RIP Michael Jackson

I am the Lord your God
who teaches you what is best for you
who directs you in the way you should go.
Isaiah 48:17

"Do not be afraid Abraham.
I am your shield
your very great reward."
Genesis 15:1

Delight yourself in the Lord
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Psalm 37:4

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
A righteous man may have many troubles
but the Lord delivers him from them all.
He protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.
Psalm 34:18-20

WHERE TO START? I haven't updated in a while! I've been working, going to the chiropractor, working out, going out with friends and just got back from an amazing trip to NYC. Life's been good. God's been good to me. I have amazing friends and family that remind me how blessed I am.

The death of MJ has got me a little messed up these last few days. When I heard the news I was at work. I just kept refreshing CNN.COM to see if it was actually confirmed. All I kept hearing were rumors for about an hour. Then, it was confirmed. It didn't hit me though. I got into my car and drove home. The whole way, every radio station played a Michael Jackson song. It was the moment I heard 'Billie Jean' that my eyes began to water as I sang along to one of my all time favorite songs. It still hurts my heart. My cousins and I watched the Thriller VHS so many times that my Uncle Melton had threw it off his balconey. My 85 year old korean grandmother will sing "You are not alone, I am here with you..." and she speaks no english. Michael Jackson is my favorite artist and always will be. Music speaks no language and has no barriers! God blessed Michael Jackson with the amazing ability to touch people with his music and use his God-given talent to express himself. He motivates me to reach the desires of my heart and to seek what God has for me. God is good! All the time.
