SPRING FORTH NOW 2026

October 15

As God liveth, who hath taken away my judgment;

and the Almighty, who hath vexed my soul;

All the while my breath is in me,

and the spirit of God is in my nostrils;

My lips shall not speak wickedness,

nor my tongue utter deceit.

God forbid that I should justify you:

till I die I will not remove mine integrity from me.

Job 27:2-5

Never surrender your integrity just to make somebody else comfortable with your story. In Job 27:2–5 (KJV), Job refuses to speak falsely or abandon his innocence, even as he struggles to understand God's ways. Engaging In The Holy means remaining truthful when pressure tempts you to compromise your convictions. Living High And Lifted Up means rising without sacrificing the character that makes your elevation meaningful. Our Black communities grow stronger when we honor our truth, protect our dignity, and model integrity for generations to come. Dream Big, because your future should never require you to betray who you are. Decide To Become a person whose character outlasts every challenge, and Demonstrate Your Power by standing in your truth when compromise would be easier.
