*******Sometimes you may think just because you don’t have a solution, a solution must not exist.  That is when you put it in God’s hands and let him work it out for you and the people involved in a particular situation.  Don’t give up.  That fat lady doesn’t have to sing when God is doing his thing.*******

Newsboys – God‘s Not Dead

*******What a beautiful song and awesome video!!!  I first heard “God’s Not Dead” by the Newsboys on the MySpace music player (I guess MySpace isn’t dead either) and I thought it was really good…then I saw the video.  I actually teared up as I watched the band members and different people read messages about God being dead.  I was filled with strength as I watched them all dismiss and respond to the messages.  They let people know through their song and by responding to tweets, blog posts, newsfeeds and videos that God is not dead.  I had to remind my boys recently that God does exist and there is no way life would be as complex as it is without a creator.  When I think of the process of life from conception to death, it’s impossible for me to believe the process came from nothing.  God exists and I see evidence of His existence everywhere I lay my eyes.*******

Mary Mary – Go Get It

Verse 1
It’s like you’re looking through a telescope you see where you gone be
Growing getting better you’re not the person they see
Can’t be mad at the things you been through cuz they built yo muscle
Now you’re stronger than you ever been they can’t stop yo hustle

Yo Faith ain’t never small that’s what brought you this far
See you got your dreams and you got your prayers and you got Yo God he gone take you there
See everyone has a season and I believe this one’s yours
Cuz you been workin waitin this what you been prayin for

Chorus
Go get it, Go Get it, Go get it, Go get it, Go get it
Go get yo blessing
Go get it, Go get it, Go get it, Go get it, Go get it, Go get it
It’s yo time, it’s yo time, it’s yo time, it’s yo time

Verse 2
You were made to live a good life and that’s what I believe
So hit the floor say a prayer start working you got to do something

It’s alright to crawl before you walk it’s alright to walk before you run
But if you wanna get what you never got gotta do something that you never done

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
You been qualified
But this mercy multiplied
You cannot be denied
Cuz You’re finally certified
It’s official
Go ahead and testify
He’s gone bless you
You gone bless me
Now God be glorified

Repeat Chorus 2x’s

*******Love this one!  I dedicate “Go Get It” by Mary Mary to all my hard-working, pavement-pounding people out there.  You’ve earned it.  Now, it’s time to go get the fruits of your labor. *******

Sunday’s Song – 22 Apr 2012 – Group 1 Crew – He Said

God, the Father watches us all everywhere. (Photo credit: angelofsweetbitter2009)

*******What a truly inspirational song.  It is true, though we may be down, He will never give us more than we can bear.  Always remember that my loves.  Strive on!!!*******

HE SAID

So your life feels like it don’t make sense
And you think to yourself, ‘I’m a good person’
So why do these things keep happening?
Why you gotta deal with them?

You may be knocked down now
but don’t forget what He said, He said

I won’t give you more, more then you can take
and I might let you bend, but I won’t let you break
and No-o-o-o-o, I’ll never ever let you go-o-o-o-o
Don’t you forget what He said

Who you are ain’t what your going through
So don’t let it get the best of you
Cause God knows everything you need,
so you ain’t gotta worry

You may be knocked down now
but just believe what He said, He said

I won’t give you more, more then you can take
and I might let you bend, but I won’t let you break
and No-o-o-o-o, I’ll never ever let you go-o-o-o-o
Don’t you forget what He said

Don’t fear when you go through the fire
Hang on when it’s down to the wire
Stand tall and remember what He said

I won’t give you more, more then you can take
and I might let you bend, but I won’t let you break…

I won’t give you more, more then you can take
and I might let you bend, but I won’t let you break
and No-o-o-o-o, I’ll never ever let you go-o-o-o-o
Don’t you forget what He said

Song Of The Day – 1 Apr 2012 – James Fortune & FIYA – Identity

*******”Identity” by James Fortune & FIYA really made me think about what I need and want to change about myself.  I know I can’t do it alone, so I am looking to God to help me change.  Once I get a real grasp on my problems and work on eliminating them, I will feel better about my future.*******

Sunday’s Song – 11 Mar 2012 – Jill Scott – Hear My Call – Official Video And Live Performance At The 41st Annual NAACP Image Awards – YouTube

*******Whoa.  What an amazing video and performance by Jill Scott!  ”Hear My Call” hit me so hard I couldn’t help but to cry along with her.  I, like countless others, have been burned by love and my, oh my does it hurts so bad, just as Jill expresses in this song.  I had to post both the official video and her live performance because they are both so moving, I had to share them with you all.  I, too, cried out to God for help and healing from heartbreak.  I forced myself to turn cold in order to not ever hurt again.  I am now softening my heart because I know every man doesn’t want to hurt me, I just chose the wrong ones.  This time, I will make sure that never happens again.  Whomever I end up with will be my friend first and I must know him inside and out before I even think about entering into a relationship with him.  Older, wiser, ready for love.  :)*******

Sunday’s Song – 19 Feb 2012 – Busted Heart (Hold On To Me) – For King & Country  Live At The Recording Academy- YouTube

Image via Wikipedia

*******I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this live version of “Busted Heart (Hold On To Me)”.  They really blew me away by using instruments not normally used today.  A xylophone?!  Awesome.  This is a great song the vast majority of us can relate to.  When your heart is broken, it literally feels like you are falling apart and to be be comforted is  usually one of the top three things needed to go on.  I vowed last year to never let my heart get broken again.  Although, I really can’t keep it from happening again without a shadow of a doubt, at least I know how to best prevent it and who to turn to if it does.*******
