Post No. 62

Headed home. But right now I thought to take the time to type down a few thoughts on my blog here. I see that April, is coming to a close. So on this last day, of this week, in this last day of the month, I find myself truly thankful. Thankful for life and a purpose in it. God's whispers are an amazing sound to hear. And I've heard it quite a few times this past month. Though they may not be audible they're still clear as day. They've given me songs, hope, a sense of firm vision and a clear head. I know I always need a clear head. I remember hearing a young person pray in front of a group of people. She began with "Ok, please close your head and bow your eyes." As humorous as it was(And it was) those words make sense. Close your head to destructive ideas. Bow your eyes to remain humble.

April 27, 2011...Still keeping on. In the process of the Forefront's second Ep. I'm very excited about it too. The Voice play at my church was just this past Sunday, and it was completely amazing! God really used us all in a great way. I played the role of our Savior Jesus Christ. Lot's of other things have been going on. But the really great thing that has been taking place has been inside of myself. I feel God changing my heart. For a longtime now it's been a slow process of finding my gifts/talents, finding out who I am in Christ, batting selfish self-seeking, and waiting...patiently waiting for whatever God hold for me. You might find all of these words in these post as unrelational to you. True, they are quite personal, but I hope that we might find a common line. For I know that what I experience in my own life, someone else had already tried it out before I did. Just know that God, holds it all together. I believe. I always will.

There once was a boy named Jon...who wanted something. I think the moment I found out what I wanted, the more intense and challenging my life became. Some people might call them problems. Yes, problems do take some solving to do. But without problems who can say that They've graduated?
"The best yet" is a great idea. It's called hope. This house we live in is good but God's got something better. The occupation we have is good for now, but God's got something better. God always has great things in store for His children-for those who are called by His name.
For me, I think I'm always hoping. For love, for mercy...for the impossible. Hope for what is unseen. Let's hope.

I'm at the place where stories sleep (the library). The weather today is oddly cold for southern Texas. But me Michigan bones are holding up nicely. There's this thing coming up that I'm really excited about doing. Lately I've been feeling drained and well, just tense and weak. I've felt God calling out to me in these past few weeks. My always moving body and working mind have not been tuned to hearing His voice as it should be. So, I feel lead to go on a sabbatical. Somewhere where I'll be able to just pause my normal routine of life and tune my spirit to His voice. It will be the first week of March. 7 days. One purpose-to draw closer to God. I know my plan. Now I need to be strong and carry out what has been asked of me. God grant me the strength and give me the words to speak. Help me let You do what You already want to do.

I've been realizing lately how perfect I try to see things. Right now I'm in Starbucks sipping a coffee while Bob Marley's "Every Little Thing, is Gonna Be Alright", is being played through the overhead speakers. According to God's word in Romans 8:28 it says, "Everything works together for the good, for those who love God." It does not mean to say everything will ALWAYS be good. But everything will be work out in favor for those who seek and love God. I'm one of those people. And because I am, I can feel the tension of the kingdom of darkness try it's best to pull me down through the not so great times. Those times happen to all of man kind. But unlike those who live of the world, I have hope. Many times I've felt myself about to snap. My mind would think that everything going on around me is way to difficult to handle. It is, if I try to take it on all by my lonesome. I believe in Romans 8:28. There is a greater purpose behind my pain, and all will be well with my soul.

This is probably among the first blog post of the new year of 2011. It is now 2:12 Texas, time of course. I just came back from playing at a church with my brothers, and all I can say is that was one of the best times I've had in all of 10'. Great way to end the year. Looking back at last year, I see myself very different from the person I was before. I am not who I was. That alone makes me very thankful. The next year after, I hope to be even better. The next year after...

Continuing the posts...

It's sure has been a while but...I'm still here. Waiting for a lot of things and happy for what's already been done. Much has been happening here on my end. Still live in Texas, still playing music and always still following God's plan for my life. It's life with no backspace or ctrl Z. Moving forward for what's ahead, is what I've been up to lately. The holidays have past and now 2011, is on the brink of arrival. Now is a good time to start looking ahead, I would think. I'm really excited for this new year!! For real. Forgive my rambling on. There really is no major point to this paragraph other than to say, keep going on! There's so much more than what you know coming up. Yeah, there is hope for this generation.
