My Passion for Music!!

I have had a passion for music since a very young age. This was mainly because from as far back as I can remember there was always music playing in the house. My dad had a sizable collection of Albums from renowned artists and bands such as the Commodoes, Stevie Wonder and James Brown just to mention but a few. Also the local Methodist church that we used to go to favored music and went at great lengths to support the youth group.

In high school together with 3 friends we formed an accapella singing quartet called Christs Identity or C.I. We caught the attention of the schools choir master who arranged guest spots for us during inter-school competitions. However due to strict study schedules and economical reasons we failed to continue with our singing after high school.

Regardless of many set backs I have persisted ever since to compose and sing. I recorded a couple of tracks which unfortunately due to lack of enough publicity failed to grab much attention. Currently I am still doing my own digital production all for the love of music. I have completed the production my self titled album of 9 tracks which is out now and in moderate circulation. Your support will highly be appreciated. Holla at your boy!!

The Importance Of Prayer!

I just happened to be praying the other day which I hardly ever do, and a sudden insight struck me. You see, normally we would go to God when we are in some trouble or when we feel guilty or maybe just out of a sense of duty. Howvever, yesterday I realised that I have been wrong all along because prayer is not something we do for God but it's for ourselves. God does not need our prayers. This might sound controversial but it's true when u think about, let me explain.

What would happen if we all stopped praying? Will it stop God from doing his job? I don't think so. The sun will continue shining, rain will fall, seasons will change, baby's will be born, plants will grow, people will fall in love, the sick will recover, we will land ourselves that dream job...the list is leterally endless.

Now, imagine a world with everything in it except Man (and Wo-man). It would be like a beautiful painting hanging on the wall of an empty room. To what end would it serve if there is no one to see and admire it, to regard and to like it, even to observe and criticize it?

What prayer does is that  it opens our spriritual eyes to see the great works of the Creator. It helps us to actively acknowledge, to vividly experience and to fully understand all the beautiful tapestry of our existence. It let's us through that door into that empty room with a beautiful painting hanging on the wall.
