“What I learned in S.W.A.G!”

“I’m always wrong when I say how I feel, even when I am right! I feel like a damn robot programmed to only take care of my wife, my kids, my siblings and my job, but [expletive] myself and how I feel! Real talk I feel better off dead!”

“We must get back to developing character and modeling what it looks like lived!” — Mr Jason Wilson

It’s deep how life comes full circle at times. I met this brother Sierra in 1991 when I was trying to get in shape. Little did I know that the Most High crossed our paths so that I could build my spiritual “muscles.” Sierra was not only a trainer at a national chain gym but a man of God—and later I discovered he was married to my good friend from high school, Youlanda. Sierra was a strong influence in my life and we became close friends.

I was prompted by the Most High to share this brief word of encouragement with those who are discouraged by where they are in their lives—knowing Yah has more in store for their lives. Embrace the place where you are, so that you can learn what’s needed for where you are going!
