Our Daily Bread has started a video series. After listening to the video HERE by Wande, it’s easy to become inspired by her scriptural references and/or her final comment: “Seek the Lord first, and not the reverse!”
Show of hands – how many have heard of the performer Wande? Thanks to ODB for this exposure!
Wande’s song “Blessed Up” includes the lines:
…’Cause I’ve been blessed up (Blessed up)
I’ve been broke down (Oh yeah)
Gotta catch up (Ayy)
Gotta shine now (Oh yeah)
Running faster (Faster)
I can’t slow down (Oh no) …
In the context of our justice theme for week 2 of Advent, some of these lyrics seem germane. Gotta catch up. Can’t slow down.
The song is HERE if you have 3 minutes to listen. While it’s not necessarily the favored genre for most CP readers, it’s a good experience to hear the lyrics in this form, especially if you can have the lyrics up while listening (Wande “Blessed Up” lyrics HERE)
May all experiences of this Advent season help each of us towards justice.
Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit!
