I received a text from my cousin Sunday afternoon who said she heard "I Smile" by Kirk Franklin and it reminded her of me. I heard this song when it first came out, but at that time it did not hit me. See I talked to my cousin months ago about feeling sad(I also blogged about it) and going through a mild depression. But despite my sadness I still believed GOD was going to bring me through. Through the Winter I was nursing pain from family, work, and personal guilt. I knew that when the Spring came whatever I worked on in the Winter would come to full bloom in the Spring! So I worked over time on my healing by telling my truth! As soon as Spring Sunday morning I felt a release in my spirit! The dark clouds have moved and although their is darkness in the world I will be light!
"I Smile" speaks to me the way few other songs do! Kirk Franklin does that because our childhoods are similar so he understands pain, confusion, not feeling LOVED, and just simply being down. To go through all of that and to still smile is only GOD! Is that your testimony too? Listen to the lyrics of this song and let it heal as it did for me:)
