Love and Chemistry

Something to ponder that I read in Jodi Picoult's book "Songs of the Humpback Whale."



Let me tell you a little something about love. It's different every time. It's nothing more than a chemical reaction, an arrow over an equation, but the elements change. The most fragile kind of love is that between a man and woman. Chemistry, again: if you introduce a new element, you never know how stable the orginal bond is. You may wind up with a new union, with something left behind. I believe that you can fall in love many times with many different people. However I don't think that you can fall in love the same way twice. One type of relationship may be steady. Another may be fire and brimstone. Who is to say if one of these is better than the other? The deciding factor is how it all fits together. Your love, I mean, and your life.

My Top 10 Fav Songs- August 2009

So I have been listening to a lot of different music this month. My mood changes with each day but I have kept a couple of songs constantly in play. Here they are:

1. Salvador- Now that I Have You

This song is so amazing! I’ve had the album for some time now and I tell you that when I played this song for the first time it ended up on replay all day.

2. Salvador- Shine

I started to play this song when my grandmother passed. She used to love light houses and every time I played this song I think of how she was a light and shined for us. I want to be a light that shines for others as well and this song explains how I feel.


3. Worth Dying For- Take Me

I took my friends iPod for a day and ended up playing this song all the time. It’s an amazing worship song; telling the Lord to take all of you because you want nothing left. It’s a powerful statement and a powerful song.

4. JudaCamp- It’s Alright

I like this song because it’s such a cool dance song. It’s alright to be crazy and dance like David. I am considering it for one of my dance groups. It makes me so excited when I hear it.

5. LaRue- Jaded

This song is very old. I like the concept of the song because it’s very real. They are acknowledging that the person they were with wasn’t for them; and its time to move on and let go.

6. Sanctus Real- Whatever You’re Doing

Love this song! It’s honest. I know how they feel; whatever God is doing inside of us feels horrible but there’s a peace in the midst of it. In the midst of God moving things around and it hurting, He’s still giving me peace.

7. Abandon Kansas- I Wonder If It’s Me

New band alert! I got this song as a free download from Gotee records. Love it! I haven’t found a band that sounds like this in a while. I like them a lot. I hope to add more songs from them in the near future.

8. Francesca Battistelli- It’s Your Life

I like that the concept of this song is the way God talks to us. It’s our life but we have to be mindful people are watching us. When we say we are Christians we are automatically thrown into a spotlight under a magnifying glass. We have to make sure our lifestyle echoes what we believe.

9. Flyleaf- All Around Me

I am surprised I didn’t add this song sooner. I love the way she sings (Christian Rock music is getting better). You have to hear this song if you haven’t already.

10. Fireflight- Brand New Day

I feel in love with this band when I first heard “Unbreakable”. After I got their album, I was hooked. It is an amazing song. We have to remember each day is a chance to start anew, to make a step towards or away from the life God has for us. We need to stop living in the past and live in Jesus.

I hope you guys liked this month’s selection. Be blessed.

That Still, Soft Voice

I think it’s hilarious when I hear people say that God doesn’t speak to them? When I asked them what they mean they literally mean they don’t hear God speak to them. I have learned that God speaks to us: through nature, our conscience and His word. He’s that still soft voice that encourages us, disciplines us, and keeps us alert. I have learned personally that God can speak to you in so many ways and using so many things. He could use a friend, stranger, or even a minister; He could use the clouds, tress, our dreams, anything. So when we say “speak to my heart Lord” make sure you are really listening and not expecting a big booming voice from heaven and the clouds opening up (believe me, I heard it all). I hope that this encourages someone. Be blessed.

What a Wonderful Day

Today was intercessory prayer, baptism and a youth concert: all a day’s work for a youth, lol. But really, prayer service was amazing (it always is), the baptism got me excited again to see that there are still people who have no problem making a statement for Jesus. The concert ended up being a worship experience; an amazing worship experience. I really thank God for His blessings in my life. I realize in this day and time, there aren’t a lot of youth that take a stand for God but to see the masses coming out of a remnant makes me so excited to be one of them. I was telling my cousin the other day that it’s so amazing how when I feel like I am about to throw in the towel the Lord speaks to me and reminds me to keep on the road I’m on. If you don’t believe God is speaking to you, I dare you to ask Him to reveal Himself to you and see what He can do.

Under Control

Darn these commercials! I am hooked to a song by Parachute called “Under Control”. It was the song in a Nivea commercial and I googled it. SMH. You would think I would know by now, lol. The song got to me though, I have been under control for so long with this situation, keeping my feelings inside and letting it eat away at me. I kept my distance from him because I didn’t want to be a stumbling block. I wanted it to move forward only if it was God’s will but I also avoided him a lot. I don’t regret it too much, I believe everything happens for a reason but I realize how I feel now that it’s spiraling out of control. Thank God for Jesus; I have been talking his ear off and it feels amazing.

Kristen Stewart-Robert Pattinson Spotted Kissing

"Kristen Stewart-Robert Pattinson Spotted Kissing"

New dating rumors about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart after the Twilight stars are snapped making out at a Kings of Leon concert and getting cozy at Miku sushi restaurant in Vancouver.

I hope Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson start dating. Both of them would be so cute together :)

But we have no evidence sooo...... why do people assume just because Both of them Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson spend time together and they were close at a concert dont mean theyre dating.

I really hope Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson start though. And if they are, I hope they come out with it.

I LOVVEEEE Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson !

youtube, BLOCKED?!

i just can't believe it. i thought my friend's friend who came from china a few weeks ago was joking, but it turns out to be true! youtube is censored in China, so is facebook, and blogspot! Also, many other websites i go on regularly were blocked too!

there was no way to update what happens when it happened. so i recorded it all down. video and pictures to remind me of the long wonderful memory.

the first video is uploaded, and i'll upload the rest some other time. i'm trying to get used to the eastern time zone again.



i've also made a playlist for the future videos that will be uploaded. keep checking my youtube channel for updates :)

i must go watch all those videos i couldn't when in china! XD youtube, here i come!

The Lover of My Soul

I have been developing a deeper relationship with the Lord. It’s funny to explain it. I dress with Him in mind, I talk to him as I do things, and I want to hear His voice always. I never thought it would feel like this; that it would feel like I’m actually in a relationship. I remember hearing people say let God love you because He can love you like no other and I never realized how true it actually is. I am not going to say I don’t miss companionship (people look at you weird when they see you talking out loud, lol) but I don’t need it as much as I thought I did. I am seeing that so many people need Him. I wish everyone would let Him into their hearts because He’s a lover like no other.

Passion & Purity

I’m so excited! I’m reading “Passion & Purity” by Elizabeth Elliot. It’s about the waiting time between her and her husband Jim Elliot (this man’s life makes me want to be more on fire for God). It is so amazing and powerful so far. I think I highlighted the entire first 3 chapters. I’m such a romantic to read the story of how they stayed in God’s will and feel so in love with each other, is that so hard to achieve in this century? God I hope not, I pray that my husband makes some attempt to woo me old school style (letters, sonnets, verses from Songs of Solomon, etc). But what amazes me more is they wanted to please God. They struggled and fought their feelings because they wanted to please God and live a life He had for them. Who does that nowadays? Who says "Thy will be done even though I like him/her so much"? They didn't know their love for God and each other would be a testimony to help and encourage me and so many others. I realize when we go through; we go through so that others will be encouraged when they are also going through or to help some not have to.

It's Not About Us!

I have learned that holding on and holding out doesn’t just effect me; it effects those around me that look up to me. I have to admit there are times when I want to throw in the towel and do what I want to do but to be able to hold out and be an example is so much more an encouragement. There are girls in my church that no one but me can reach; they speak to no one else but me. So imagine if I’m not there for them, if I stop seeking the Lord and doing whatever; what happens to them? I have seen too many souls lost and I will stand in the gap and be the one that they see Jesus in. Think about it, who can you reach with Jesus?

Wow....

“One of the greatest blessings of heaven is the appreciation of heaven on earth. He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose”- Jim Eliot

I have been moved to tears every time I read this quote. To think that he was young (only 4 years older than me) and was so on fire for God that his life didn’t matter. Could I die for Christ? You bet. If you would have asked me that a couple years back and I wouldn’t have answered so quickly; as I gotten older and walked away from a life changing experience with just my nerves rattled I learned everyday that Jesus is sweeter that the day before. To die for Christ is not dying at all; its living a life that could bring someone to Him and make you feel complete. You die so that another might live; isn’t that What God wanted? These missionaries who go to hostile countries to bring the word to the lost are doing the most amazing thing in the world. They are risking their lives so that others can live and walk in the light. I think we need to refocus; this life isn’t about making as much money as possible or “living life to the fullest”, it’s about living your life to the fullest that God has planned for you. How amazing is that? There are blessings, levels and shifts that God has planned for each of us but we need to let go of the concepts and ideas that the world fed us. We need to turn to God and tell Him we die to the things of the world and live for Him.

Discourage Much?

I had a discussion with my Youth Minister today and I realized how much I’ve grown. My initial response if I was younger would have been to yell and withdraw; now I take it in and learn from it. I was told that my heart didn’t seem in the ministry. I tell you that I actually tried not to laugh. I love being apart of the Youth President; but I have learned that it’s God that is seeing my work and knows my heart. So it doesn’t matter if someone doesn’t think my heart is in it or not; it’s what God knows. I want to tell you not to let people discourage you but encourage YOURSELF in the Lord. Be blessed.

It Takes 21 Days to Form a Habit

I realized that they time you take to put something into your system you have to take the same amount of time of more to get it out. I am at a point where God is showing me all the unhealthy relationships that I need to get rid of and now I am seeing why. There’s a ministry and a calling that we all have and in the early stages just like with pregnancy you have to be careful to not doing anything to lose the life you are caring. I can now say that my eyes are open to the things, situations and people that God is calling me away from…..

It's One of Those Days

It’s Friday! I am so excited! Do you know why? Because I have nothing at all planned tomorrow! I tell you it feels wonderful; to be able to just do my hair and hang out at home all day without worrying about what needs to be done that day……I can’t wait! Be blessed!

It's A New Season Coming to Me!

I am not going to mention the ungodly hour that I am up today but I feel like it’s a new season for me. Everything is going to change for the better; for my good and I’m moving to a higher level in Christ. I am not perfect, no where even remotely near good but I am grateful that the Lord is moving in my life and on my behalf. I am so excited! I can’t wait to see what God has in store for me.

Where Are the Good Comedies?

I grew up on the good stuff: Friends, Seinfeld, Everyone Loves Raymond, etc. Now all there is on TV. is garbage! Well except for How I Met Your Mother, Rules of Engagement and New Adventures of Old Christine. But if it’s not a Monday Night or Wednesday Night, I’m stuck. I am falling in love with the U.S. of The Office, but what else is there? I love a good laugh just as much as the other person, probably more. They need to bring the good stuff back! I’m sorry, I needed to rant!

Kristen Stewart-New Moon Trailer

"Kristen Stewart-New Moon Trailer"

Taylor Lautner says 'New Moon' is taken up a 'whole other notch'
Ladies, sink your teeth into Jacob Black.

An updated, action-packed trailer for "New Moon" hit the web Tuesday featuring a behind-the-scenes interview with Taylor Lautner, who packed on 30 pounds of rippling muscle to play jaw-dropping werewolf Jacob.

In the vampire romance sequel, Kristen Stewart's Bella has her heart broken by Robert Pattinson's brooding vampire Edward.

So she falls back on her buddy, Jacob -- who flaunts his new rock-hard 'wolf-pack' in several sizzling, shirtless scenes.

"As time goes on, the heat starts building," dishes Lautner.

The video shows Bella and Jacob brushing their hands together and staring into each other's eyes.

The teenage angst flourishes between exciting scenes packed with crashing motorcycles, feuding werewolves and high-flying stunts.

"'New Moon' is going to be stepped up a whole other notch," says Lautner. "There's more action in this one, especially with the werewolves involved."

"I think the fans are really gonna be happy," he adds.

"New Moon" hits theaters on Nov. 20.

The cast is also currently filming the third segment, "Eclipse," in Vancouver, where Stewart and Pattinson were spotted getting cozy at a Kings of Leon concert last weekend.

Prep Time!

I’m counting down until my B-Day! I want to go to the opera or see a ballet then go out to eat. I don’t want too many people there; just my friends from because I want clean, wholesome fun! I am designing my dress and setting a color scheme! I am also looking into restaurants and shows on Broadway. I’m so excited!

I Ache All Over!

So...... maybe limbo wasn’t such a good idea. I ache all over my legs to the point that I can’t bend them without flinching, lol. I should have done some serious stretching before I played. I’m in fit flops and I refuse to put heels on, keep the prayer there. I guess I'm not as young as I used to be....Lol.

Lay It Down

I’m humming that tune by Jennifer Knapp “Lay it Down”. We need to do that; especially at church. We come into His presence and go out the same way we came in. We are supposed to come in; place our all on the altar and leave with the weights off our shoulder. We are so supposed to seek Him with no distractions, fears, worries.

Beach Blanket Bingo!

Today was my friend from Shepherd’s House Bridal Shower. It was a beach theme! I had so much fun. I won the limbo contest, thank you very much! I am so happy for her; she is such a beautiful woman of God. I am also happy for the groom as well. He waited patiently for her; it’s something I can learn from. To know that someone actually did it makes it easier for me to hold out as well.

It's Spreading...

Wedding fever seems to be spreading like wildfire. I just survived my cousin & best friend’s wedding and today I went to a couple of halls in Long Island to look for my friends wedding that will be next year fall. My sister and her boyfriend/fiancé is looking into ideas for their wedding, my best friend from Philly is looking into hers as well. Lol. It was a wonderful experience, all the halls were gorgeous! I am actually thinking I am having an overload of estrogen. I hang out with too many girls too much now. Smh, and to think tomorrow I have another Bridal Shower to attend. I’m actually excited though; it’s a beach theme.

He's Just Not That Into You

OMGosh! Best movie ever! It is also very sad! I couldn’t find the words to explain it. I didn’t realize how girls can be (I only have 4 girlfriends). I actually think it’s funny but also true. It actually made me think: Is he just not that into me? Hmmmm……..

Why Did You Doubt?

I don’t know if I told you guys before, but when I did my Daniel fast we would have prayer sessions after service on Sundays. LOL, I think its funny looking back because I never pegged myself as a prayer warrior but to have someone ask you to pray on their behalf is an honor. Any who, back to the story: Our former Youth President was asked to pray over us that day. I will always remember his prayer. He prayed that I would be a Peter. I remember not fully understanding why throughout the prayer he compared me to him but I asked God to reveal the purpose of it. So fast forward to today; I was reading my copy of Our Daily Bread and the scripture verse was the story of Peter and Jesus walking on water. I stopped literally on Matthew 14:31 (Amplified Bible) “Instantly Jesus reached out His hand and caught and held him, saying to him, O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” I have to say that verse was talking to me. I know what God can do, especially what He can do in my life. I am always the one who wants to jump out of the ship and meet Him even in the craziest circumstances but when I look around that’s when I doubt. If we just keep our eyes on Him in the midst on the winds and currents we can walk right up to Him. He won’t let us sink, so why are we full of doubt?

I'm bad I'm bad

Ok so I'd just like to say that I know I'm a huge dissapointment. My blog has been supremely devoid of Danielle gossip lately, and full of other funny shit.

Let's face it though... you come here for the Danielle gossip.

I promise I'll update soon... I haven't done a good post since sometime in May... I know because I haven't even posted about the cancer fundraiser yet... or the Britney concert.

So... stay tuned!

A Must Watch

For those of you who don't really know me... Well I love commercials with talking babies, or talking dogs. That shit just gets me. This has no talking... but hip hop roller babies? Can't beat it!

It's A Beautiful Day!

Today is a high of 93 degrees! I wore a sundress and called it a day. Lol, it’s so beautiful outside though. I am going to try to get home at a decent hour so I can just sit outside and watch the sunset. I walked to Borders on 34th St. on my lunch break. I like their Christian Fiction collection. It’s pretty decent. I actually saw books I wanted to buy from them. I am going to have to slow down in the book buying department which I am learning is easier said than done. Lol.

Kristen Stewart - Welcome to the Rileys

Kristen Stewart will appear in Welcome to the Rileys as Mallory Lead role (post-production).

Welcome to the Rileys is an upcoming American independent drama film directed by Jake Scott, written by Ken Hixon, and starring Kristen Stewart, James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo. It tell about A troubled young woman reunites a grieving couple who have been driven apart by the death of their daughter. Filming took place in New Orleans in late Fall 2008. No official release dates have been announced.

Kristen Stewart plays Mallory, the troubled young woman.

Synopsis Welcome to the Rileys

Doug Riley and his wife Lois have been living a half life since their daughter Emily was killed eight years ago. Doug has coped by having an affair with Vivian, a waitress. Lois has struggled, harbouring a secret and devastating sense of guilt for her daughters death. She has withdrawn into herself and hides away from the outside world, relying on hairdressers who make house calls, her sister, Harriet, and the local pastor.

When Vivian dies, Doug is lost. On a business trip to Baton Rouge he finds himself at a crossroads. And in a strip club. A 16 year old lap dancer Mallory offers him extras in a private room. He turns her down but goes home to her run down apartment and makes his own proposition. He offers to pay her $100 a day if he can stay for a while, get his head together. No sex. No strings. Mallory isnt used to getting money for nothing, but whatever

Doug rings Lois and tells her he isnt coming home.

He and Mallory settle into a certain kind of domesticity although Mallory wandering around naked and offering sex are a little off-putting!

Helpless on her own, Lois, a woman previously unable to make it the 20 yards to the mailbox, realises she will have to take drastic action if she is to save her marriage. For the first time in 8 years, and after a couple of failed attempts, she manages to reach her car and start driving, headed south.

Back in Louisiana, Doug tidies Mallorys apartment and then sets about trying to clean up her life. Shes an underage hooker after all.

Lois, paper bag at the ready to save her from hyperventilating, makes slow but steady progress. When she finally arrives to find her husband living with a foul-mouthed young hooker, Lois is, predictably, horrified. But, like Doug before her, she is taken with Mallorys similarities to Emily. Lois moves in. And the three of them form an unusual family unit. But Mallory soon bridles at the attempts to mend her wicked ways. Shes not ready to be anyones surrogate daughter just yet. Sparks fly.

After she is beaten up and hospitalised by a client, Doug and Lois rush to Mallorys bedside. They are asked what their relationship is to the girl. Only family are allowed in after all. Lois hesitates. Then declares that she and Doug are her parents.

Doug and Lois are finally re-united. Lois admits to Doug how their daughter died and he finally understands why she has been so consumed by guilt. The weight of the last few years are finally lifted from her shoulders and life seems like it is coming back together

But Mallory isnt about to complete the pretty picture just yet. Shes a teenager after all

The Newly- Wed Game

My cousins (she’s my cousin now too, lol) invited me and his sister over for dinner tonight. It was hilarious. The only difference now is that she doesn’t ride home with us anymore. Any who; they were talking about their honeymoon in the Pocono’s and how much fun it was. They mentioned a game that the other honeymooners were playing called the Newly-Wed Game. It was a game to figure out how much you knew about your spouse. I think it is absolutely hilarious to see my cousin and his wife (it sounds so funny to say) talk with us; they are sickening! It made me happy that I am waiting. I want that; not the cute pukey stuff but the companionship that God has intended for me. Sigh, I am so happy for them; even though they were extremely sickening.

We Have the Victory!

Service was amazing today! I woke up this morning telling myself “Enough is enough!” I am sick and tired of constantly running around in circles on cycles that I have no business being in. I played “Yearn” by Shane & Shane on my way to service and “Beautiful Lord” by Leeland (love them!) and prepared myself for worship. My cousin (who is a mighty Woman of God) was called upon to do the Welcome Address for the new visitors and as the say the rest is history…..Lol, she started to talk about enough was enough, we have the Victory! I tell you it was so amazing! It seems like the Body of Christ is suffering for too long. Its time to tell the devil: “Enough!” We have the Victory. It’s time to shout it from the mountain tops and take what God has for us; it doesn’t have to be financial. It could be a peace of mind, salvation for a love one, deliverance from a situation, etc. Today let us proclaim “We Have the Victory!”

You Keep Me Coming Back for More...

My ex is a drug that is slowly killing me. Every time I try to get over him and move on; he keeps saying or doing something that makes me want to go back. But no more! I am ridding myself of him and asking God to break the ties that keeps us connected some way or another. Keep me in prayer.

Ummm....

I am actually trying to think about what I should say today; I got nothing. Lol. There are days when I feel like I can talk forever and days when I don’t want to talk at all.

Leaving a Legacy

I remember reading Our Daily Bread and it mentioned leaving a legacy. I wonder what I will be remembered for? I hope that I will be like my church mother: Mother Goddard. She was an on fire, loving, sweet and praying woman of God. It was a blessing to know her and to know she prayed for me and my family. When she passed I cried because I knew I would never hear her voice or have to tell her no as she tried to give me money like she did when I was younger, lol. Whenever I think about her now, I can’t help but smile. I want people to be able to do that when I am gone. I want them to say that I encouraged them and prayed for them when they didn’t think or feel like anyone was there; I was the one that reminded them how great God is. I want to be someone who lived a life for Christ. What do you want your legacy to be?

While I'm Waiting

I love the song by John Waller called “While I’m Waiting” from the Fireproof Soundtrack. It had me thinking: while I’m waiting in my current situation what am I doing? I am giving my relationship with God more “face-time” so to speak, lol. I am also looking into ballet classes, French lessons, cooking, and looking into what classes I want to take before I start spring semester at Parsons. In other words: I am developing myself. I was so used to being what everyone expected me to be now I am being who God intended me to be. I like that: being who God intended me to be. That makes the possibilities as far as the horizon. In this time of waiting I look at it as a time of preparing. I am preparing and honing my skills that I will need later when I’m in Paris designing for Christian Lacroix (God willing his line is still around) or choreographing dances for the Praise Dance Ministry, or even cooking for fundraisers. The possibilities are endless. What are you doing while you’re waiting?

I Am Me!

I realize that in my current situation I find it very easy to find fault in myself and think “I’m not pretty enough” or “I’m not good enough” but in this situation I remind myself that I am ME. I can’t be what people want me to be only who God made me to be. I will admit there are times when I wish I could change certain things about me but would I still be the same? Probably not. That’s why I have become happy and amazed that God has made me the nutsy, sarcastic, book worm that I am and I wouldn’t change it if I could.

A Day to Myself!

Today was my day off. I actually slept in late! It felt so good. I don’t know what I will do now that I am not running around finding things for the wedding. I should start reading again; I miss curling up and reading a good novel. I just started reading My Life as A Doormat by Rene Gutteridge; its really good so far. Well, let me get back to lounging, have a wonderful day.

CHINA!

ok so i'm at my dad's house right now, in Waterloo. I already got my things packed in a big suitcase ready to head to China! i'm going with my dad to the airport early in the morning, so he had to pick me up today so he wouldn't have to yesterday (we live pretty far away, as in cities away... emphasis on the plural of cities).

well, i'm kind of bored right now so i thought i should update this blog with current events.

i finished summer school, finally. i have an 82% in it. i know, not the best mark, but it's better than taking grade12 english for 6 monthes and get a lower mark. so now that i got english out of the way, i can take more relaxing courses next year to balance out all the hard math and sciences i'll be dying from.

as planned before summer even started, i'm going back to China. it's the first time in 8 or 9 years. when i immigranted to Canada i never went back. all my friend go back ever few years but i wasn't so lucky. even my parents all went back once. it's about time i get to go back too! i leave from the Toronto Air Port on Aug.3rd and come back on the 27th. it's not quite a month, but it's the best i can do considering i just finished summer school.

i want to spend as much time there and spend it well.

i've made a list of things to do.

oh! how i'm going to miss my silly friends!

i don't remember much of my family, and i'm not close with any of them. hopefully this trip will change it.

My Top 10 Fav Songs- July 2009

Sorry I posted the list late! I have been so busy! Well with the wedding on my mind non stop of course I will have A LOT of dance music on here. Here we go:

1. Wave Your Banner- Kierra “KiKi” Sheard
This is the song we walked into during the ceremony. I heard it once and was hooked.

2. Lose it All- Rush of Fools
I love this song! After all the stress I’ve been through, it still feels good to say that I want to lose it all for the Lord.

3. Shake It- Canton Jones
It’s the remake of the Hokey Pokey. I like it to dance to, it’s a cute song.


4. Leeland- Beautiful Lord
Now, I have to have Leeland on my play list. This song is so amazing! It is a beautiful love song to the Lord. To know that in the midst of everything He is there is a feeling that beats all others.

5. Lifehouse- Broken
I am being a total drama queen with this song. But in the midst of the drama, I could relate to this song. Plus it’s Lifehouse; you got to love Lifehouse.

6. Kirk Franklin feat. Toby Mac- I Am God
This song was playing every morning as I got dressed for work. I love the whole concept of being still and letting God be God. How many of us actually do it these days? This song spoke to me a lot.

7. Kierra “KiKi” Sheard- Love Like Crazy
I like this song; it’s a love song about God. I love how it sounds. I replay it all the time I’m in my cousin’s car. It’s a funky song.

8. Delirious?- Everything
I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t listen to my rock worship music, lol. This song is the song that just makes you realize where you stand in your relationship with Christ. You say that the Lord is everything, and truly mean it should show in your lifestyle. I love this band and this song though its old is amazing!

9. B.Reith- Mess
I love this song! I have been humming it all day today. It’s everybody’s song. We are in a mess and we need the only One who can get us out of it. It takes a lot to admit you’re dependent on someone. But to be dependent on God is the best support system ever.

10. Denver & The Mile High Orchestra- Good to Go
I’ve had this album for awhile but I just started to listen to it again recently. I love swing music! It’s the instruments, I am an instrument girl (guitars, drums, trumpets, violins); I love this song because it’s a feel good song but it still uplifts God. And there’s nothing wrong with having a good time and still giving God the praise.


I hope you liked my selection for July, I wonder what will inspire my song selection for August. Be blessed.

It's Here!

The day that we have all been waiting for is here! My cousin is married! I danced until I could dance no more. I dragged my niece all over the dance floor and had so much fun! I promised my cousin I would dance and I danced from beginning to the end! Now I can finally get some sleep! Lol, this has been an exhausting experience but so worth it to see how happy they were. I will try to post some pictures.
