Odd Pair?

When someone dies, all good things are said. Yet at the time the person was still living, all the mockery and curses and bad mouthing were said. I am not only talking about MJ’s. Anywhere you attend memorial, eulogy is an expected piece. And sometimes, forgive me for this confession, I could not help but be skeptical about eulogy. In my point of view, good things and good  deeds and good word must be extended when the person was rather breathing. It is good to know the dead man during memorial, but it is rather more fitting and right to show those acts of kindness when the person can still respond.

Anyway, when Brooke Shield honored Michael Jackson, I was moved and emotional. I sensed genuine friendship. And it was admirable.

MJ

The World mourns of his passing. He was a great singer… a very controversial person. Despite what he went through the world grieved for the loss. He was loved and admired for his music and great talent. Michael Jackson, King of Pop.

My Heart’s Playlist

Beautiful Lord

When the storm is raging all around me
You are the peace that calms
My troubled sea
And when the cares of this world
Darken my day
You are the light that shines
And shows me the way

Oh, the beauty of Your majesty
On the cross You showed Your love for me!

Beautiful Lord
Awesome and mighty
I’m captured by this love I see
Beautiful Lord
Tender and holy
Your mercy brings me to my knees
It’s Your mercy that has made me free
Beautiful Lord

When my sin is all that I can see
Your grace remains the shelter that I seek
And when my weakness is all I can give
Your gentle Spirit gives me strength again
And oh, the beauty of Your majesty
On the cross You showed Your love for me

And I am lifted by Your love to sing!
It’s Your mercy that has made me free!

You’re beautiful, my Lord
You’re beautiful, my Lord
