Real Life Real Faith Women Walking By Faith March/April 2016 | Page 13
We have the opportunity to model goodness and trail blaze paths for those who are
coming behind us. We have the opportunity to leave legacies that could be life
changing. We don’t have the luxury of turning our backs on our responsibility of fighting
for those who follow us. There has to be an example for them to follow, there has to be
something for them to look back on and say, someone fought for us to have the
opportunities we have today. If we stop, if we give up, if we don’t pay attention, we harm
the path of those who are on it.
Where or our today models of Coretta Scott King, Rosa Parks, Shirley Chisholm, Harriet
Tubman, Angela Davis, Josephine Baker, Ruby Dee, Lorraine Hansberry, Billie Holiday,
Lena Horne, Zora Neale Hurston, Barbara Jordan, Wilma Rudolph, Sojourner Truth? I
believe we exist for a divine purpose, the reason that this question may be arising is
because there are so many things in today’s society competing with the importance of
the paths we create. There are many in the world today doing some amazing things,
unfortunately we don’t always get to know about those who are working extremely hard
to pave a way for our youth to follow.
Does this mean we stop, no we may not be aware of all the amazing women putting forth
memories God would be pleased with, but someone on each of your paths is shown an
example that could change their lives in your corner of the world. Thank you, you are
appreciated and I give honor to you for all that you do!!!
Model Goodness. . . It’s our mandate!!!
