On This Journey

This has been a long journey,

Looking out across the blue sky as I travel on wheels covered by the blood of Jesus,

On a journey, looking across the sky as a pink yellowish color appears as the sun sets on California,

This beautiful land as God made it,

I have seen many things on this journey,

So many of God’s children are homeless and as I walk along the sidewalk of San Francisco there is a man in old torn clothes, holding a cup out asking for spare change,

I walked right by him, then something came to my mind, I realized I could be a blessing to someone else,

And something so small could make a big difference, so I turned back around, reached into my pocket to get some change and dropped it into the man’s cup,

And he rejoiced with a thank you!

My heartfelt good as I heard the coins land into his cup,

And now I realized that that sound meant that there is hope in his future for whatever he may need, and that sound to me meant that, that was a great opportunity to help someone else,

I have seen so many things on this journey,

I have seen many mountains and hills, more than you could keep up with counting,

Traveling from city to city, seeing God’s creations and knowing that God is alive, I have seen people do anything for money, women on the side of the road,

A lady playing an instrument, and a Michael Jackson impersonator,

At the end of the day, I realized that people were doing that because they are just trying to make it.

That is what we all should be trying to do, make it!

 

I was on Summer Tour with a group of singers from Southwestern Christian College of Terrell, TX. We were on the road for 30 days in a van, traveling from city to city, and state to state. When I was out there all I felt was the opportunity for people just trying to make it, and as Christians, we are trying to make it to Heaven.

Thank you Summer Tour family; Shawn Ford, Mar’Ja Miller, Marc Holmes, Amanda Godin, Toryan Fitzgerald. Matthew Johnson, Te’ara Hedgemon, Jerricoe Jackson, Jared Jarrett, Gabrielle Shaw, Nicholas Hooper, and my Tour Dad, Andrew Braxter. Love you guys always and forever. My music directress; Stephanie Booker Wilson and Jeanetta Norris
