Today, I’m preparing myself to visit and minister at SPEAK. I’m trying not to do anything at all today as I get ready for ministry, which is no easy feat for a person like me who has to constantly be doing something to feel sane!
I’m
soliciting you guys for prayer and positive energy (you CAN solicit online
right? LOL!) as we step onto the ‘battlefield’.
I take what I do very seriously, and because I see it as ministry
(sharing the agenda of a government that is not of this world) and I know that
there is protocol that I must follow.
I
am going into an environment where I have no control over the content of the
material that the other artists will share, the music being played, or the
atmosphere being cultivated. I am
determined to go in with everything I need wrapped up in my spirit.
This
event, is truly gearing us up for our (Pen & Tongue’s) own event “Words
Unplugged”. We look forward to having
members from SPEAK there with us at Life Worship Centre because it’s exciting
to be able to collaborate with different groups…the energy is crazy! But I must keep the MAIN purpose of
interaction at the forefront…and THAT is why I have to prepare myself.
It’s
not about sounding great, or getting positive feedback on your flow…it’s about
planting positive seeds, encouraging and motivating others, and giving them
hope and peace that they have possibly been searching everywhere else for…it’s
about letting someone out there know that there is truly ‘nothing new under the
sun’ and you don’t have to struggle on your own in shame or sorrow…but someone
else has ‘been there and done that’ and is bold enough to not only SAY so, but
show you that you really don’t have to stay there. It is evangelism.
People
ask all the time why Christian artists go to secular concerts/functions/events
and I can say now that it’s because we know that we must reach out to people
who are trying to fill the void by attending these performances and meeting
them where they are. So if I only plant
ONE seed of positivity tonight, or if I only water ONE plant of faith, or even
so, if I only gather one sheave of wheat in this whitened field, then I know
that what I stand for is not in vain.
I
am willing to be that light in the darkness for the person who is afraid of the
dark.
I am J. Reign.
Hands up in faithfulness, heart full of reconciliation,
xoxo Jenna
