Thoughts Over Tea

Sun, 20 May 2012 22:35:00 -0700

Friday, I got the news that my short film did not make it into the “A Place Called Sacramento” Film Festival by Access Sacramento. I had so many incredible responses from the script with people being so deeply touched that I thought it had a good chance. So I was slightly disappointed and shocked when I got then news. And then I remembered last years films and I suddenly understood why my faith-based and inspirational film didn’t make the cut.

And then suddenly I was glad. Why? Because it gave me so much more freedom to take the time and do the film the way I feel the Lord showed it to me. It gave me time to get over the last of Mark’s chemotherapy sessions. It gives me the chance to get settled on the next step of a job or career. It gives me and my business partner a chance to get the production company more solidified. It give me a chance to get more into my school on the filmmaking side. It gives me a chance to spend time with my son as he graduates and moves out of the house for college. It gives me time to let things settle back into normal.

Is this movie going away? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! In fact, it will become more of a reality now more than ever. It will be completed sometime this year. And then what? Well, that’s up to God!

Thank you to all of my friends and family who have kept me and my family in prayer. It’s been such an incredible, hard yet surreal journey.

All of my love,

Rebecca

Are you struggling with bad habits or lack motivation? Do you find that you put off later those things that could be done today? Have you asked yourself, “Where do I start?” God has the right vision, motivation, and direction for your life. He has made provisions for us to overcome any obstacle that we may face. Ask God to help you in these areas and move forward in trust that he will provide the support that you need.

Last night I was at the Rock House of Prayer in Roseville and the Lord touched me so completely. He is lifting me out of my wilderness and carrying me in His arms. And this song is exactly what He is singing over me. Worry not, my beloved, I am with you!

Completeness

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 13:19:10 -0700

I have been listening to the book “Attributes of God” by A.W. Tozer via Audible. I have tried to listen to it before but my heart was dull and my ears full of wax. Since opening my heart back up to the Lord with open arms and asking Him to change me from the inside out, I had decided to listen to it again. What a treasure chest full of insight on the incredibleness of God. And it made me realize that I thought a job, or a position, or insurance would make me happy. That’s like looking at a mustard green and expecting it to fulfill my everlasting hunger! My temporary hunger, yes. But not the hunger deep within my soul. Only the Lord God, Yahweh, our Elohim can truly be the source of complete and everlasting fulfillment. And in looking back to the past 6 months I can truly say that the Lord has completely sustained us. Even in our fears. Even in our lack. The Lord has provided. And even more so, God will continue to provide. No matter whether it’s home, filing papers in an office, filming a video, recording behind a microphone or answering phones. God will sustain.

He IS my completeness. Nothing more…nothing less! Selah!

All of us experience difficulty or a loss of some kind. Whether it be a loss of a loved one, a job, or just peace. Sometimes it is difficult to come to grip with the fact that not all of the bad things that happen to us, are bad for us.

Dreaming

Thu, 12 Apr 2012 11:05:00 -0700

It’s been a long long time

Like sunrise shattering the dark of night

You reach out and your touch

Ignites a passion long forgot

Stirring something sacred within while I’m

Lying in the interim of reality and sleep

Colors like Van Gogh explode before my eyes

As the feelings rush to my head like

Some rich, aged wine

Forgive me, Love,

For allowing the memory of your

Touch dissolve with the days

How could I have allowed the daily grind

Sing my passion to rest without some fight

For not putting aside cares of this world

To unite a moment with eternity

To sleep and yet to wake with you

Peaceful by my side

My mind now alive since last we met

All the while dreaming

Mark and I went to go see Dr. Laing (Mark’s radiologist) to go over the results of his scan. The results were amazing to see. I don’t know about you but this is proof that God is working miracles only after 8 rounds of chemo! Praying that Mark makes it through to remission!

Reflections

Thu, 12 Apr 2012 00:03:20 -0700

Sometimes they come

Like a gentle breeze whispering softly into your soul

Other times

They overtake your senses with a

Fury of emotions at times to hard to handle

But they are there

As part of your as the next breath you take

Don’t deny them

You must observe them

As if they were some

Hidden voyeur to the daily lives of another

And yet we must author them

As our pen fluidly proclaims

Where we came from

Who we are

And who we are to be

So I bare open my soul

And gaze upon its many Reflections

Mark is in great spirits going into his 9th round of chemo. His faith and peace through it all. He says the key is knowing spiritually that things are better on the other side. The hardest part, he says, is facing what it will do to me and the kids. Incredible man!

Have you battled depression or thought that you had it all together? Suffered loss or experienced broken relationships? God can refresh, heal and restore you. He searches for the lost and desires, more than anything, for His children to Come Home.

abitofforever:

We are honored to have brought on board David Eugene Ivey as the composer for our movie. I have had the distinct pleasure of singing and writing with David for the past 10 years. He is an incredible talent and is one of Sacramento’s best kept secrets, until now.

David has been playing music for over 30 years and has absorbed the music of many great artists to form his own distinct and sound. From Pat Metheny, Peter Gabriel, Journey, John Denver, Coldplay, Jai Utal, Pink Floyd, The Greatful Dead and David Lanz as being some of the strongest influences in his music. He was honored to be used in the short film Are You My Girlfriend? in 2010, included in the upcoming film No Parking and featured in a recent article by SacTV.

The song Improvising The City was created while David was on vocal rest after some throat surgery and is available for download on SoundCloud. You can also follow him on his Reverb Nation, Tumblr and Twitter accounts.

Do you sometimes wonder if God hears you when you pray? Do you feel as if you can’t hear God’s voice or understand when or how he speaks to you? God hears and He answers….

Senate Crowd Funding Bill - S2190

Fri, 23 Mar 2012 16:28:00 -0700

Senate Crowd Funding Bill - S2190:

(From Reelgrok’s website)

The Senate is about to vote on a bill to amend the securities laws to provide for registration exemptions for certain crowdfunded securities, and for other purposes. The act is known as the ‘‘Capital Raising Online While Deterring Fraud and Unethical Non-Disclosure Act of 2012’’ or the ‘‘CROWDFUND Act’’.

If you need to raise under $1M for your film, this may be a whole new (and legal) resource. Official, formal, real INVESTMENT through fundraising. With enough safeguards built in to make it safe and sane for investors.
