PTL. Wayne's on our side.

I have a few post ideas for this blog for the next week or so, so be ready...



This one includes my good friend Wayne aka Lil Wayne...
My best friend Raegan and I love some good ole' Wayne music. She loves him more than I do, but whatevs. We sing it often, unashamedly. Judge us if you want. He's the best. Sure, his lyrics aren't always uplifting. Sure, he drops a *few* f-words. I'm not going to lie to you and tell you I don't jam out to his songs when they come on the radio. A recent poll was taken about Christians and Lil Wayne...

These are the results:
12.3 percent of Christians said they were open Wayne fans
87 percent lied and said they weren't to keep up a clean witness
0.7 held their ground of holiness (hats off to you all). Let's face it, Grits tried but failed us. Christian rap just doesn't cut it.

You know how Christians say "I would like so-and-so so much better if he got his life together and started loving Jesus"? Well, guys, don't you worry...Wayne isn't going to let us down like Michael Jackson did...Halleluyerrr.

THIS is for the 87 percent who lied about their love for Wayne to protect their witness to the outside world...

A few weeks ago, Wayne wrote a letter to me. I know, how nice of him...Okay, so it was to all 7.36 billion of his closest fans. This is what he sent out... Please read all the way to the end of his letter to us (you won't want to miss his last few words). http://weezythanxyou.com/2010/07/13/letter-04-as-time-flies/
In case you didn't go to that site, this is the part you do NOT want to miss...

"I know that people are inquisitive of what I do all day, so here goes. I wake up around 11AM. Have some coffee. Call my kids, and my wonderful mother. I then shower up. Read fan mail. Have lunch. Back on the phone. Read a book or write some thoughts down. Have dinner. Phone. Pushups. Then I listen to ESPN on the radio. Read the bible, then sleep. That’s my day."

Did Weezy just say "read the bible"? He didn't capitalize the "b" in Bible like a well respected Christian would, but we are getting somewhere (Get on your praying knees, sing "Victory in Jesus!" a few more times, get this situation on a prayer list right now). I can feel the excitement in the Christian community already... "Christian rap doesn't have to suck anymore! We have Wayne on our team! I can now openly admit that I love him. Imagine how this is going to revolutionize Christian rap... I was so sick of that "My life be like OOOH AHHH OOOOHHH AH" song! What a testimony he will have! PTL. P-T-L."

Get excited church, we can now come out of the closet about our love for Wayne and not feel bad about it...This is a good thing...a very good thing.

Of course, we will have to give him a classic Christian artist to mentor him (help him eliminate his tendency to use "no-no" words...)Looks like Michael W. Smith it is. Just wait til there is a song that is called "GOT JESUS" Lil Wayne feat. M daddy Smith aka Michael W. Smith. I'm calling Michael now.

This is completely sarcastic...Just in case you didn't catch it.
