in the city of Compton, on the corner of El Segundo and Wilmington, there sits a rather small looking church called Greater Zion Baptist Church. i have never been the SUPER religious person, BUT i have always believed in a higher being.
.... its just amazing how things in life fall into place....
SO I GUESS I HAVE TO START AT THE BEGINNING.....
far past - i lalaLOVE lauryn hill. she is one of my favorite artists. now, ms. hill has a track called Zion or To Zion on her miseducation of lauryn hill album. now that song is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, i sing it all the time, though i cant sing. i just love it.
recent past - now due to life, our family of threee had to share TWO cars. so i would have to pikc my mom up from work. now while pikcing her up from work i ALWAYS passed GREATER ZION, and truth be told, i only noticed it because the word "ZION" caught my eye. and i thought, "that sounds like a cool name for a church, i'm gonna stop by there one day and chekc it out".
...so i continued to pick my mom up from work for some months and never stopped by.
present - about two months ago, i quit my job at ross. about a month ago, i got hired at best buy, and about two weeks ago i rang up a customer... who happened to be the pastor of Greater Zion Church Family.
HOW CRAZY IS THAT!?!?!?
..... rest of the story condensed. i went to GZCF and i ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY LOVED IT. there was no better place for me to be. and i guess it was in Gods plan. it had to be. because thinking bakc, i was put in a certain place at a certain time for a reason. this is really crazy. this is what God wanted. and this is how i got there.
truly amazing.
w/ love
