The Motown Sound

You are beautiful today, and you will be beautiful tomorrow. You were beautiful yesterday, and there is nothing that anyone can do about that! Knowing that you are beautiful, is just as important as being beautiful! Don’t let anyone tell you anything different! God made you and when He made you there was a divine purpose in His plan. Rejoice in who you are, and know that you transform your mirror into a masterpiece every time you are in front of it!

Good day to you all! Your words of encouragement are needed today! You are exactly what someone needs today!

As a fan of music one of my favorite era’s was the Motown era. There were so many acts and so many classic songs. It was always amazing to me how a record label could grow in such a small amount of time. I studied Motown and its artist closely. They all seemed to shine. From the perfect harmony of a Four Tops song, to the crisp and precise steps of the Temptations, to the glamour of the Supremes, Motown seemed to have it all together. A lot of the acts that were on Motown were from Detroit’s inner city and they were given lessons on how to be professional recording artists. God will do the same with us. He will take us when we are tired and broken, and He will put a shine on us so that the world can see that where we were was not our final destination, it was only a stop along the way. With artist that span from the 1960’s all the way through today, everyone at some point has been touched by the Motown sound.

Dear Reader I want to encourage you to listen close to the Motown sound because if you listen close to the Motown sound you may hear God speaking to you. Understand Dear Reader that we serve an awesome God. I remember being young and lost in the world, and I remember being unsatisfied with what the world was giving me, and one day I heard the voice of God, and He said, Hello, is it me you’re looking for. He made salvation as easy as A-B-C, and as simple as 1-2-3. It was a simple decision because I could not find any joy in what the world was giving me, it was the same old song. See, God knew that I was Uptight, so he traced back the tracks of my tears and promised me endless love, and said to me that I’ll be there, all you have to do is reach out. Dear Reader I don’t want you to get caught up in superstition. God want to bring you to higher ground, and the spirit will chase you down until there is nowhere to run. And right when you stop living for the city and start living for God you realize that He was watching you from cloud 9 the whole time. Dear Reader when you are in trouble God wants you to know that there aint no mountain high enough to keep Him from getting to you! You are His child, and when you think about the love of Jesus who came down from Heaven wrapped himself in flesh and came down to earth to die for your sins, that should make you want to dance in the streets, all night long. He is the Supreme being that will be with you when everything is Smokey avoid your Temptations and, and He will work out a Miracle for you! That’s the Motown Sound!

You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
