Equality makes history in my home state!!!

January 6, 2015 / Momma-Ashley Rose / Blog

I am so emotional and excited that today January 6th 2015 Florida has made it possible for Marriage Equality to happen!!! WOOHOO!!! This is an exciting time in our history!!! More and more states are realizing the importance. As i sat and watched videos of weddings all around the state this morning my eyes filled with tears of Joy and excitement. I watched over 50 couples marry in downtown orlando watched couples who have been together 40 plus years finally have the same rights as others have… it is so exciting.. as i watched the Video and listened i head screams and shouts yelling slander and hatred from people who call them selves “christians” or “believers”… the hatred spewed “scriptures from the sacred texts of the Bible.. But I saw political leaders quote beautiful Love scriptures from 1 Corinthians… Seeing the hate and love coming from the same sacred texts… My heart breaks… I want everyone to know more than anything that you are LOVED, ACCEPTED, AND WANTED!!!! soooooooooo NEVER FORGET THAT!!! Lets embrace the Love and acceptance that God has for us… and continue to spread Gods Love and Grace to ALL PEOPLE!

Witnessing so many that were touched by the events of this night made my heart glad! Many of us had loved seeing them performed for the first time, myself included. Seeing their fears of the unexpected wash way and replaced by joyous participation touched me!

When I was approached by Momma-Ashley Rose just over two months ago about being a part of a gospel show I was a bit intimidated because of my poor self-image concerning my ability to ‘entertain’.

I compared myself with other performers who seem to just electrify the stage with their presence but this was different in many important ways that helped me to say yes to Momma and start the journey to prepare for her benefit show.

The idea of focusing on worship rather than competing with the previous performers was liberating. In addition I have always wanted to share my faith in some manner that was genuine and that would be appreciated.

The time spent with the other performers was precious. They were fun to work with and kept me laughing. Momma took great care of us with food and encouragement.

I believe I have a more defined mission for my life going forward. I have always enjoyed ministry whether it was one on one or in a group setting. Momma has awakened buried gifts in me I look to polish and refine.

Thank you all for your sacrifice and perseverance. I look forward to joining you all again!
