Sweet Honey...

I went to see a concert the other night by Sweet Honey in the Rock....they were amazing! Jesus made it possible for me to go for free (through a friend giving me one of her tickets for the term....generous heart!) All I have to say is these ladies reach out in a very real way to what is happening in today's world. Their music speaks to the heart and the spirit, and not in a soft way, either. One of their songs was directed to heal those caught in addiction, another song reminds us that God is in all and through all, several are calls for change, especially one called "Harbour Me"....simply breathtaking. They recieved a standing ovation before the third song of the night, and not for the song, but for the introduction TO the song which was a cry for Americans (all of us in the 'West', really) to embrace love and life instead of fear and death. I was in and out of tears all night (which, as you know is normal for me!) It was a good night.
