A Good Lent

I love Lent.
I love the change in breviary, routine, new additions and subtractions. Still busy, but everything is in the right priority and peace and joy abound even amidst trial. My producer, Barry is going through a trial right now. I'm concerned that the pressure might effect his creativity on this "Stations" project. Please keep him in prayer. I decided not to give him the last 6 songs for a while (not that I've even written them yet). I think 14 songs at once is too much pressure - for him AND me. 8 songs is even alot. I go to NY this month to sing stations 1,2,5,6,7 and 8 to very basic tracks.
I'm going to study some more songwriting myself so my songs don't all start sounding the same (even though they really don't - but just in case - something fresh might come) So far, we are still "on schedule" with things. That's why it's nice to give yourself a 2 year window, don't you think? Perhaps I'll be invited back to NY in the fall.
I just got back from a great gig in FL and leave for OR, Saturday. I bet I get a nice song on the car ride down. I GOTTA try... I've gotten my BEST songs so far in the car on the way to OR gigs.
Please pray for us.
