Gospel House Cafe...

Minister Steve's ministering in South Orange, NJ tomorrow... Come out and dance for the Lord! We'll be at the IRBY Dance Center at 128 Irvington Avenue from 6-10 pm.

The point...

What is the purpose of Posterous, really. Is it beneficial? Just wondering...

Music...

Minister Steve is working on some things in the studio that will reflect his amazing versatility. There will be no auto-tune either! All anointing and blessed by God! Some singles are on the way... Lets go!!

Minister Steve...

Minister Steve will be in Warwick, New York this Saturday ministering to people who came to honor six women from this town. He is looking forward to this amazing event.

This fire...

I woke up this morning with a fire inside of me. Nothing spectacular happened it was just a normal day yesterday. But I made it through! Some things came up at work that in the past I would have challenged but instead I said, "Okay."

I am not going to struggle for power when I know where the real power lies. A few years back I was in this valley that came at me from the left. But what came from the right was the power that supersedes all other power. So now I can stand tall and face those who want to direct me to do this or that. I have mastered the phrase, "No problem!" Truthfully, after where I've been it isn't. I also know that I won't be doing this job much longer because I know what God has for me. I feel it in my spirit.

The crazy thing is that this job is cool. Sometimes it becomes challenging but it's one of the best jobs I've ever had. I'd put it in the top five! Problem is my heart and eyes are facing in another direction. God is all over my life showing glimpses of what's to come. That's where my ease comes from when dealing with my colleagues because I own this faith that has shown me highlights of what's on the way.

So I'll start my day knowing I'm not where I want to be... Yet! However, I am exactly where I'm supposed to be until God takes me to that level. The level where things come full circle. It's difficult being patient but I'll fervently pray for more. God is so that I am.

I don't make any apologies for the tone of this post if you're following and aren't a faithful or spiritual person. This is my journey and I invite anyone on this road with me. It isn't the high road it's just the right road for me. Just know sometimes I have to talk about the fire in me because it has power that prevents me from holding my peace...

Monday morning blues...

I'm dragging this morning. Exhausted knowing that I went to bed early enough. I had a busy weekend because it was Jen's birthday. I did get some rest though. It makes me wonder if I've just had enough of the same stuff at work. I enjoy the job but it isn't what I want any more for my future. Could that be the exhaustion that I feel? Possibly.

When your heart no longer accompanies you to work that's a problem. I love the idea of being a social worker and all that comes with it. I just think I've finished this course in my life. I will always help people but the angle I come from will be different. I need to get back in tune with my writing and put all of these ideas on paper. And the ideas on paper I need to finally share. I need to step my game up and fight through the exhaustion that accompanies a long commute.

If I want change I have to bring change to my situation. It can be done. I've seen others make that change. I want to feel what it's like to "love" what I do again. I will work as a social worker until God gives me an opportunity to do different. I see it. I know it. I just need to finish preparing for it. I can't miss out on what God has planned for me.

Its time for me to stop wasting time. I am tired but I know how to fight through it and today I have my boxing gloves on. Laced up and ready for the victory that awaits. This isn't the fight of my life but it is the one that will bring change to my life!
I'm bringing faith with me so I know I'll win... stand up!!

A new day...

A new day brings many opportunities. I'm falling behind in my writing goals and am going to do better in my time management. What makes it hard is that I commute so far to work and am exhausted by the time I get home.
I have to fit in my writing. I love writing lyrics and books. I have to do more so that I can go in the direction that God has designed for me. Focused!!

I vow on this new day to do better. I will write so that I can reach my 2011 goals. I am going to publish my manuscripts and at least one of my songs will be performed by Minister Steve. It's out in the universe so it shall be...

Just a thought...

Tomorrow is Jen's 36th birthday. We had a great day shopping in Cherry Hill. For a country that is "so broke" the mall was full. I went to the Short Hills Mall last week and couldn't even park. We had to sit in the car waiting for Steven to do what he needed in the mall. We never got a spot. I got one of the few spots left in the Cherry Hill lot today. All I can say is that it looks like the folks in NJ aren't as broke as they say they are or they all got their income tax checks back... Makes you wonder!

Success...

After fiddling around I guess I have all of my sites connected to Posterous.com. We will see what happens. I am going to post from two different sites in order to support my blog as well as Minister Steve's. Lets enjoy the ride...

Minister Steve...

I am working trying to figure out this site. I want to introduce you all to Minister Steve. He is an aspiring Gospel artist from Newark, NJ who wants to share His music ministry with the world. It doesn't matter if you go to church weekly or not at all. His voice will move you...

Sorry for the delay...

Sorry for not doing a December blog or even a Happy New Year blog. I have been trying to decide what direction my blog needs to go in. I love doing book reviews but don't want to post only when I do a review. Also, my focus has changed to include my songwriting and managing Minister Steve.

So the thinking continues as to where this blog needs to go. I don't want to start another blog because that would be my third one. Time gets in the way of posting on the two I already have so a third might definitely be neglected.

I ask that you bear with me but I think the focus will change to include all three things that I have been focused on: songwriting, music management and publishing. I just want to discuss things that are close to my heart.

So the title of my blog may change but the contents will vary and not be focused solely on one thing. I wish all of you well and hope your new year is blessed and prosperous. Looking forward to blogging again.

Apple has an app for blogging so I might just post a lot since I can do it from my new love-- my iPhone. Lol! Be well... And see you soon!
