Bishop Eddie Long


In class we watched a tape of North Carolina Centrals University's 2004 graduation. The guest speaker was Bishop Eddie Long. He spoke of the future and what it held for NCCU graduates. I love his African Proverb about the lion and the Gisele.
"Everday when the gisele awakes he must run faster than the lion and the lion must run faster than the fastest Gisele"
He was a graduate frrom NCCU and I loved the fact that he spoke 0f people who told him that he was never going to be anything. I think that was very inspirational to many students. Believe it or not many students were told that as well. I think that his word was very inspirational, watching it I felt as if I was in church. He got the audience very intune.....the students were saying praise and keeping their eyes and ears open for the next big thing to come out of his mind!
