Kirk Franklin

April 2, 2008

I recently bought his CD. Well, yesterday for sure.

Kirk Franklin, one of great gospel singers out there.
I used to download his songs from Limewire (Real piracy huh? Well.. :p) since there was no Kirk’s record distributed here in Indonesia (I knew him from TBN). Yet, I’m so blessed that Pondok Pujian has many "rare" CDs in store. Maranatha distributed all those "rare" gospel CDs recently. Jonathan Butler, Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton, and many more. And here I am, with not much money left (again) since yesterday. This is my weakness people!

I’m blessed with Kirk’s CD, The Rebirth of Kirk Franklin.
From the first track, the drama, real events in life, all the spirit-uplifting songs, and his writing on the CD’s cover. This writing is what I want to share in this post.
If you’re somewhere out there, you are not alone.

"When God allows the breaking process to happen in a believer’s life, it can and will be a very dark time.
Picture Job           : crying over the bodies of his dead children.
Picture Joseph    : betrayed by his brothers for twenty dollars.
Picture Jesus      : sweating in anguish over His fear, and God’s will.
So, for every reader who is caught in between
life and death, smiles and sorrow, you and Him…..
Rejoice! For your rebirth is near."
Train up a child.. and when he grows up, he won’t depart. - Gertrude’s boy (Kirk Franklin)

It is true.. Rejoice is the key, and Jesus is the door. It is true.

Thank you Lord. I love You; and I want to learn to put this woman, Chrisje, into Your mighty and valor hands. Never thought that learn how to lay in green pastures would be like this. Rejoice! For our rebirth are near.
