Losing my religion review.


Well my version of a review.  
This post is long over due.(well all my reviews are; just watch out for them *wink*). I have procrastinated this for a very long time (yeah not my finest quality, I'm a work in progress). I downloaded this album on 18th November 2015 and I'm just writing a review. (smh) .

The list of tracks on the album are in a sequential order; one track precedes another.

*The first track; Losing my religion is a monologue. Basically the vicissitudes of life.

*Miracles follows. I mean after the ups and downs of life, of course miracles are bound to happen. My favorite phase is 'My life is a miracle, can't deny it I'm a miracle.

*123 Victory is next on the track; one of my favorite. It sounds like something for cheer leading (lol) . It even begins with 'Hey Yo 123 Victory!'

*Road Trip; is nothing short of beautiful teaching (well me) that the joy is in the journey and how awesome the end of the trip would be. Its a daily reminder to be honest. That our trip on this side of eternity is for a while (though it would be difficult) and the end would be glorious.

*Pray for me; Even has the Lord's prayer in it. It reminds me of Underestimate Prayer Link. Pray just too important. Every religion believes in prayer; I mean prayer is bae sef (lol)

*Wanna be happy; This one is a must listen too. If you don't even download the album, just please download and listen to this track. Like who doesn't want to be happy? But we keep doing stuff that doesn't make us happy. 'The truth can hurt you or the truth can change you'

*It's Time featuring Tasha Page Lockhart and Zacardi Cortez; bottom line; there's no sound sweeter than when God says it's time. God's time is always the best.

*True Story; my favorite line is 'Everyday we say, Lord, please help me I'm lost, don't leave' because I don't know about you I say this everyday. That's one of my prayer points 'Lord don't leave me to myself' (That's my own true story *smiles sheepishly*)

*Over; bottom line 'If God says its not over; get up cause its not over'. This phrase was repeated several times to emphasize that if you have breath its not over. (So izz NOT all over Jackie *smiles sheepishly*)

*When featuring Kim Burrell and Lalah Hathaway; is a question, I asked Jesus everyday. When would you come take me home? earth is tiring abeg. Its a very nice piece which reminds you that there's a home waiting for you.

*My world needs you featuring Sarah Reeves, Tasha Cobbs and Tamela Mann; very solemn song, in fact you can play it for a child to sleep (grins). In these times to be honest we need Jesus more than ever.

*Intercession; in layman terms 'EPP me'. Jesus our intercessor. This songs helps you to take time out just to appreciate the intercession Jesus does for you. Just look at how it starts:
Jesus please mention my name when you talk to your father today
Life down here feels so strained my brokenness is in the way
I'm not that good
Don't pray like I should
Yet I'm amazed you get me through
He see's me but he hears you.

*And finally No sleep tonight; not a TGIF song oh biko (lol). I'll say its like a charge for evangelism because He was saying 'let's talk about love, life, faith, patience, grace, forgiveness, if not whose gonna sleep tonight.


Yeah. That's it guys. If you haven't heard of Losing my religion by Kirk Franklin, err are living under a rock? If you haven't downloaded the album please what are you waiting for??


With love, theInspiredCutiee 

If you’ve been following these series, you know they started off as a rant, but I decided to be inspiring, (as usual, hehe). If you haven’t (where have you been!) – you can read the Kick Off , Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 . I concluded part 3 saying watch out for myth 3… (still watch out!) ‘I thrive on purpose’, ‘I exist because of purpose’, so what then are the things I should be conscious of during this phase? Literally what lessons should I gather from my singleness? This requires a critical look at Genesis 2: 8-17: 1.       Place: God has a purpose for every place He puts me, He wants me to see, learn something before He can show me the next step. For example; He placed me in my family for a reason. Ironically many (myself inclusive) place ourselves and source for a person or people to validate this place we’ve placed ourselves. Even more sadly, many (myself inclusive) fight the place God has placed us. 2.      Pu...

Short story type of day

I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

List

As we countdown hours to the end of the year, in every corner there seem to be lists of things that happened this year; they maybe favorite or worsts, or top experiences or things that made history, sha lists. (you get my drift right?). I don't think I have sat down to draw up a 'list' well expect when I was applying for a job and they specifically said give 10 reasons why we should hire you. Yeah that happened. Lol. So I have been thinking, really thinking. A whole lot can happen in a year, emphasis on  'whole lot'. Except you write every detail of what happens daily and not miss a day (I wonder if there are people that are this deep) you are bound to forget some things. The movie 'INSIDE OUT' depicted how our mind works. (If you've seen it; you have an idea of what I'm talking about, if you've not I don't know what you are waiting for) There are too many things that have happened this year for me as an individual, in fact as a...
