Writing with Juliet Iwelunmor

The past couple of days have been trying. I expected this. But living through it has been something else. But here is what I’ll keep. Know your worth. I came for a higher glory. I lived for a greater good. None of that changes even if my decisions with life seems unsettling. I am still and always will work for a higher glory and live for a greater good. See the point of a pivot isn’t because the mission is aborted. It is to actually fulfill it in ways that truly reflect it. When a space makes you forget your worth, when it suffocates your spirit and causes your ears to ring, then even the mission will abort itself. For one year, I lived knowing a space was suffocating his plans for my life. I lived knowing that I wasn’t living as the light he called me to be. I sought help, hoped those who believed in hope would see the light and champion it. They didn’t. I sought help elsewhere.

I share this here to remind all of us that we are all disposable in the end. Do your worse to make others feel terrible but even you, one day, you will depart the space you find yourself in. What then will they say about you? How would history or the future remember you? Here is what I hope they remember for my time? That I truly embodied higher glory. Not in words but action. I lived for greater good. Not also in words but action. The results are self-evident even if no-one saw it or believed in it. We have always been ignored so nothing new there. But I believed in the mission, fulfilled it too with the gifts he gave to me. The end is here but I leave knowing that I have complete victory and nothing can ever separate me from the love of God which will always be mine. I will always fight for God’s glory, not man’s.
