DREAMS DO COME TRUE!!!!!!!!

Hey, everyone!

Wow! This project was a long-time coming! I am beyond thrilled to get MY completed CD for Christmas! It's AWESOME!!! I can't even tell you how excited I am to hear the songs I wrote so LONG ago and it's more amazing than I could imagine!!! I love writing songs and poems and stories. It's thrilling but the best pay off ever is to be singing a song I wrote in church and look over at someone who can totally relate to the song and a tear slides down their cheek or watch them come to the altar to pray! I love that!! I am so humbled that God would use me like that and I hope He will always be able to!
I was singing since I was 2 years old and I love, love, love singing but I am definitely rusty! I haven't sang in church in a long, long time... not like I used to anyway but when the opportunity to create this CD came my way, I jumped at it! My dad, brother, brother-in-law, and some friends of my dad's all came together to make this happen for me and I am beyond ecstatic! To think that someone would take all the time they did, use all the talent they have, and create this labor of love for me is beyond words!!
This insert says it all! If you can't read it, here is what it says:
DREAMS DO COME TRUE!
When the doctor said that I could never bare children, I was devastated to say the least. I told my dad who was the pastor of our church. We met at the church, and prayed about it, and now look at the two miracle children that the LORD has given to my husband and me. Dreams do come true!
This CD project has been a life long dream of mine. To be able to share the message in song that God has instilled in me is truly a blessing and a dream come true. I pray that all that hear this will be as blessed as I am!
Yours in Christ...Bridgett Owens
Thanks for letting me share my excitement with you!!!!!

Hugs,

That is sooo awesome Bridgett! "Thrilled for you" just doesn't explain it! I can only imagine how you must feel! I love to sing at church too and love it when God lays a song on my heart - He knows who will be there and what they need to hear. I have never written any though. I'm glad Gaod gave you that talent - where can I hear it or get one?!
