In The Valleys I Grow
Sometimes life seems hard to bear,
Full of sorrow, trouble and woe
It's then I have to remember
That it's in the valleys I grow.
If I always stayed on the mountain top
And never experienced pain,
I would never appreciate God's love
And would be living in vain.
I have so much to learn
And my growth is very slow,
Sometimes I need the mountain tops,
But it's in the valleys I grow.
I do not always understand
Why things happen as they do,
But I am very sure of one thing.
My Lord will see me through.
My little valleys are nothing
When I picture Christ on the cross
He went through the valley of death;
His victory was Satan's loss.
Forgive me Lord, for complaining
When I'm feeling so very low.
Just give me a gentle reminder
That it's in the valleys I grow.
Continue to strengthen me, Lord
And use my life each day
To share your love with others
And help them find their way.
Thank you for valleys, Lord
For this one thing I know
The mountain tops are glorious
But it's in the valleys I grow!

"Kisha, and John and them" Well I wanted to let you know that I love you dearly

because of the Tea Dance on Sundays......hush, that's between me and you!!!
The whole Jersey crew love you and you are in our prayers, and I know that with God
anything is possible. Just trust in him like I do and you will get through this.

Hey Cuz!
I mentioned to a coworker that I had a cousin who was a female impersonator and she said she was going to google "Harmonica Sunbeam" and see what comes up. She sent me the link to your website and I checked out some of the videos.It's an impressive body of work. I especially liked the poem "In the Valley I Grow".My sentiments exactly. Avery insightful and inspirationalpoem.
I don't know if you remember conversations we've had in the past about homosexuality and my position on it based on my chritsian ethic. I do feel compelled to mention I know that the practice is contrary to God's laws. Howver, reading that poem it is clear your striving to have a relationship with God and you are working on your spiritual growth and understanding. So God bless! Much blessings with your professional and spiritual endeavors.

It warms my heart to know that you continue to use your life to share love with others and help them find their way through this lifestyle that society still to this day, by The Highest Courts of the land...say we're not worthy of acknowledgement. Don't ever stop doing God's work....
Loving you for Chicago...Always a fan DJB
