Where to begin... where to begin...

Seriously.. where the heck do I begin? .... If you read the definition of tipping point, you'll see that it is the point at which a slow, reversible change becomes irreversible, often with dramatic consequences. That's exactly what God has done for us.

I like how Goapele puts it: "I don't dive into the cold, I get in slow but everyday." Our first couple of months were like that - we got in slowly. We really didn't know what it was like to be a band.. so we took it slow. Took it one event at a time. We had our good and bad times... but through it all.. God STAYED faithful to us. Some things didn't go as well as we planned, but it only reminded us that God's ways are much higher than ours.. and better! The hard times that we went through didn't bring us down or break us apart... but rather, they shaped us into the band we are now and also molded us into the individuals we are now. The good times were reminders that at the end of every trial, there is a blessing. We truly have been blessed.

These past couple of months have been just a crazy ride with God. Earlier this year, we met AJ and Reesa through youtube (out of all places). We got along and now they're a part of the band! And they've been such a blessing to us!! So far, God is just taking us places we never thought we'd be. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the very definition of tipping point is what God has and is doing with us right now. A slow reversible change occurred and became irreversible = we all made a decision to become a band... often with dramatic consequences = God is doing great things! .. I just pray that as these "dramatic consequences" occur, we as a band will continue to look to God. We don't want to fall into the routine of things.. we want to be a band that continues to thirst for God to transform lives through music... to take us into seasons that grow and mature us into the people that God has called us to be... and through every blessing, trial and event.. we will still be praising God no matter what!.... am I making sense?? lol
