It is when one is in the wilderness that one learns the meaning of walking by faith in GOD. However … when one is In the land of plenty this is easy to forget.
I am pondering that for 2012 as I pray, make plans, and see what GOD decides to bring about for me and my dreams of HIM establishing this small company.

The last couple of months has been interesting, stressful, and surprising to say the least but I suppose, creating original music & art, while learning how to be a great business person is never easy. With that said, I must say this past year has taught me a lot more about who is willing to support In The Closet Productions mission & vision to be “a voice for the voiceless” and who is willing to support our original music and art. I am very greatful for this understanding. It allows me to move forward knowing the truth about the path I have chosen (a road less travelled) and with hopeful expectation that in 2012 God will begin to move & shake up some things for me … by making way for some of my greater requests (I made out to HIM in 2009, 2010, and 2011) to be answered. Request that I have not given up on (my greater goals) but I have faith that they will be granted in HIS perfect timing, not mine. Knowing this … I must admit … makes me very excited, motivated, inspired and looking forward to a powerful and very successful new year as a singer, songwriter, poet, spoken word artist, short film maker, public speaker, overcomer, and founder of In The Closet Productions. Knowing this makes me excited for 2012 because I trust that the tide is turning and GOD is doing something great for me and my company behind closed doors. Great things that involve a release of all the good things HE has promised me. Things that were previously held back, delayed, denied, hindered, stolen, and hidden from me. Things that I will use to be a blessing in other people’s lives.This is my prayer for 2012 (the year of RELEASE) and I trust that GOD will answer my humble petitions. In fact, He has already started to do just that … with my first successful grant application in the MUSIC industry! I am so grateful!
FACTOR has decided to be the first of many (God willing) organizations to give financial support to my musical efforts. Thank you FACTOR!
