So what did you think? Did you love that or what?

I confess to you that while I have heard of Kirk Franklin, I have never listened to his music, nor would I have known who he was had I seen him on TV or elsewhere. However, yesterday I was catching up on my recordings of Life Today with James and Betty Robison. For you Beth Moore fans, every Wednesday on Life Today is “Wednesdays with Beth.” Click on this link to view online the previously televised teaching series taught by Beth on Life Today (but not until after you have finished reading this post :->).

So I was watching last Wednesday’s episode of Beth’s teaching, and she mentioned this song. She was talking about how she has recently been in a season of sadness and grief. Apparently, she loves her some Kirk Franklin. She was preparing to speak not too long ago and while listening to Kirk Franklin, he asked the question in his song, “Do you want a revolution?” Beth said it was like she heard the words for the first time, and she turned to the speakers on her iPod and said, “Yes!”

This really resonated with me. I went and found the video on GodTube hoping to not only listen to the song but to include it in a post. The truth is, I want a revolution, too.

I have been in a dry season of late. I feel disconnected. It’s like my whole world is in total chaos. Life doesn’t stop because I’m feeling this way. There’s still laundry to do, errands to run, groceries to buy, meals to prepare, appointments to keep, etc., etc., etc.

The truth is, I’m tired. I don’t like feeling this way. I think there are a number of factors at work here, and I will talk more about some of that tomorrow.

Do I want a revolution? Yes! Do I know who can give me one? Yes! How about you?

I know I said we would have answers to foundation questions today, but that’s going to have to keep for a couple of days. For today, watch this video and then check back tomorrow to read what God spoke to me about today.

I have returned from vacation. Sorry I didn’t post while out of town. I’m afraid I had a momentary lapse of reality when I thought I would blog while I was away. However, I am now back to life and the real world, and I will be answering your questions over the next several days.

By an overwhelming majority, the most common question was what to do about dark circles under the eyes. Chelsea mentioned the Mary Kay concealer. Girls, you absolutely MUST have a yellow concealer for the dark circles under your eyes. Concealer in general is a good idea, but yellow concealer specifically is your best friend when it comes to hiding dark circles and blemishes. Now, of course, being a Mary Kay Consultant, I use the Mary Kay concealer. I can not speak to others, but I am so sold on Mary Kay products, I will not use anything else.

I know that some of you are thinking that a yellow concealer sounds weird. I promise you can blend it with your foundation. I will address foundation issues in my next post, so stay tuned for that.

Concealer will only hide the circles, though. I will tell you that Mary Kay now has a product that treats the causes of dark circles. I am sure some of you are dubious, but I have used the product, and it really works. I used to have horrible dark circles under my eyes. While they are not completely gone, they are markedly improved. The product is the Timewise Targeted Action Eye Revitalizer.

I took pictures before I started using the product so that I would have a before and after testimonial to show, but unfortunately, the pictures just didn’t really capture the dark circles to adequately be able to show the real story. So, you’ll just have to take my word for it.

Now, I am not trying to sell you Mary Kay products. As I stated before, I am a consultant, and since these are the products I use, they are what I know.

If you do not have a Mary Kay consultant, though, or haven’t tried their products before, I do encourage you to find one and ask her about this product. You can go to the Mary Kay website, click on the link at the top that says “Shop Online with an Independent Beauty Consultant,” type in your zip code, and it will locate a consultant for you.

Check back tomorrow when I will address various foundation issues.
