about

Once in a Blue Moon we all have life hit us in a way that pauses our life and halts us. Many will look at this as a hindrance, while others will use this as an opportunity to reflect on who they are, and where they are going.

Time is the one quantity that you can not buy back...once it is gone, it is gone forever. We all seem to now have time on our hands, and need to use this time well, and effectively.

We can all choose to use these times to not only better ourselves, but simply take time and help others in need. If someone is in need, help meet that need. This is a song about rising above the circumstances and become what God has made you for.

Remember though, good works alone without faith will not save you, only solely placing your faith in Christ Jesus will do that...Romans 1: 16For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.”

Lets get our eyes off of ourselves and fix them upon our creator, sustainer, and redeemer. who gives us these opportunities to focus on others and not ourselves...let's not waste these opportunities.

Hebrews 12: 1Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Matthew 25: 34“Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35‘For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ 37“Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 38‘And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39‘When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40“The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’
