10/24/2015 1 Comment The Multitude of My Thoughts-Part IEight years ago, a prayer left my heart...”Dear Lord, I need your guidance. I want to start writing music...music with my own sound...Marcina’s genre...music in Your Truth and #love. Material that resonates in the souls of men.” Okay, maybe that’s a bit dramatic. #Realtalk, it was more like this:
“Uh Lawd, you know I’m trynna take my art to anotha’ level...will you please help a sista out?! I need some vision, some direction! I want to stop being scary and unsure of my gift, and pursue my passion, all while being mindful to show others who You are in my life. I want to make music with the true #Message.” Have you prayed to God like this before? You know you have! Well today, I am #thankful and #proud to say that God is continually answering this #prayer. In November 2015, I will be going into the studio to complete my first solo music project: #TheMultitudeofMyThoughts-Part I You may ask how the title was originated. For those who know me, and see my daily #Facebook postings, I love and believe the #Bible as the #WordofGod. I’m always posting verses that speak to me. One daylast year, I was reading a devotional entitled #ParentingwithWisdom on my #BibleApp (Side note: it’s funny how when reading this #devotion, all of the parenting advice has focused on getting my own self together, vs. getting my children together. That’s just how the #HolySpirit does it for me. Jesus puts it best, “Pluck the mote out of your own eye...[fool]!”) I digress. Fool wasn’t in that verse LOL. That’s just how I heard #Jesus say it...#SoAnyways, I was reading my devotional, and the key text was from #Psalm 94:18-19. I remember being “in my feelings,” a bit that day (which occurs from time to time), and when I read the text, I said “#yesLord.” Then, I #exhaled. I posted the text on my desk at work to etch it into my brain! Two simple, yet powerful lines: 18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy #mercy, O Lord, held me up. 19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul. These #biblical #musiclyrics have summed up where I was that day, and the many emotions I experience on a daily basis as a #wife, #mother, #friend, #sister, #daughter, #manager, #entrepreneur...every aspect of my life! Most of the time, I feel like my foot is slipping, and I’m about to fall off the cliff, stumble, whatever. But then #Godsmercy comes into play...then I am reminded of His comforts and #benefits! My soul feels delighted, and I can smile. So, I “#breatheandstop,”as my man #QTip puts it, and “give [God all I got]”. And though I was not aware of it while writing my songs, these verses actually give context of the pieces you will hear on this CD project such as Cliché and Much Fruit, plus some additional material. So, I invite you all to join me on the journey to #TheMultitudeofMyThoughts- #PartI. I #appreciate your #love, #prayers, #support, #thoughts, #ears, and #financialcontributions towards the completion of project. #Pleaseshare and #staytuned Blessings, Marcina https://www.reverbnation.com/marcinagarner #Producer #Kameseproductions #kamesepro #hopeallthesehashtagswork to #reachthemasses #jimmykimmel #scandal #TGIT #Empire #musicians #rockandroll #etc #yadayadayada |
