Black man still out "there", Please, just get off the block. You'll never win in that game, So please, just stop. You're going to just go under, If that's the way you view the top. Your homies aren't all your homies; Some are flipping, to make you flop. Can I be honest? Sometimes, YOU is all you got. If you have God on your side, Believe me, that's a lot. Make the streets look empty. Make the block real clean. Make the suppliers lack demand. And the dope fiends get clean. Stop tearing down your own people Your own families, your own dreams...

Philippians 2:4 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Leadership is more than just being in charge. It’s also being responsible, accountable, reliable, relatable and an integral part of a team. I once read that leadership is sacrifice, not privilege. I agree! It’s about truly serving others. These traits are fruit of Godliness. True leaders follow/are led by God. They are visionaries and strategist. There must be effective plans and strategies in pla...

It seems like just yesterday we were eating Thanksgiving food and now with a blink of the eye, Christmas approaching. Now that the year is ending, I felt like it was relevant to write about the season. This year, I think the main goal that life has taught us all is to be thankful and find joy in the small things. This year has taught me many things about life that I wasn’t prepared to know. Personally speaking, I’m proud of the things that this year has put me through because of how I’ve overc...

As Christmas approaches, I often think about Jesus' mother, Mary, and all she had to endure to bring Him into this world. She was first visited by the angel Gabriel who told her her fate. She then had to share the news with her husband and endure scrutiny from her community for what they perceived happened. Instead of having the comfort she deserved, she gave birth in a manger, and she, Joseph, and Jesus lived a regular, humble life. Despite all she inherited, she didn't waiver in her faith, teaching her husband and community how to trust in...
Hello everyone! This week I will be discussing mid-terms. This is my first-time having mid-terms, so I'm pretty nervous, but I will be giving you all tips on how to prepare yourself for mid-terms. 1.

Job 38:22-23 Copyright 2012 Since our tears have been revealed, as the water that is spilled, from raining and leaking eyes When our soul has been broken, and no words can be spoken, that will give peace to a soul that’s tired. I wonder how God would express, the pain that’s in His chest, when He looks down on this earth That He loved to the extent, that His only son was sent, to pay a price that no man is worth. Whenever the Lord cries, the clouds become His eyes, and the rain is the tears He sheds Trying to cleanse this world of filth, tha...
Last month controversy in pop culture surfaced after artist Chris Brown was axed from performing at this year's American Music Awards (AMAs). The R&B star was working on a performance for the show that would pay tribute to Michael Jackson in celebration of the 40th anniversary of his famed Thriller album. Chris' talent and stardom have been highly compared to MJ's and, in recent months, even sparked many debates among fans and critics. The comparisons set the perfect stage (pun intended) for Chris Brown to put on yet another stellar awards...
Psalms 30:5 | NKJV For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Oh, Beloved be exceedingly glad because it is MORNING TIME. You have been given safe passage thru the night watches. The morning Light now breaks forth as the early Dawn. Darkness quickly recedes as a new day begins. A new opportunity and another chance lie upon the early dew. A fresh breeze of Hope and Optimism glides gently among the trees and bushes as...

A strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept. For some, it takes a while to find your passion and that’s perfectly okay. Personally, I’ve been struggling lately to figure out what my passion is and how to find it. I’ll be going off to college soon, and I don’t have any idea what my passion is. However, I stumbled upon a quote recently that read: “If you’re contemplating on finishing something or doing something because of how long it’ll take, remember, you...

Like many of you, when I am in trouble, I call upon the Lord. And, it was during a time of crisis in my life that He inspired me with this "joint" that I wanted to "pass" on to y'all. It is my prayer that we are reminded that God should not be used as an ATM machine that we run to ONLY when we are in a crisis or in need of a blessing. When we reflect upon what He has already done and continues to do in our lives, we will usually find the answers we are seeking to solve our present situation. Mos...

Watching the movie, The Preacher’s Wife is a holiday tradition that I have for myself. It is themed around Christmas time, so it is appropriate for this time of year. The movie is set in New York City and features an all-star cast featuring Denzel Washington, Whitney Houston, Courtney B. Vance, Loretta Divine, and Gregory Hines. The movie tells the story of a pastor, Reverend Henry Biggs, leading his struggling church and additional issues that arise when serving as a leader of a church congregation in a predominately Black community.

I love fresh squeezed orange juice. Each Christmas my parrain would gift my brothers and me a large box of fresh oranges and apples. As young kids, we didn't always appreciate getting fruit on a holiday for extravagant gifts, but as the years passed, we sincerely appreciated our parrain's thoughtful kindness and consistency. I would use those oranges to make fresh squeezed orange juice. I would cut them in halves and use a glass juicer to extract the juice. The oranges were so sweet, and the juice was so good! I would drink about 4 ounces at a...
We all look forward to the future but are not prepared for the future. Last weekend, I had the opportunity to attend Grambling State University for their high school day and it made me realize that growing up is something I'm not ready for yet. I've done the necessary preparations, such as taking the ACT, looking into majors, etc., but I'm not prepared for growing up and being on my own. I think this realization may be true for many of us, but we're scared to admit to it. Growing up, I was used...
