Love is patient. Lust can't wait and is impulsive.

Love is kind. Lust is cruel, critical, and manipulative.

Love does not envy. Lust seeks more than it earns.

Love does not boast. Lust serves self at the expense of others.

Love is not proud. Lust is easily threatened.

Love is not rude. Lust is disrespectful and thoughtless.

Love is not self-seeking. Lust is demanding and uncaring.

Love is not easily angered. Lust is temperamental and retaliatory.

Love keeps no records of wrongs. Lust does not forget offenses.

Love does not delight in evil. Lust commits wrong to get its own way and rationalizes it.

Love rejoices in the truth. Lust encourages lies and covers up misdeeds.

Love always protects. Lust takes for selfish gain and lacks concern for consequences to others.

Love always trusts. Lust is suspicious and jealous.

Love always hopes. Lust says one chance and you're out.

Love always perseveres. Lust retreats when it is no longer convenient.

Love never fails (it is constant, enduring, and faithful to the end). Lust ends when self is no longer served (it is fickle, insecure, and unfaithful).

God expects a lot out of us, but the good news is He never expects anything He doesn't first give us. He shows us mercy, then says, "Be merciful." He forgives us, then says, "Forgive others." He first makes us right with Him, then says, "Act right."

— Joyce Meyer

He was an activist who inspired millions to fight for their rights. He knew what was wrong with our country and risked his life to help his people achieve equality. In the society where black were treated like animal he did everything possible to change this. His brave soul, his will and courage changed the history of America , changed the people. He made us believe we can win this war. He payed for it with his life. He will always be remembered.

I was 17 years old and we took a bus to Chicago as part of the nccf to see chairman Fred and witness what the pigs had done. It was a plan they executed him and they executed Mark Clark. They have been attempting to murder them for more than a year and finally they got their chance. Black people lined up around the block 4 days to look at the crime scene and it was grizzly. members of the party pointed out all of the bullet holes and discuss the fact that Mark Clark only pulled the trigger of the shotgun as a reaction to being murdered which allow the police to rain down lead like a hurricane on the sleeping party members. Nothing was ever done about this murder scene and we are still waiting for black people to realize that this was a plan that they want to execute against each and every one of us. Either you stand your ground or you fall on it.

All power to the people

The world we live in treats prayer like a last resort. When things get rough, people pray like it is the very least they could do. But, in reality, prayer is more like the most we can do. Think about it—we’re calling upon the King of kings. We’re bringing our requests before Almighty God. Prayer is ineffably powerful and it shakes foundations and makes mountains crumble. It changes lives and softens hearts. Prayer is not a last resort. It should be a first priority. Because the One we’re praying to is more powerful than any of our human efforts. And He always listens.

Anybody wanna start a YouTube channel with me dedicated to Black independent living?

We can grow food Make natural products Show how to meal prep for a week Teach how to invest

I’m also interested in Black educators pooling together to build a curriculum that will either supplement education, or maybe we can replace it altogether.

Organizers! I need you. I’m going to go through this thread and hit yall up if you left a comment of interest. I will also be getting back to emails. (I been busy yall)

But I’m particularly looking for a dedicated hub base in Chicago. Videographers Film editors Sound and tech Grant writers Graphic designers Educators Writers

Anyone really who is down to getting a channel started and are willing to dedicate some time each week to meeting and curating videos.

Note, this is nonprofit work. Could it potentially pay, sure. But in my vision for this those funds are supporting the Black community. We’ll see where it goes. But this is not a for money, for fame thing. You really have to be invested and dedicated to helping people. This your tithes on being alive. K?

Email me at [email protected] if you are in Chicago and want to help.

Once everything is set up I will make a call for community submissions on the given topic. Thanks.

Remember I said I wanted to do this? Took some years but I won a pitch competition for it

And then bought and renovated a space. I want to use this business to help build brands that are sustainable and improve our community. I took the money and renovated a space

It has all these tools to help take business from concept to launch but it’s in Hammond, IN. I raised $15K of my own money for this. If I start an Indiegogo campaign will yall help me take this to the next level?

“Jesus told the story of the Prodigal Son to make a simple point: never mind what you’ve done, just come home.”

“A wealthy white guy, a middle class white guy, and a poor Black guy sit down at a dining table together. There’s a plate of 12 apples on the table, the wealthy white guy immediately grabs 11 of the apples and turns to the middle class white guy and says to him “Watch out, that Black guy’s trying to steal your apple.””

— The link between class & race and how racial resentment has been used to divide the white middle class and the Black/Latino working poor in America.

In November I started reading the Bible from the beginning. Today, I finished it, and I cried.

I finally see what it was all about. This whole story is about a God that won’t give up. There are ups and there are seriously downs but he never leaves.

If He never left mankind from Genesis to Revelation, I know that means he won’t leave me where I am. He is ever constant. Through misunderstanding, frustration, fear, and tragedy, He does not run away.

When you look at the Bible as a whole, you see it. You see the heart of a Father that says in your beginning I’ll be here, and no matter how you end, here I’ll be.

He hasn’t given up on us yet, and He doesn’t intend to start with you.

I have been here, multiple times! By referring to the order as a “Little Rosa”, you don’t have to make as big a deal out of the fact that you’re seeking help.

And believe it or not, it gets better. Rosa’s also gives out sweatshirts to the homeless (or sells them to the general public) that has information on local soup kitchens and even computer training in the area, on an insert sewn inside the sweatshirt.
