The Block is Hot...Marching into Destiny
To be Black, free,and able to move about the cabin without fear . What will that take? In this new movement the tired and weary have nothing more to lose. They are taking it to the streets to hit the system in places where they can’t be blissfully unaware any longer . When you get to the point where you are willing to gamble everything, because fear and respectability have gone out the window. It’s game on.
This is a special moment in time and I know that people are being activated to walk in destiny. We are being charged up to walk in who we are called be.
Especially, when I think back to how popular “The Purpose Driven Life” book was across the board. The shows on OWN have engaged, centered and focused many of us on having public conversations on purpose and justice. Joel Osteen being blessed to purchase a basketball stadium…not just for church but training grounds. Bishop Jakes latest books on Instinct , Destiny, and he’s building a multi-million dollar facility for youth. Back in the day the chruch was at the forefront of the movement. This things are not for not…Right now we have awesome Black, queer, women and others leading but it’s always been that way. This is a time for unity on such a large scale across identies to work for the greater good.
The search and hunger for purpose has been great and the previously mentioned teachers have been preparing many to walk in their purpose through their work. Teaching and showing and demonstrating how finally reaching your breaking point thrust you into who you were meant to be and into action. To leave behind the old and walk in the new. It was diamond training.
We were awakened and put on to game for such a time as this. To change the scope and focus of our national conversations and the landscape in a real and authentic way. Certain people have been ringing the alarm advocating for people to find their worth, truth, and identity in others so that they can change tide. To paraphrase Tupac…he said, I might not change the world but I’ll guarantee you that I’ll light the spark in someone who does. Here, we are today with people no longer willing to get bullied without putting up a fight.
The loss of innocent lives has lit the match and the people have stepped up to the plate. In this situation David see’s and knows Goliath’s tactics, because of history and legends of the past helping upfront and behind the scenes.
People are waiting to get their marching orders ,because this battle is so layered and requires killing deep generational roots. The first line of warriors are on the front lines of the battlefield ,because of those that have been martyred. It will not be in vain! Others who are sensitive are waiting to get called up feel the stirring on a deeper level. These people have been prepared by life…to lead, to make their mess their message, so they can train the troops…love on them into wellness. I…we have to pour into the broken and even broke / broken parts of ourselves to help heal and march forward.
Nothing you’ve gone through will be wasted. It has all been to get you to this destiny place. Our true identities had to be restored and believed by us in order to move forward. The breaking and the shaking got us here.. that’s why the block is hot…However, the real question is are you ready to march forward?
