Something is always trying to keep us broken, small, helpless and without hope. All the while, we live in a world that seems to be well orchestrated to keep people from shooting upward and going forward. This concept is called gravity. It is the idea that is disguised to make you think that a height meant for you cannot be attained because there are limiting forces all around.

“We are in the world, but not of it.” “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Can you remember these truths? Bet you can. These truths should mean that we are not allowing the world around us to trick us into believing that we share the same illnesses, misfortunes, failures and disadvantages. It should mean that we are refusing to buy the narrative that we all will live life from a weak and broken perspective?

If we are in the world but not of it, it means that we do not share in the maladies of this world. So When They See Us, they see us bringing the realities of our promises into the world that we live in. When they see us, they see us Defy Gravity.
