"He who has ears to hear, let him hear!" (Matthew 11:15)

I decided to write this blog because it's been something on my mind for quite some time. Last week I was in a friend's car and she stated to me "So you don't listen to any R&B or anything". And I replied, "No". She said "Oh I don't think I can do that". I was like well at first it was a challenge. I was one of those people who believed there wasn't anything wrong with R&B music as long as their wasn't any cursing. Haha little did I know that the Holy Spirit was going to put me in my place. A few years back my sisters in Christ (NAL) showed me a video called "The Truth About/Behind Hip Hop".

"Are you listening to me? Really listening?" (Msg. Bible) Matt.11:15

or

"It is obvious what kind of life develops out of trying to get your own way all the time: repetitive, loveless, cheap sex; a stinking accumulation of mental and emotional garbage; frenzied and joyless grabs for happiness; trinket gods; magic-show religion; paranoid loneliness; cutthroat competition; all-consuming-yet-never-satisfied wants; a brutal temper; an impotence to love or be loved; divided homes and divided lives; small-minded and lopsided pursuits; the vicious habit of depersonalizing everyone into a rival; uncontrolled and uncontrollable addictions; ugly parodies of community. I could go on.This isn't the first time I have warned you, you know. If you use your freedom this way, you will not inherit God's kingdom. (The Msg. Bible) - Gal. 5:19-21
