Today, for the first time ever, I wrote to my district's council member asking that they increase the grant pool for the non-profit arts organizations in Duval County. It's a small gesture, but I'm determined to do more.
It's crazy. I was never interested in politics because I heard, "Politicians are all crooked." "We should be pushing Christ's mission not promoting political agendas." I never realized how important it is to be a Christian who's politically active (seeks social justice).
As believers, being "in the world and not of the world" does not mean we shouldn't care for the world. It means that we should actively see and reach the world with the mind of Christ.

This little light of mine, I want to let it shine but there are ill winds that blow no good that daily seek to snuff it out. Seeking God to be my windscreen.
I've come to realize it's less about how big your dreams are and more about how strong your faith is.

Stop calling your churches refuges or your God a refuge if you dehumanize refugees.
Stop singing songs about adoption & being a child of God if you can’t extend the same grace to immigrants & asylees.
The church’s hypocrisy is evident in the disconnect of our rhetoric & praxis.
Let me tell you! When you start to look at things through God's eyes, even the bad news becomes good news cuz you know it still fits into God's perfect plan!
Added to the bucket list: Go to #EssenceFest with a squad of black, beautiful, brainy, and born again sisters...and or host one of the events.
Pain can turn saints into cynics. It suffocates like a scarf wrapped too tight. One must learn to wear the glasses of gratitude in order to see through it.
I get on a plane in two weeks and I pray to God I get to sit next to a #planebae. Can I pick? I pick @rubey_lcheek 😬🙏🏾⚽️ xitter.gq/roseybeeme/status/1014…
Why we gotta be so extra in the hood?! These fireworks right outside my window for the last hour got me feeling like I gotta duck and cover every 5 seconds.😒
