img_8205While in Washington D.C. on a business trip, I saw this  and it was just something that moved me. As I was siting in the park waiting for my hotel shuttle, I overheard a little boy wanting to play catch with his dad. I hear the dad agree and soon afterwards I hear the sound of a football traveling in the air. I look up and my jaw dropped when I saw the”dad” who was throwing the ball. It was an old man around his late 50’s and he was wearing suit. Now mind you, this wasn’t a cheap suit you can get for for $100.00. This was a high quality suit. It warmed my heart to see a dad take time out of his busy schedule to put a smile on his sons face. I guarantee that it will be dry-cleaned by the end of the week.  What an example of taking time for the important things in life.

My faith and my personal struggle. 

From starting my day with watching miracles from heaven to ending it with linsanity, I now know I need completely faith and submission to the lord.
I have been struggling the past month with what God wants me to do. I prayed for an opportunity and I received it. Now the opportunity just feels more like a burden than a blessing. At times, I ask “why would the lord bless me with something like this?” Or “this can’t be that bad because it’s from God.”  I was down and though it’s hard for me to admit, I was resentful. Faith in good times and faith in bad times…that’s what I am telling myself to get me thru this.
Prayers would be appreciated.

Same business trip, different country. 

Well it’s been about 8 months but I am back in the air. Part of the reason for coming back to the States was to travel less and be with the family more. Here are some texts during the two day trip. 

2:44 am – Hi. I am going to get ready to leave now. Everyone is still sleeping. Love you. 

3:15 am – in the name of Jesus as I stand in front of my girls as they sleep, I pray that the Holy Spirit bless them with a father that loves you, lives to please you and follow wherever you lead me. 

3:40 – hi. I’m now at the groome a transportation waiting for my shuttle to Atlanta. love you. 

4:07 am – Hi girls. I’m now in the shuttle heading to Atlanta now. love you. 

5:15 am – Hello again. 😊 I’m at the airport now in line for security. love you. 

7:00 am – Hi girls. I’m in the plane now and have to shut off phone. I’ll turn it on again around 9 am and will call you when you girls get home from school. love you. God bless you. 

  
10:05 am – Hi. I’m now at Washington waiting for my shuttle to take me to the airport. The airport in Washington first really look nice. The airport on Guam is nicer. love you. 

  

I took this picture around mid afternoon and it was just something that moved me.  As I was siting in the park waiting for my hotel shuttle, I overheard a little boy wanting to play catch with his dad.  I hear the dad agree and soon afterwards I hear the sound of a football traveling in the air.  I look up and my jaw when I saw the”dad” who was throwing the ball.  It was an old man around hi late 50’s and he was wearing suit.  Now mind you, this wasn’t a cheap suit you can get for for $100.00.  This was a high quality suit.  It warmed my heart to see a dad take time out of their busy schedule to put a smile on his sons face.  I guarantee that’s it will be dry-cleaned by the end of the week.

  
Day 2

7:49 am – Good morning girls.  I heard you all enjoyed Zootopia.  I wish I had a chance to watch with everyone.  Mom said she was so tired and went to sleep in the movie theater.  Lol.  Well, I am dressed up and going  to get breakfast.  My day start at 8:45 and will end around 5:00 pm.  Hey, the college I went to Seton Hall made it to their conference finals… I AM SO HAPPY FOR THIS! Have a great day…love you…God bless you…and I’ll call during lunch time.

Needless to say that my family is on my mind always. God bless us all! Till next time.

Christian Hip Hop

I love Hip-Hop.  Let me rephrase that…I LOVE MUSIC.  Born in New York, raised on Guam, and living at one time or another in every region of our country, my taste in music is as wide as the Grand Canyon.

As a Christian who loves music (especially Hip Hop) it’s increasingly getting hard to find music that uplifts me spiritually.  Sure, you have music like those found on K-LOVE but sometimes you just want to get hyped up and enjoy the bass banging from the speakers in your car.  Today, I found such a rapper that not only connected me with me college years but has now connected with me on a Christian level.

I first came across MC JIN when he would do those freestyle battles on BET back in the day.  He would then play a role in one of my favorite move franchises, The Fast and the Furious.  He played Jimmy in 2 Fast 2 Furious.  Today, MC Jin is a professed Christian.  He still sounds the same as if he was still doing battles on BET but the message has changed.  I thank God for being able to listen to something like this in my car!

Here is a sample on MC JIN with he was on a morning talk show.


Love the line – You go to church, read the bible, that’s great I applaud you, but it’s all a question of How’s your relationship with the father!

You can follow MC Jin on Twitter as well by following @iammcjin.
