Kirk Franklin

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 

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...

Lauren Daigle

Lauren Daigle is a contemporary christian music singer. I absolutely love her voice. She speaks to your soul and situation.  Her music is exceptional; but my favorite two are: How Can It Be and Trust In You. The first time I heard 'How Can It Be' I was in tears.. Sigh.. Like I said she speaks to your situation. That moment of my life I felt inadequate of God's love and then I heard this song.  Just take a moment to look at the lyrics:  http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/laurendaigle/howcanitbe.html 'Trust in you' is nothing short of her amazing voice, again the lyrics blow me away. The chorus is always a reminder: When You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to move When You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk through When You don’t give the answers as I cry out to You I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You! I always ask myself; can I still trust God when He doesn't give me the answers I want? Can I still be genuinely gra...

The Halo Effect

Are you exhibiting the halo effect? Do you buy products because of the celebrity representing it? Or stay in a relationship that is wrong because of one good quality? We are all attracted to people all the time. What attracts us to others? And what attracts you? When you meet someone for the first time you draw a conclusion about them, subconsciously you decide whether you like them or not. BUT is it possible that one trait or aspect of one's character can influence your perception about them? Honestly, I judge a person's character based on their physical appearance, its a quick judgment that is very likely inaccurate. The good thing is that once I begin to have a conversation, I realize there's more to the person than just physical looks. (Well that's for those that are actually more than their looks). The halo effect can cloud our judgment even when we know about it. When one good quality spills its appeal unto other elements of a per...
