Staying in the SUN!



Some days I ask God why I was not given the gift to sing, and then I am in the tub and I realize that - HEY I can SING!

This revelation is often short lived, OY!!

Then I see this dude (Nick Pitera)on youtube and I am again asking, "um Why HIM!" Anyhoo, I have other gifts three of which are quite wonderful (one is unmentionable (tee Hee)) But isn't it wonderful that GOD can gift this man with such amazing talent. My pre- pubescent daughters are not fans- but they are still young, and no boy should mess with Ariel!

Many people race through life without ever finding their gift(s) and they are quite miserable because of this. I recognized one of my gifts very early- only to say "NAH". Boy was I wrong, the thing is that our gifts will chase us into the light and even into our darkest places , and they will demand recognition. Our gifts are like children- they will not be ignored, and if we spend our time attempting to force them into boxes- they will rebel and they will take -us -out.
So sing because God is watching and he will love your tune, and your melody and your 'ungodly' croaking. What he will hear is the love in your heart and the joy behind your closed eyes.
Cheers!!
