Some things I got from @PastorMikeJr today that spoke to me:
“The enemy can't stop God from blessing you so he attacks your memory, your focus, and your perspective to keep you from seing what God already did.”
“If we don’t heal what hurt us, we will normalize what numbed us.”
“We do not need something to happen to show gratitude towards the Lord.”
“Stop rushing from the answered prayer to the next problem. Your body is blessed while your mind is blank.”
AMEN! 🙏🏽
Jayden and his former classmate returned to their Alma Mater to award students with scholarships. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that he would attend both of my Alma Maters, PBL and FAMU. I’m proud to see him make positive contributions to both!

Want to lead? Stop being “nice".
Kind leaders are honest, even when it’s uncomfortable.

“Nice” leadership holds people back, here’s why:
Too many leaders mistake being nice for being kind.
Being "nice" doesn’t solve problems.
It doesn’t build trust or push people to grow.
It simply avoids conflict, leaving issues unresolved.
Think about a time when your leader was just "nice." They:
Avoided conflict
Ignored problems
Sugarcoated feedback
Maybe it felt good at first, but did you really grow from it?
Being kind is different.
Leadership isn’t a popularity contest.
It’s about creating a space where people feel:
Challenged
Supported
Trusted
Kindness does that.
Niceness doesn’t.
