I want to mention this new Novelty T-Shirt Line, I have the priviledge to have been blessed by a brother that will go un-named, he blessed me with one of these Tee's, very simple design and to the point, the name of the label is B3AR FRUIT! The idea behind the name is simple, Believers should be bearing fruit! This is a verse form the Bible pulled from their BLOG, "For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, for each tree is known by its fruit."
They only have two designs right now, but they are tight! This one is their second design, these shirts are limited editions:
This is the one I got, the one that set it off! Thank you brother, you know who you are, I really appreciate the gift!
"JUST LIKE YOU" Lecrae featuring J.Paul you can purchase it @ iTunes. Hot song, really heartfelt, inspires me to be a better dad, which is challenging more often than not. Thank you Lecrae.

Sometimes, I come to my Blog and get ready to post, however, I then proceed to lose interest. This is the general feeling I been having lately, with almost everything I do. I call these times seasons of calamity, or depression. Whatever you prefer, it really doesn't matter to me, I have struggled with this for the majority of my life. As a Christian, Jesus has helped me through His Word, to set my mind on things from above, and the Scriptures have honestly helped me when I struggle. But never the less, I continue to struggle. I have accepted this as a thorn, I have read about many men of the faith, that I respect, such as Charles Spurgeon to name one, that had deep bouts with depression.
Depression is difficult to understand especially if you don't struggle with it. It's roots are stem from historical events, and of course sin. I can honestly say that my depression for the most part deals with a great portion of pride and selfishness. I fall into this pity party, though I don't communicate this, I know this. Hopelessness overtakes me, and I tend not to see the great things of this life and the wonderful splendor of my LORD. I forget about the blessings and gifts He has graced upon me, such as my salvation, my wife, my children, my family, and everything else.
I have heard many say that if I struggle with depression, how is it that I can be saved. That to me is such an ignorant comment or ideology. I know many Christians who have diseases, hardships, struggles and difficulties, what makes depression different than these ailments? It's not different, it's just different, if that makes any sense. I don't blame anyone, not even the Devil, though I know his plans are to destroy me, I look at this struggle as something the Lord has allowed for a purpose, and the fact is that I may struggle with this for the rest of my life, and thats ok. The reason I say it's ok, it's simple, God is God, He is Sovereign, all powerful, and who He is is not contingent on who I am or struggle with, I am a mere man, and in essence His creation, therefore, inferior. I have no issues with that, I have been graced with the opportunity to live and die, and ultimately reside with Him forever.
This is my life. Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Now for some music updates 2 Projects I'm excited about about here they go:
Trip Lee's album "Between 2 Worlds" Dropping June 22, 2010

Here's the tracklist: 01. Real Life Music (DJ Official) 02. Snitch (JR) 03. Invade ft. J. Paul (DJ Official and Joseph Preilozny) 04. Prognosis (DJ Official and Jospeh Preilozny) 05. No Worries (G-Styles, Co-Produced by Alex Medina) 06. Covenant Eyes ft. PRo (Tony Stone) 07. Life 101 ft. Chris Lee (Cheese) 08. I Love Music ft. Sho Baraka (DJ Official and Joseph Preilozny) 09.

DJ Official killed this Beat, and J.A.Z. and Magellan ripped it! This is very encouraging and definitely places New York on the MAP! I gotta say that right now, these dudes are the only dudes doing it for NY!! PERIOD!
I love the Black and White, and the cinematography is sick!!
This joint is nice, right in time for Valentine's Day. Ha Ha, Sho Baraka is sick!
I been working on an essay, more like a sermon in a report form, concerning networking sites, such as Facebook, MySpace, Hi5, Twitter, and the likes. Many people wont like what I got to say, but I am basing my opinion on Scripture, and the characteristics of a Christian. Of course there will always be exceptions to this concern, my observation isn't towards those who fit the exception, however, this issue rides such a thin line, that it will offend even those who do it with genuine humility and concern. I only ask that everyone examine themselves when reading my essay, remember that I am not claiming to be perfect or have it all together, but with the popularity of networking sites and lack thereof humility and ever growing self centerness, I truly feel the need to address this matter, not that many people read my blog, but hopefully those who do will extend the essay (I give permission) to post on their own networking pages and challenge those in their circles. This is gonna simply be a call to repentance and humility. I ask, would Paul, Luke, Matthew, Mark or John post such things that go on most of our networking sites??? I personally don't have a Facebook or anything like it (tried it 3 times though, this blog is the closest thing) and it just rubs me the wrong way. The self-centerness, and focus of "ME", (I just bought this, I just did that, Just spent time praying to the Lord< Just ate this and that, Me, Me, Me, blah, blah, blah) honestly, all this disgusts me. Too much me, not enough HIM! Anyways, when I'm done, I will post this essay; comment, block me, dismiss me, reject me or whatever, but consider this "Am I violating basic Christian Characteristic principles through my personal networking site, if so what should I do differently?"
So Official's dropping a compilation with many features, reminds me of classic Reach/116 stuff (which I love) here is the Album Artwork, the single and the Tracklisting. This single features LeCrae and Flame, song name is Show Off!! Enjoy see ya soon! Pray for the Brethren in general, we all need it! Oh almost forgot, there is going to be various versions of the project, check em out HERE and Pre-Order too!!
There's some surprises on the project, that got me wondering (uh, 2/3's of ADF, hint hint) should be interesting, I hope this project isnt disappointing. the single is coo, but I'm looking forward to the Trip Lee, Evangel, Stephen the Levite, & Thi'sl appearances, def interesting!!

Mortality By Spurgeon We do not realize our mortality unless we are startled into a recognition of it . We believe others to be mortal, and are not much surprised when they fall; but we have a secret notion that no axe will for the present be laid at our root. Yet reason would lead a man to say, 'It happens to many suddenly to die, why should it not happen to me?'
A Plea to the Unsaved by Spurgeon There are some of you standing in these aisles and sitting in these pews, who I feel in my soul will never have another invitation, and if this be rejected to-day, I feel a solemn motion in my soul--I think it is of the Holy Ghost--that you will never hear another faithful sermon, but you shall go down to Hell impenitent, unsaved, except you trust in Jesus now. I speak not as a man, but I speak as God’s ambassador to your souls, and I command you, in God’s name, trust Jesus, trust now. At your peril reject the voice that speaks from Heaven, for “he that believeth not shall be damned.” How shall you escape if you neglect so great salvation. When it comes right home to you, when it thrusts itself in your way, oh, if you will neglect it how can you escape? With tears I would invite you, and, if I could, would compel you to come in. Why will you not? O souls, if you will be damned, if you make up your mind that no mercy shall ever woo you, and no warnings shall ever move you, then, sirs, what chains of vengeance must you feel that slight these bonds of love. You have deserved the deepest Hell, for you slight the joys above. God save you. He will save you, if you trust in Jesus. God help you to trust him even now, for Jesus’ sake. Amen.
