Blessings

Sometimes I take a peek at a few other blogs, just to see what the topic of discussion is for that day. Some are pretty interesting and others are just....not worth reading sometimes. In the industry that we are in, you run across so many superficial, pretentious, 'Im all that' type of women. Fortunately, I havent been on a team with those types, BUT we run in the same web circle, so you do see them. Anyway, I remember one day I was reading a blog discussion titled something like, 'What new bag have you gotten lately?' Maybe its just me, but those kind of conversations, I try to steer clear from. Granted, who does NOT like nice things? I know I do! But, I dont have to discuss it. It doesnt consume me. I have so many friends that laugh at me b/c often times I can come across as super frugal and guess what? I DO NOT CARE! Whatever name brand I have on, Im going to think Im cute- regardless. I can make the cheapest looking thing look fly! ;) But seriously, I dont hide behind name brands. Now, dont get me wrong, I have some expensive things, but I dont have to flaunt it. I think one thing my friends do admire about me is the fact that I can get whatever I want, but Ive learned being a true steward over our finances is what really matters and I know God smiles at me when Im being cheap too! lol Anyway, one of my favorite songs right now is 'God in me' by Mary Mary. Ive attached the lyrics so you can take a look at what its about. I love it b/c it takes the focus off the material things to the bigger picture, the reward God blesses us with. He said He will reward the faithful and so when I hear this song, Im reminded I too have worked hard to get what I have!
Anyway, I just thought Id share this with ya!!!

I just wanna tell the truth mayne (5x)
Verse 1: Your so fly your so high Everbody around you trying to figure out why
Your so cool your win all the time
Everywhere you go man you get alot of shine
You draw like a magnet better yet I have it
Everything you wear people say they got have it
From the sweat suit to the white tee to the gucci
You can probably say people wanna get like me
Hook: But what they don't know is when you go home and get behind closed doors man you hit the floor and what they can't see is your on your knees
So the next time you get it just tell em
Chorus:It's the God in me (5x)y
You think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
Kiki:What is it you think you see
Verse 2: You see her style you think she nice
you look at her whip you say the whip tight
You look at her crib you thinks she's paid
you look at her life you think she's got it made
but everything she's got the girl's been given
She calls it a blessing but you call it living
When it comes to money she can be a hero
She writes them cheacks with a whole lot of zeros
Hook: But what they don't know is when you go home
and get behind closed doors man you hit the floor
and what they can't see is your on your knees
If you ask her she'll tell you
Chorus: It's the God in me (5x)
you think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me
Kiki:What is it you think you seeKiki: What is it you think you see
when you see me, you see me
You don't know how much I praydon't know how much I gave
don't know how much I changed I'm just tryna explain
Chorus:It's the God in me (5x)
you think I'm so fresh you think I'm so clean
You think I'm so sweet It's the God in me Kiki:What is it you think you see
