Quotes
[00:06:51] She and I are truly parallel in the work that we're doing in the world, and how we are helping people to really heal their hearts so that they can stay in alignment with who they are and who God wants them to be.
[00:13:37] I really, truly believe that true joy happens when you're on the track you were designed for. So, we get discontentment because we're just not in the right place, we're just not where we're supposed to be. We're trying to make something happen.
[00:16:08] As Brown people, we tend to feel like we need someone to tell us, just history has done that to us, you know, tell us which way to go, how to behave, how to look, how to fit into "what society is". And so, you can't fault our grandparents for the conditioning that they have, or the fear that they have when we decide we're breaking free of this. And we're just going to explore who we are and how we feel.
[00:29:58] All bodies of culture experience this fear of” what’s going to happen.” And so, it's not just contained to our home, it happens out there too. I know for me it has been leaning into and knowing that God did not create all the awful things that happen here. God did not create these systems and these structures, God did not create this fear, that is not of God, because to me - God is unconditional love.
[00:33:50] That bitterness comes from something, there's a root there. And when we're dealing with our heart wounds, if we find the fruit it will trace ourselves back to the root of that. And we can stop that fruit from growing, we can stop that bitterness from cycling over and over and passing down to our children and be free from that.
[00:55:41] But I've learned that I have to forgive myself for yesterday's me, the things I did with the tools I had, and the understanding that I had. I have to let go and grow into what God is calling me to do, and to be able to walk that track that it was designed for me.
