About Me

If I had 10,000 tongues it would not be enough to praise Him. Wow, God is doing so many amazing things in my life. I am excited about the newness. I am so blessed. Sometimes we look at our current situation and think that God is not there because it is just too hard to deal with. But, if we understand in trying times God is proven time and time again because no one can get us through it like He can. Gold when heated to its purest form is transparent. You can see straight through it. The value is amazing. When we are tried in the fire we came out as pure Gold if we allow God to do His job of purifying our souls.At this stage in my life I love the Lord, and I am allowing Him to perfect me. Not as man's definition of perfection but as Gods. I am His child and I want to make Daddy proud of me. He has given me the gift of song. I don't take it lightly. Musicians have a responsibilty to not keep their gift to themselves. I love to share my gift whenever God affords me the opportunity to share it. I pray that doors of opportunity become open for you as God is opening doors for me! Be blessed!!!
