DOXOLOGY

This is the band I am currently geeked out of my gourd about! They are an amazing mix of musicianship and flat out vocal talent.

Check out the video: HERE


February's Gone?

It feels like it was just yesterday and August. I am so happy to be walking without a limp finally. The past few months have been hard but nothing I couldn't overcome.

I am actually happy to be finding friends on Facebook. I know it's said you can see where you're going while looking back. I also believe you can't truly appreciate your current state of blessing until you recognize where you've come from. There are too many brats running around not giving thanks for the blessings we have. Even in this recession I know that we are still the most blessed nation in the world.

Take time out to be thankful for the small victories in your life.

My President

Yes, I realize that some may tire of the "1st Black President-Elect" thing but it's not often that a man, whom I didn't vote for, gives me chills as I understand what this country has been through. I WISH that it wouldn't be a big deal. I honestly wished that he could just be a man who beat John McCain to become the 44th President of the United States. Actually I wish he would've been the man who lost to John McCain...but Barack is only the adoption of anti-abortion and a few more Christian conscience issues away from being not just historic but legendary or even iconic.

I feel as though the country has been holding its collective breath until after the results. Then the flood of emotion overwhelmed many. It's the realization of seeing a people who were enslaved for 400 years send a Kenyan-American to the highest office in the world. It's pretty freakin' cool.

Once he's in office the honeymoon eventually will end as it always does and the principal givers of the hundreds of billions of dollars will come to get their payback. I pray for his own sanity that he can pull off half of what he says he can do. Otherwise Mr. Obama's ideal of a multi-term administration may end up like his experience...short.

This does not change the fact that as the President he deserves my prayers as he leads the greatest nation in the world in this next season of change.
