Today, don’t you dare giving up no matter what things look like or how you feel! #NevaGiveUp #HaveFaith
You might be aware of my upcoming album release “Everything To Me” Saturday November 21, 2015 at Good Samaritan Located at 711 David Rd Lawrenceville, Georgia
While I am stoke about this and so grateful to God for this project, I can’t help to pause and share the following words. I know if you are an Artist or have a gift of any sort and worked on a project and you are passionate about your gift. You can definitely relate on how discouraging that journey can be. Yes, there is light at the end of the tunnel because God will never enpregnanted you with something He won’t and can’t help you birth. He ALWAYS make provisions. Not only He qualified who He calls but He equipped who He called.
Truth is, recording and releasing an album as an independent artist is hard work. It took me 5 years! I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I gave up, I had to scratch it and started over and over…. Time, energy, money……prayers…Even with great marketing tools such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media sites, most people still will look at your post and be like “uh…who cares? Why should I support you? Who are you again?” Or they will LIKE, SHARE your posts with no intention of ACTUALLY supporting you and purchasing anything. Can you blame them? They might have giving up on their own dream or call. Their journey isn’t your journey. Hah!🙄🤓 However, you MUST do whatever it is that you do and keep pushing through. Don’t give up! Don’t do it for LIKES. Do it because God commended you to do it and it is in you to do. Don’t let friends and family discourage you or stop you from believing in what God has commended you to do. It’s in you to do. It’s in your heart to do. God has instilled it in you not in them.
You may never be at peace until you surrender to what He has called you to do/be and until the call is fulfilled. The scripture reminds us that “As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. —1 Peter 4:10
Whatever your gift is and whatever He called you to do/be, stay connected to THE SOURCE! The one who called you. FOCUS! Keep your eyes in the PRIZE, which is JESUS! The AUTHOR, The Finisher of our faith!— [Hebrews 12: 2]
The One & Only All good and Perfect come comes from! —[James 1:17] The Gift Giver!
