Rise Up

Rise Up
Rise up to the blessing of another day. To all that awaits you this moment. To all that will challenge you and enlighten you. Rise up to the opportunity to live in your truth and appreciate the truth of others. To make a difference and matter to those in your path and to those you never noticed. Be awakened by the joys of opportunities both sought after and placed before you. Rise up to the choices that you have the freedom to make and take delight in being the vessel to enforce them. Embrace your beauty, your strength, and most importantly, your flaws. Be courageous when faced with adversity and smile when you’ve conquered the impossible. Rise up to your fears and shortcomings and face them with the belief that you are not the only one; you are never alone. There is so much turmoil in the world today. Be that small ripple in the water that becomes the huge wave of hope and positive change. Be that spark that ignites into a blaze of restoration. Rise up to the responsibility of reminding our youth that they are royalty and should conduct themselves as such. With the dignity and respect which is needed to be a part of resolutions and not part of our demise. Although life has a way to often break us down, we must rise up to the realities of our destiny. We cannot be broken. Our spirit cannot waiver. Our souls have been fortified with ancestry that embodied perseverance, power, and the will to praise God. RISE UP KINGS RISE UP QUEENS We are backed by our foundation of greatness and all that we are facing in the world today is our foundation of inspiration and purpose.
We must be inspired every day to simply and deliberately RISE UP!
