You know, I was listening to songs from my new (soon to be released) project, Hymns In The Key Of Blues. For a moment, I forgot that was me. I was thinking that I should get that album.
People do unwise things. Each of those things will inevitably hurt someone. So, when you get hurt, was it the deed or the way it made you feel? If you forgive and release someone for the personal aspect (the feelings), you find freedom to forgive the actual deed.
Here's a deep question I can't seem to get away from: if being carnally minded is death, and spiritually minded is life and peace; if as many as are led by the Spirit of God are joint heirs with Jesus, what are you when you're not actively following the Spirit of God?
It really is important to condemn every spirit of offense and witchcraft (manipulation) that tries to sneak into the body of Christ. Jesus is King and not personal agendas.
I'm so excited about an upcoming vocal project that I keep forgetting to talk about my album, Faithful. In 18 days. It's fun, instrumental stuff. Check out this sneak peek.

I spent 6 hours on hold with a local agency today. It wore away every bit of kindness and patience I thought I had. It also made my wife extremely impatient and pushy. She found buttons I didn't know I still had. One of us is still smiling, and I'm working on it.
Is your spiritual GPS stuck on rerouting? My 28-year-old is the best broken record (don't tell him I said that): In each situation, he asks if I prayed and waited for directions. Some instances, you know what to do; but was there an even better way?
Being this close to Christmas often exposes the worst of the season. Whether you're dealing with sickness, and unhappy spouse, busy schedules, disappointment of others, missing family, or financial woes... please know that God loves you. His gift is for you and me.
Coming up on Christmas, I choose to remember Who came and sacrificed it all for me. My Smooth Jazz album will be available in early January, but my worship song is available now.

I'm setting here, getting frustrated with a defeatist attitude I see, so I start to write down scriptures about that. After 4 pages of nothing but scripture references, I realized that this is more than a single lesson.
I got comfortable in bed last night, then I got a big lesson on the tower of Babel. God is so good at turning my sleep around, but still giving me good rest. Great lesson prepared!
I mostly finished recording Awesome God. It's a worship song I wrote a couple weeks ago. I want to get a couple more voices on it and mix it down. That said, the rough version is up on youtube.
