Where Do The Great Come From?

Often times we are faced with challenges and struggles that make the day to day functioning an up hill climb. However our desire to function above and beyond causes us to look at the depths of this life to see from where do the true leaders arise. They are not coming from Churches that are just looking for a pastor. It is not from the political arena that may be wanting someone to fill a political position. Nooo. The real leaders arise from within the struggle. They come from within the conflict. They come from within the adversity carrying with them the seed of equivalent success.

Those are the men and women who would rather show you a sermon than tell you one. Those are the men and women who do not spend their entire life in contemplation but take charge of situations. Those are the men and women who do not spend their lives talking about each other but join hands with their sisters and brothers for empowering. Those men and women realize that though they may not get rewards or applause they are willing to continue to fight in the struggle and if necessary die for the cause.

"There has never been a movement where the leader has not suffered for the cause, and received the ingratitude of the people. I like the rest , am prepared for the consequence." Marcus Garvey

All of this having been said I ask you this. If there were no crises, no injustice, no discrimination in this world do you think there would be a need for a Moses, an Elijah, a Jesus, a Marcus Garvey, a Martin Luther King Jr., a Malcolm X or a Dr. Respect?
