LISA LEONARD

LISA.LEONARD is a poet, a songwriter, a singer, daughter, a producer, a musician, a sister, a singer, an advocate, a friend and a philanthropist -- but she would like to be known for the love in her music and for her love for The Lord Jesus Christ. Centering on her confident soulful vocals over her self written EP: 'A NEW LEASE OF LIFE' a beautiful collection of songs, showing intimacy, by a heart-tugging portrait of life and personal testimonies of challenges of a lover’s parting and its after-ache, her search for truth through her faith in Gods word and finding her purpose in life and her destiny. An insightful, honest and creatively accomplished expression of inner emotions, and the interconnectedness of all of us.... “music is something that God started, it is the vehicle we all need to take us to that higher place, God put deep inside of us a longing, to express, to feel, to love, to articulate, we are all worshipers, and all worship 'something' ...but theres nobody who deserves our love and expression of worship, more than Jesus Christ, nobody will ever know what He went through to redeem us and save us!"... "I want my music to really stimulate and revive the spirit inside every person, I feel my music is even more in accordance with where people are. Everybody’s looking for ways to feel better -- the world is so unpredictable, people are looking inside themselves to ask what’s meaningful in life". She gives album producer OD Hunte credit for a smooth creative process, and to Rob Evans who also co-produced the album. The EP's spiritual and emotional core of dealing with her own faults, failings, and struggles can be found in the romantic and compassionate songs "Remoulding", "Shadow of Myself" and "Steal Away", and her freedom from low self esteem and past soul ties are truely reflected in the songs "Blind At The Highway" and "Leanin." The creative strength and satisfaction also reflects Lisa's experience of a world that’s becoming more against Christ, but LOVE endures all things! ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------- "Love not only bears up under the load of difficulty and trouble but love also has the staying power to make it to the end. Love does not fizzle out but remains strong and endures, even till the end. In our world, it’s not always the big times of suffering and trials that tests the quality of our love. Sometimes, just the everyday pressures of life can wear us down. It is easy to start strong, but it takes strength and effort to not let the “wear and tear” of everyday life to wear us down and bring us to the place of simply giving up. True love endures to the end, but the sort of love that endures is not a human kind of love but a love that only originates with God. “Put me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm. For love is as strong as death, jealousy is as severe as Sheol; its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the Lord. Many waters cannot quench love, nor will rivers overflow it; if a man were to give all the riches of his house for love, it would be utterly despised.” (Song of Solomon 8:6-7) It characterizes love as a flaming fire. Solomon understood that true love is the very flame of God. Love is inspired by God, love is fueled and flamed by God, and love is the very substance of God...How can I love you if I don't love myself? How can I love myself, if I have not experienced Gods AGAPE Love????? xxxx ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------- Myspace Layouts
