The question kept coming up…

So I figured I’d answer it like this.

Everything was good…
until what didn’t belong… got access.
Be careful what you let in.

Everybody in your circle can’t just make you comfortable… somebody gotta make you BETTER. 👀

And before you start looking around trying to figure out who the butter knife is…

CHECK YOU TOO. 😭😂

Because iron sharpens iron.

So the question is… WHAT ARE Y’ALL SHARPENING?!

Proverbs 27:17 🫴🏾

Being understanding does NOT mean I’m about to keep understanding the SAME foolishness! 😭

LIKE… HOW MANY TIMES WE GOTTA GO OVER THIS?!

I’m cool, but PLEASE don’t get comfortable playing in my face. 😂

RECESS IS OVER! 🛝

Being an adult is really just checking stuff, forgetting stuff, paying stuff and saying “that’s crazy.” 😭

GEORGE JEFFERSON MOVED ON UP… BUT HIS ATTITUDE WAS STILL DOWNSTAIRS! 😭😭😭

DAWG… THE MAN HAD MONEY, A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS, AND A DELUXE APARTMENT IN THE SKY!

BUT THANK GOD FOR WEEZY AND FLORENCE! 😂

Because George had the MONEY.
Louise had the PERSPECTIVE.
And Florence had the AUDACITY! 😭

But here’s the HOLD…

You can change your ADDRESS without changing your ATTITUDE.

You can increase your INCOME without increasing your MATURITY.

And you can accomplish everything you prayed for… AND STILL HAVE SOME GROWING UP TO DO!

THE GOAL ISN’T JUST TO MOVE ON UP… IT’S TO BECOME SOMEBODY WHO CAN HANDLE BEING UP THERE!

📖 Ephesians 4:22–24 | Proverbs 27:6 | Philippians 2:3

HOLD THAT! 🫴🏾🫴🏾🫴🏾

THREE COWS WENT BOUNTY HUNTING TO SAVE A FARM?! 😭🐄

But WAIT… there’s something about Home on the Range that we NEED to talk about!

Maggie knew what it felt like to LOSE something, so she fought to help somebody else KEEP theirs.

And Grace? The very thing that made her DIFFERENT became something the others NEEDED!

JUST BECAUSE YOU SURVIVED IT DOESN’T MEAN SOMEBODY ELSE SHOULD HAVE TO!

And just because you don’t function like everybody else doesn’t mean you have nothing to contribute!

Your experiences have VALUE.
Your differences have PURPOSE.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THE SAME TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

📖 Galatians 6:2 | 1 Corinthians 12:22 (NIV)

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE AGGIELAND! 💙💛

The food was secured. Now about that life me and God been talking about… 😭🫴🏾 by @draydams

BOP IT! TWIST IT! PULL IT! 😭 @hasbro

Life really be testing you with the SAME situations at DIFFERENT speeds!

And just because you handled something well LAST TIME doesn’t mean you won’t have to practice that self-control AGAIN!

Everybody wants a reaction… BUT EVERYBODY DOESN’T DESERVE ONE!

Sometimes growth looks like knowing when to RESPOND, when to WAIT, and when to KEEP YOUR MOUTH CLOSED! 😭

Galatians 5:22–23 reminds us that SELF-CONTROL is a fruit of the Spirit!

JUST BECAUSE SOMEBODY PUSHED YOUR BUTTONS DOESN’T MEAN YOU HAVE TO PERFORM ON COMMAND!
