🗣 FOR PPL OF ALL RACES: “10 Action Steps FORWARD‼️”

Many people feel helpless, while others feel ashamed right now.

History will repeat itself if we FAIL to recognize Our role to play❗️

**Anger alone & Silence alone have NOT changed anything.

HEREIN LIES THE SOLUTION...

1: Admit that we ALL have BIAS!✅

2: Become INTENTIONAL about identifying YOUR Bias!✅

3: DIVERSIFY your Circle (w/ diverse perspectives, experiences, backgrounds)!✅

4: EXAMINE your Bias w/ others OUTSIDE of your Circle!✅

5: Identify WHO SUFFERS as a result of your Bias!✅

6: ADVOCATE for those who suffer due to your Bias!✅

7: ALWAYS SPEAK UP for those who suffer due to your Bias!✅

8: REFUSE to Reach judgment w/o Genuine examination of ALTERNATE views!✅

9: DO NOT BE COMPLICIT by prioritizing Comfort!✅

10: GET FED UP w/ Business as Usual!✅

Finally, Let us Remember the world we leave for our children Relies on Our Actions (or Inaction), TODAY❗️

Many stand Divided, but we Agree that... We ALL NEED “preservation & deliverance from harm, ruin, or loss” RIGHT NOW❗️

To WIN this battle we must RECOGNIZE that only GRACE can UNIFY opposing forces of ANGER & DESPERATION for CHANGE‼️...

JUSTICE may only PARTIALLY treat the signs & symptoms of RACISM, but GRACE gives us the POWER to CHANGE.

So, WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR REAL PROGRESS⁉️
👉🏾Here it is:

*HUMILITY ==> *GRACE ==> *SALVATION (aka “preservation from harm, ruin, loss”) ...

•HUMILITY will lead us to Prayer (giving God our desperation 🙏🏾), causing us to CHANGE our WAYS. Humility ==> GRACE 🔥

•GRACE gives us the POWER to CHANGE & Strengthens our Weaknesses. Grace ==> SALVATION 🔥

•SALVATION = “PRESERVATION from Harm, ruin, & loss.” ...

•SALVATION = “DELIVERANCE from SIN & it’s CONSEQUENCES.”

“So, How do we move Forward & see REAL CHANGE⁉️”

👉🏾Pray for Humility, Pray for Grace, & Pray for Salvation thru FAITH in JESUS! 🙏🏾 ...

“If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14 ESV

God is Love. 🖤
