FAMILY!!!! Y'ALL ARE THE BEST!!!!!
Not only did you show up, you showed out!! Your presence was such a blessing at the recording on July 23! I know I'm really late but you wouldn't believe the last few weeks. God is sooooooo good and I'm humbled at His faithfulness. You all blessed me by being there and participating in the recording. You came and showed such support - I appreciate you.
We're finishing up the final edits on the recording. I'm thankful for people that operate in that area of gifting because studio engineering definitely isn't mine! That's such a tedious process. While I gave them on that night, indulge me as I give my shoutouts to the folks that made it happen. Outside of my incredible family, I want to say THANKS to:
Vocalists: Shanika Leeks, Chelsea "Peaches" West, Emoni Wilkins, Carlynn Watson, Caltomeesh "Candy" West, Latiana Dunn, Joel Buckner, Deonis Cook, Jimmy McDuffie
Band: Parris Bowen, Troy Chambers, Phil Huguely, Thad Tribbett, Leonard "Pudge" Tribbett
Producer: Myron Butler
Thanks to Michael Weatherspoon for his diligence and oversight the project.
Andrea Wilson and Keith Douglas of RKD Management for their continued support. Tasha Washington and Penny Brown for tireless support.
All of you who came and showed love and pre-ordered cd's! Thanks for continuing to sow into this music ministry. I'll be bold enough to ask that you continue to pray for me. This is just the beginning!!!
Stay posted for updates and announcements.
OH - you have to go to my Facebook Page so you can see photos from that night! The stylist Tonica Jones DID HER THING and hooked me up while Tamika Russell and Felicia Gibson worked magic on this hair and Chenese Bean made me camera ready on the makeup! I felt so special!!! 
Keep praying Family!!
TB
Kingdom Blessings to you!
Okay Family - PRAY!!!
I'M SO EXCITED, AND I JUST CAN'T HIDE IT!!! (Shout out to the Pointer Sisters) LOL!
I'm preparing for my live recording! Somebody say, "YAY"!!
I've been asked so many times, "When are you going to do a live recording?" Well, that time is now and I'm excited. Nervous . . . but still excited. Can you do me a favor? Will you pray for me and with me? I'm believing God that the recording not just be a show, but a wonderful ministry experience where His presence is tangible! I want His power to be evident and His people to experience Him in a way like never before.
My desire is for God to be pleased with this offering. Anyone that knows me knows that I always say, God is looking for a life and not just a song. I want the music to be life changing. Not because of me, but because He has something to say . . . something to convey in and through the music that will minister to the hearts of all people. Something that will change a life. Whew, so much to do and so little time.
OH - did I tell you that I'll be working with Myron Butler? RIGHT - MYRON BUTLER!!! Okay, I'll hit you with more details later. PRAY Y'ALL!! THANKS!!
Grace and peace,
Tonya
2010 is off to a blazing new start and I'm thoroughly excited. It's been said time and time again, but I still believe it with everything in me . . . and now more than ever!
GOD IS UP TO SOMETHING . . . AND IT'S ALL GOOD!!!!
Do you feel it? Can you sense it? I know we don't walk by sight, we walk by faith. But I'd like to pose a question to you that was posed to me at Revolution Christian Ministries in Grand Rapids, Michigan (big ups to Pastor Jermone and Lady Erica Glenn) - CAN YOU FEEL YOUR FAITH RISE? Woooo! Something is stirring up in me and my level of expectation is increasing! I have a new perspective on some things. My faith is rising! Even as I lay my plans and desires before the Lord, careful as not to exalt my plans above His plans for me, I sense a groaning inside that whispers to me, "come up".
Come up in your expectations from God!
Come up in your desire to see the lost come to Christ!
Come up in your aspirations to do the greater works that Christ said we would do because He goes to the Father!
Come up in your time of prayer!
Come up in the strength of the Lord!
Come up, God's people! Come up!!!
Stop thinking low!
See - I'm not really looking for more stuff. Don't we have enough stuff already? What, you don't think so? Okay, check your closet and see how many things you find that haven't been worn lately. Now before you go and start saying I don't believe in prosperity or whatever . . . I don't have anything against stuff, okay! Trust, you will see me in the store so don't trip! LOL!! But stuff is not my motivation. Don't you want to be a blessing? That's my desire. I've decided in order for me to come up, I have to think differently. I have to respond differently. I have to believe!
I FEEL MY FAITH RISING! I hope yours is too!!
