LET GO OF HATE AND HOSTILITY
Let go of hate and hostility and be mindful with your words, whether spoken or written.
Forgive each other so you don’t keep carrying old wounds. Holding onto past offenses only keeps anger alive.
Grudges are like rusted arrows to the soul.
Choose forgiveness.

THE TEST OF TRUE LEADERSHIP
Success can quietly feed our pride.
True leadership isn’t proven in prosperity, but in how we respond to adversity — with humility, courage, and faith.
Act justly, love faithfulness, and walk humbly with your God.

HUMILITY ISN’T WEAKNESS.
IT’S WHERE REPENTANCE BEGINS
