Discovery

I love playing music.

That doesn't sound like much of a discovery considering, I knew that already, and so did everyone else.

However, after playing a short set yesterday with my good friend Natalie, I realized that the impact it has on me is one thousand times greater than what it may have on those hearing it.

I don't play for them, I don't even play for me.
What God makes me feel when I use the gift he gave me is worth so much more than a pat on the back or even selling a million copies of my CD (which I hope to record soonish).
I'm not saying don't come see us play, or buy CDs. I'm just recognizing the importance of giving thanks and honor where they are due, and asking you all to do the same as far as the music I play is concerned.


Still, don't hesitate to offer a hearty "Good job"

It would be greatly appreciated.

I love you all



Singing my thoughts

This is it...

I know so much.
I've done so much.
I am so much (of no fault of mine).

Though all of this is true, sitting here on the Earth makes it seem like it means nothing.
I could dictate paragraph after paragraph of angsty recollections of my thoughts and experiences as far this issue is concerned, but I realized quickly that there are more important things to address.

SUCH AS...

The fact that there is someone watching me...Not just watching me, but watching over me.
He is aware of what I know, what I've done, who I am.

IN FACT...

I know because He taught.
I've done because He has given me the chance.
I am because He made me.

TRUTH IS...

He knows so much more, has done so much, and he is so much more. And because of that, I need not worry what may happen, or not happen to me or around me.

"All things work together..."
