SPRING FORTH NOW 2026

March 7

And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

I Corinthians 15:49-58

Family, hear this: your future is bigger than the form you’re living in right now. I Corinthians 15:49–58 (KJV) declares that just as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. To Transcend is to live with the confidence that corruption does not get the final word over your calling. There is a destiny High And Lifted Up, where mortality gives way to glory and struggle gives way to strength. For Black people whose story has always carried both burden and brilliance, this promise speaks with power—our labor is not wasted, and our rising is not accidental. Death, defeat, and limitation do not have the last line in the script God is writing. So stay steadfast, keep building with courage, and pour your heart into the work of the Lord, knowing that every faithful step echoes into eternity.
