So I'm going to take time and let everyone know what's going on in my life:
- Tuesday I started writing a new song (thanks Dre for the Mac) call "All across the Universe." I only got an intro wrote. Inspiration just would not come. Arghhhhh!
- Wednesday Mark came over to my apartment and we hung out, bounced ideas off each other, and basically just had fellowship. Then, we had a leadership group that night. It was so awesome. I've really missed it, plus we had some great bar b que.
- Thursday I was driving to practice in Adairsville when inspiration hits. Yay! I got there and Dre brought the Mac so I put down a few tracks to the song, and we had an amazing practice.
- Tonight I get to hang out with one of my best friends in the whole world. It's been so long.
- On a side note wedding plans are coming along well. I'm so excited to spend the rest of my life with Danielle. She is so amazing. I feel so blessed that God would bring her into my life. Ok. That's enough of the mush.
Finally thoughts:
God is amazing. He has brought some amazing people in my life that encourage me and keep me accountable. You never know when God will do something amazing. Miracles happen every day we are just to blind to see them. We are looking for the spectacular when the real miracles happen with every breath, and every life touched for the kingdom. That is the real miracles.

Racism...
I hope there are people of every race, every nationality, every age, and every language reading this. I was currently reading a blog on Yahoo new about racism and the presidential election. According to the polls and surveys taken there is still racism in American and it is effecting the election process of the next president. What is wrong with people? Why is racism a part of American life?
Lets see what the bible says about it:
Galatians 3:26-28
You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Here Paul is addressing all Christians about racism. It could also read (Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, black nor white, asian nor american, purple nor yellow) for you are all ONE in Christ Jesus. Does it say can all be Two or Three? No! It says ONE! So I say to you why all the prejudice. Do you think that only white people get to heaven? Only black people go to heaven? Only brown people?
Ephesians 2:8
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—
Grace. God is a God of grace, of forgiveness, of loving you for who you are no matter what. Who are we to take what God has made clean and called it unclean? We were all sinfull,dirty people regardless of race or lanuage or color, but God has made us all clean and lifted us up to a Great position. We have all the power of Jesus Christ living through us! Stand up and act like it! Take that power and do as Jesus done. No matter what race, lanuage or nationality...
