Offering today, condolences and prayer from the Jackson family to former President Carter and the Carter family on the passing of First Lady Rosalyn Carter. We search for adjectives to describe former First Lady Rosalyn Carter. She was decent, smart, tough-minded and tender-hearted. She was married to Jimmy each day of their 77 years. She continued to grow in faith and in substance. She was genuine. She was authentic. After a late meeting at the White House, they offered me a chance to sleep in the Lincoln bedroom. I was too nervous to accept their hospitality. She had no precedent as a marriage partner and co-President. She and Jimmy are God’s gift to us. I hope our nation will appreciate their contribution. The former President never stop teaching Sunday school classes and she never stopped attending. In the lineage of of Jesus, we not only admire Him, we follow Him.The Carter family built houses and people. May Former First Lady Carter, rest in peace. We lost her but she is not lost. We know where she is. Offering today, condolences and prayer from the Jackson family to former President Carter and the Carter family on the passing of First Lady Rosalyn Carter. 🕊️🙏🏽🛐
He turned pain into POWER. Congratulations to @dr.yusefsalaam, one of the #centralpark5 exonerated on winning the 9th City Council District seat in Harlem on Nov. 7, 2023. “But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.”Genesis 50:20 #votingmatters🔋#yusefsalaam ✊🏽🤴🏿
The past is indeed prologue. I delivered this message many years ago and still believe as if I delivered it today. These words ring true. We must pursue peace and shared existence. War is not an option. Through non-violence, we can have shared existence. We can move from pain and fear and despair to HOPE. And HOPE must abide. ☮️🕊️ #fbf #warnomore #peace #hope #wehavenothingtofearbutfearitself #nopain #thepastisprologue #Thanksgiving 🎥:@Apnews

“Everybody can be great — because anybody can serve.”-Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We spend our day in service just as Dr. King would have us to do. #InTheTradition. #MLK24 #StrengthToLove #KeepHopeAlive #IamSomebody
“But if we are to call ourselves Christians, we had better avoid intellectual and moral blindness. Throughout the New Testament we are reminded of the need for enlightenment. We are commanded to love God, not only with our hearts and souls, but also with our minds. When the Apostle Paul noticed the blindness of many of his opponents, he said, “I bear them record that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.” Over and again the Bible reminds us of the danger of zeal without knowledge and sincerity without intelligence.”- Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. #StrengthToLove #MLK #mlkday

Celebrating 61 years TODAY! After a year’s chase at @ncatsuaggies , I caught up with Jackie and married her on December 31,1962. I thought I was smart so I could get away with buying one present. I soon learned it was Jesus’ birthday AND her anniversary. I would have to buy two presents. I also thought I was the “Man of the House” and that I would make all major decisions. But so far, no major decisions have been made. These 61 years have been well worth the chase. Going to Selma,going to jail for public accommodations, going abroad to get Goodman, the 1984 and 1988 races….things got real tough. But through all the decisions, Jackie told me to hang in there and not to embarrass our people by giving up. I loved her then, and today the love is 60 years deeper. She covered my back in the sunshine days of summer, and the cold nights of winter. Marriage goes through these stages, but she never wavered. I spent 17 years at home, and the rest with Jackie. Love must endure many seasons. I have been in jail, made foreign policy expeditions and made my share of mistakes.Through it all, her care for me was by grace and mercy and it has endured. I thank you,Jackie for being my rock. I love you very much. #HappyAnniversary #itsmyanniversary #love #IamSomebody #KeepHopeAlive
