KOMMONSENTSJANE – Pausing To Pray, Sharing Dr. Ben Carson’s 2026 Prayer For Our Country.

Posted on January 16, 2026 by kommonsentsjane

01/16/2026

Dear Joyce M,

As we step into 2026, I find myself doing what I have always believed is most important at moments like this—pausing to pray.

This year carries special weight. America turns 250, a milestone that invites both gratitude and humility. For all our imperfections, we have been blessed beyond measure as a nation. And yet, anniversaries are not just about celebrating where we’ve been—they are about deciding who we will be.

My prayer for 2026 is simple, but earnest.

I pray that we would return to wisdom over noise, conviction over convenience, and faith over fear. I pray that leaders would govern with humility, families would be strengthened, and that personal responsibility would once again be recognized as a pillar of a healthy society.

I also pray for people like you.

Those who care enough to stay engaged. Those who believe America’s best days are still ahead of us when we anchor ourselves in enduring truths. Those who quietly, faithfully support work that seeks to bring clarity, not chaos, into the public square.

I also ask for your prayers for a project that is especially close to my heart.

Right now, the American Cornerstone Institute is producing a new children’s film—one designed to communicate timeless truths in a way young hearts and minds can understand. In a culture that too often confuses and misleads, our children need stories that point them toward truth, courage, and hope.

Would you join me in praying that this project moves forward according to God’s will? That the right doors would open, the necessary resources would be provided, and that this film would ultimately reach children who need a clear and life-giving foundation.

At the American Cornerstone Institute, that has been our commitment from the beginning—to elevate thoughtful, principled voices rooted in faith, freedom, and responsibility. As this historic year unfolds, I’m deeply grateful to know we are not standing alone.

Thank you for being part of this work, and for the many ways—seen and unseen—you strengthen it. As we look ahead to all that 2026 holds, please know that you are in my prayers.

May God bless you, your family, and our nation in the year ahead.

With gratitude,

Dr. Ben Carson
Founder and Chairman
American Cornerstone Institute

Thank you, Dr. Carson.

KOMMONSENTSJANE – The Courage That Still Moves A Nation.

Posted on January 16, 2026 by kommonsentsjane

The following is a characterization of my life and the black folks who were instrumental in my life. For many years we employed Polly, who was the keeper of our home cleaning and the other person was Edgar who maintained our lawn. My husband and I both worked 12-hour days at a large company. In addition to them – we also employed a Greek woman name Aunt Maggie, who was the caretaker of our son. The cooperation of those three people was such a pleasure that we never worried when we were working.

Our and their success depended on them. Their cooperation made it so successful even to the extent when we purchased a new car, Edgar, always was asked if he wanted to purchase our car at trade in price. If we replaced anything we asked if any one of them wanted it. We treated them like family.

What a wonderful group we had and thank God for bringing them to this place in our life.

Pastor James David Manning On Black Folk

Dr. Manning brought me to a new chapter in my life explaining how he sees life.

01/16/2026

King insisted we all have an amazing potential for good, that there exists in each of us a natural identification with every other human being, and that if we diminish others, we diminish ourselves.

EDITOR’S NOTE
In observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, U.S. markets – and our offices – are closed on Monday. We’ll be back on Tuesday with our regular publishing schedule.In the meantime, we wanted to reshare this timeless reflection from Alexander Green honoring Dr. King’s life and legacy. In an era marked by division, uncertainty, and noise, Dr. King’s moral clarity, courage, and commitment to peaceful change feel as essential as ever. We hope you’ll take a few moments today to reflect on his words, his actions, and the example he set – not just for his generation, but for all of us.- Nicole Labra, Senior Managing Editor
The Courage That Still Moves a Nation

Alexander Green, Chief Investment Strategist, The Oxford Club
On the morning of April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. slept late. In the afternoon, he joked with his companions, taunting them into a pillow fight in his motel room.An hour later, he stepped onto the balcony of his room and paused a second, debating inwardly whether to take a jacket.Somewhere off to his right, James Earl Ray brought the crosshairs of his rifle sights onto King’s neck and squeezed the trigger.It was the end of a life… and the beginning of a powerful legacy.

This week millions of Americans will pause to remember and celebrate the life and achievements of Martin Luther King Jr., the 20th century’s most influential civil rights activist.King spoke passionately, wrote persuasively, and led countless marches and sit-ins, crying out for justice for oppressed minorities in the United States.

In 1963, he was Time magazine’s Man of the Year. The following year, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize at 35, the youngest Peace Prize winner ever.In 1977, he was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor
Like Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln, King was unequivocally the right man in the right place at the right time. It wasn’t just that Blacks were systematically denied equal rights and opportunities. There were the daily humiliations as well.As a boy in the Deep South, King was regularly shooed away from white stores, white restaurants, white bathrooms, even white water fountains.

On a long return bus trip from a debating contest, he and his teacher were told to stand so that white passengers could sit.In a downtown department store, a matron once slapped him, complaining, “The little n—– stepped on my foot!”King later recounted that he became determined to hate every white person. But his father, a Christian minister, taught him otherwise. (Though he too chafed at the indignities.)When his father was stopped by a traffic policeman who addressed him as “boy,” the senior King pointed to Martin on the seat beside him and snapped, “That’s a boy. I’m a man.”On another occasion, the two were told by a shoe clerk that Black people could be served only in the rear of the store. His father grabbed the boy’s hand. “We’ll either buy shoes sitting here or we won’t buy any shoes at all.”

America was two societies, separate but unequal.Yet King became convinced that racial hatreds were driven not by individual convictions but by attitudes deeply ingrained in society. He made it his mission to change those attitudes. And he insisted it could only be done without violence.His commitment to peaceful change came from three primary sources.The first was the Gospel. The second was Henry David Thoreau’s theory of nonviolence, famously articulated in his essay “Civil Disobedience.” The third was the nonviolent thoughts and actions of Mohandas Gandhi with his strikes, boycotts and mass marches against British colonial rule.

Following these examples, King urged his followers to stand up to taunts, threats and harassment – not to mention clubs, police dogs and water cannons – with peaceful resistance. It wasn’t easy.One evening, a bomb exploded on the front porch of his house, wrecking the front parlor. King rushed home to find his wife, Coretta, and their infant daughter safe in a back room.The street and his yard were quickly filled with more than 300 angry Blacks, many armed with guns and knives.Sirens wailed. Skirmishes broke out with police. Reporters and onlookers pressed in, adding to the pandemonium.Yet standing on the shattered glass and rubble of his front porch,

King raised his hand and shouted, “We are not advocating violence! We must love our white brothers no matter what they do to us. Love them, and let them know you love them.”To King, forgiveness was not an occasional act. It was a permanent attitude.Today he is best recognized for his civil rights activism. But the Baptist minister really fought for something more. His goal was nothing less than the moral reconstruction of American society.He became an outspoken opponent of the war in Vietnam. Blacks were disproportionately serving and dying in the conflict and, in a television interview, Mike Douglas asked King whether his opposition to the war might be misinterpreted.King replied that he hoped not, since he opposed any American fighting and dying in a senseless war.Watching film clips of Dr. King, I marveled again at his courage and intellect, his calm demeanor, his sense of hope.King insisted we all have an amazing potential for good, that there exists in each of us a natural identification with every other human being, and that if we diminish others, we diminish ourselves.

Enjoy the day… and celebrate the man,

Alex

History will always follow the man who is trying to improve our country and its weaknesses.

Thank you, Alex

Wonder how this works with government employee buying stock on work time? No wonder we couldn’t get things done when she was in charge.
