It is Finished

Last night I drove over to Dave and Chris's to pick up the demo. Signed a check and left with the discs in my hands. I was so calm it might have been shock, all I could think was "it's over..." I didn't pop it into the 6 disc changer in my trunk. I just rode home, in silence. All the while praying as doubts, fears, and disbelief poured over me. There I was wondering the back roads that link Delaware to my Pennsylvanian driveway, and in my solemn solitude I was fighting an internal war whose main subject was faith. Reader I almost cried. It was months ago, and this demo thing wasn't even an idea. It came to me that both Cd's that I have were created with very little planning. God just provided. So much lies on this music. So much. In my mind I was pleading with God, to make the demo what it needs to be to touch people. Faith. That is the underlying theme of the entire 6 song compilation. Faith. "And if I fail, I'm gonna fail big. And If I fall, I'm gonna fall for it all." I said those words didn't I? He put them in my heart, He attached them to my mind as I wrote... I didn't have a guitar and He got me one. I didn't know how to write music and He inspired me. Is there anything my God cannot do?

So there it is, On my Myspace. You can listen to the songs listed there or download them. Enjoy!
