2009… Keep Moving Forward! Still I Rise

i spent the end of 2008 with some very amazing people. than had the privilege to bring 2009 in with an awesometastic person. on top of that God used "Finding Nemo" and Chonda Pierce (a christian comedian for those of you who dont kno) to speak to me. so i brought in 2009 with the phrase keep moving forward. no matter the obstacle, how i’m feeling, my fears, my hang-ups, my insecurities, or anything… i am to KEEP MOVING FORWARD!!!

so, let me take this time to thank those people (they know who they are) for how they have blessed and impacted my life.

which brings me to what made me write this note in the first place. a song by Yolanda Adams "Still I Rise". here are the words and a video. i hope it blesses you. and remember no matter whats going on in your life, you are not alone, you can make, DON’T STOP PRAYING, and KEEP MOVING FORWARD!!!

Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Shattered, but I’m not broken
Wounded, but time will heal
Heavy the load, the cross I bear
Lonely the road I trod, I dare
Shaken, but here I stand
Weary, Still I press on
Long are the nights, the tears I cry
Dark are the days, no sun in the sky, yes

Chorus:
Yet still I rise
Never to give up
Never to give in against all odds
Yet still I rise
High above the clouds
At times I feel low
Yet still I rise

Sometimes I’m troubled, but not in despair
Struggling, I make my way through
Trials, they come to make me strong
I must endure, I must hold on

Chorus

Above all my problems
Above all my eyes can see
Knowing God is able to strengthen me
To strengthen me

Yet still I rise
Never to give up
Oh, Never to give in against all odds
Yet still I rise
High above the clouds
At times I feel low
Yet still I
I need to know which way to go
Yet still I
At times I feel low
Yet still I
Oh Oh Oh I rise
Yet still I rise
Oh yes I do, yeah yeah
