in one life.

God gives you signs in life that you will prosper,  but you must seek them to find them.

Well, that is what we were thinking?  What are your thoughts on this matter at hand?
