Spiritual side of music: The Script: Hall of fame

Unlike most songs of 2012 this is a motivational song not about relationships or breakups. It is about working hard doing your best. It tells us that if we work hard at what we want we will get to it. This isn't the full truth though. We can't achieve anything at the highest level without God. If I was to get really religious on this we could say that the "Hall of fame" is the halls of the courts of God. That we have to work hard to be the best Christians we can be. Having a living relationship with God is not easy. You will be put down and bullied about it either now or later in life. We need to dedicated to our relationship with God to even reach the "Hall of fame". "The world is gonna know your name". God should be our world. We need to work hard at our relationship and dedicate ourself to God and he will know our name for the good reasons and not our bad.

2012: A Year in Review

This will be my last post of 2012. What an amazing year it has been. I have been through a lot this year. Relationships were built and destroyed. I have met some people I have gotten really close to and will be forever close to. My faith has only grown. After going to leaders camp at Sonshine Ranch I have become serious about my faith. It take work to keep my friendship with Jesus up to scratch. Its still not perfect and it never will be but its a work in progress. There has been things I wish I could go back and change, redo and stop, but thats not going to happen. I have to work with what I've got and trust in the lord with all my heart. This blog has kept me going, knowing that people are reading, relating and replying to what I have been through. I am however running out of ideas. If there is anything you would like to see written about PLEASE tell me. I have a few 'Spiritual side of music' pieces written and will publish those over the christmas holidays. T...

Hoofin it 2012 reflections

2012 is almost over and I got back from Hoofin it yesterday.  A large topic at camp was friendship vs relationship.  Hans taught a lot on why we should have friendships that become relationships after time.  Hoofin it was amazing. I got to know a whole bunch of people over the 4 days and friendships with people grew. It was an amazing time of fellowship with people and God. Its an experience that cant be described by words and has to be experienced to believe.  It was an amazing way of ending the year of 2012.

Silence

I haven't been posting anything for a while and I feel bad about it but thanks to Rosie i'm back and will start trying to do at least one a week. On my time off I have spent allot of time talking with people and explaining my childhood to them. Basically how I turned out who I am today. I mentioned the fact that I was a very quiet kid who would just sit around and listen to people. That is why I can do what I am doing now and feel good about it.  Because I was silent I learnt quite allot about how people work, talk, relate and handle issues. This has helped me in my more recent years.  God made us with 2 ears, 2 eyes and 2 nostrils but only 1 mouth. Dont you think he was trying to get a message across. If you havent picked it up yet, its that we need to use our other senses more than we use our mouth. We need to just sit there and listen to people and make a mental note of whats going on.    The same principle ca...
