Be the Difference

Small victories matter! Make sure you celebrate your progress on the way to the prize!

“Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11:28-30‬

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:16‬ ‭

Fear is paralyzing. Faith pushes you to action! Don't be paralyzed by fear. Trust God's instructions, obey them and move in faith. Choosing to live in faith gives God the glory He deserves!

In a world bombarded by negativity and death, choose to speak life!

October 10th is World Mental Health Day. Mental Health has become a hot topic especially over the past year for many reasons. It's so important that we remember to invest in our Mental Health daily because our Mental Health Matters!

God is intentional about blessing you. Be sure that you are intentional about being a blessing to others and lift as you climb!

Proverbs 13:20 says: “Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble.” You eventually become who you surround yourself with. Don't surround yourself with people who are comfortable with being stagnant. Surround yourself with people who are intentional about growing in every area of their lives.

Never let anyone talk down to you because you're young. You have the power to be the difference your community and change the world!

In this face paced world it's easy to become impatient with yourself when it comes to accomplishing your goals. My good friend Sheila and I discuss the importance of patience and progress in the process of achieving your goals. Stay the course! Your time is coming!

You have something this world needs. You're not here on accident. You're here on purpose!

There's only one you! Don't be afraid to be your authentic self. When you're true to who God created you to be great things happen!

I had the privilege of talking with Dr. David L. Reed, a history professor at Bowie State University, about how we can empower our communities in the area of education.

The great educator Booker T. Washington said " If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else". In the times we're living in today, it's important that we uplift one another and encourage each other to be the difference in our communities.

2020 made a lot of us stronger! Let's continue to persevere and be the difference in 2021.
