Happy Saturday Fam!!! Hope youre having a wonderful and relaxing weekend. This weekend has been incredibly full for me, in several ways.. But mainly because this weekend, I was given the opportunity to step outside of my comfort zone and participate in a womens conference where I not only sang... But acted as the MC for the event. Some may not see that as anything special, but for me... It was a chance to step further into the fullness of my calling... Ive spoken at conferences, and LOVED it... But I havent spoken at anywhere NEAR as many conferences, as Ive sung for.... So it was NEW, and exciting... And I was a bit nervous... The conference has been AMAZING.. I was well received, and we had a ball.. For me, its no coincidence that more and more opportunities like this are coming to me, at the same time Ive started working on my album. Im going to be honest here, because were family and say that its been a bit of a challenge to raise the funds that I need... The enemy has been fastidious in his attempts to discourage me. Having been at fundraising now for over and month, and having set the goal I have in Operation34, to have 3-4 songs recorded by September... Its been easy to look at the money raised so far, and wonder if Ive bitten off more than I can chew... But then Im reminded of the journey of my life. How from as long as i can remember, the ONLY thing Ive ever REALLY wanted, was to use my voice to the glory of God. I remember full well, being a little girl, no more than 5, being in my room, singing my heart out with tears running down my face...and sometimes falling to my knees, asking God to send me into the NATIONS... To bring glory to his great name. During the darkest seasons of my life.. As a kid, and then a teenager the song I sang in this video used to minister to me. It said everything that I wanted to express to The Lord, and to his people... This week was an emotionally challenging one... I checked my Gofundme balance several times a day... And felt everything from worry to fear, to DETERMINATION and resolve...and every time I checked the balance, I found myself singing this song... As I sang this song privately in my house, it dawned on me to share this moment of worship with you... Its messy, my voice is SHOT... I took the SLIDE and NOT the stairs on some of the runs I sang... But its genuine. Be reminded today of Gods love for you. As you face YOUR world be reminded that your every tear, cry, groan... Dream, vision, and aspiration does NOT go ignored... Hasten to the throne... Draw closer into him... And feel him draw closer to you.... Our God is faithful... My prayers to be used by God were not in vain... Experiences like the one I had this wknd are my proof! I love you ALL ***sorry for the novel*** Hope this (scratchy) vocal of mine blesses ya!!
