God Allowed Prostatechtomy Diagramed by Gateway Pregnancy

Speaking About Gaps by Gateway Pregnancy

Thank you for praying for my upcoming prostate cancer surgery on Monday August 12th at 1:00pm at St. Barnabas Hospital, Livingston. I should return home the next day.

'Blessed be Your name, On the road marked with suffering , Though there's pain in the offering, Blessed be Your name'

In the past few months I’ve found this verse to be of great comfort: Psalm 56:3-4 ‘When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I shall not be afraid.’

Would you keep my good friend Rich Collier in your prayers? Follow his prayer needs at: http://prayforrichcollier.blogspot.com/

Since my operation is called a Robotic Assisted Prostatechtomy, it seemed appropriate to bring to your attention some cool Christian rap music.

I think Christian robotic rap music can also be helpful for those dealing with the challenges of peer (the worlds) pressure, whether youth or adults

Trip Lee* is a 26 year old seminary student and accomplished Christian rapper. Check out his song Robot (speakers on please!)

"Robot" by Trip Lee

I am not your robot, I am not a clone
You are not my puppeteer and I am not a drone
Got a new master and I follow Him alone
I want a good life till I'm gone

[Verse 1:]
Hey I was born less than human
I know it sounds crazy
But I was really born a robot as a baby
No real life in me, I just played my role
No self control, I just did what I was told
I got my first order, I was just a day old
But I didn't have a chance, cause my heart was way cold
My heart took the order, I couldn't break the mold
Sold under bondage and I couldn't take control
So I was just chilling in my robot clothes
With my robot friends, and my robot flows
Living robot ways, cause that's all I know
Till I heard I could be freed from my robot soul, I'm like...

[Hook:]
Why you always trying to control me?
You are not my boss that's the old me
Obviously you don't know my style
'Cause I'm not a, I'm not a robot now
I'm not a, I'm not a, I'm not a Robot
I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now [x2]

[Verse 2:]
The crazy thing is I ain't know I was robot
So I ain't have a whole lot of plans for me to rollout
I thought I was unique, I thought I was so hot
But I was just like them other drones, I was so locked
Brainwashed, I was listening to lies
The freedom that I thought I had was really a mirage
I made my own choices, but it was a disguise
The only thing I really did was pick a different lie
So I was still a drone, nothing but a clone
I only knew the lies cause that's all that I was shown
But I been remade, my heart is no longer stone
Where my X-Robots who can sing this song?
Now I've been remade, I'm no longer hollow
A real man came, changed everything that I know
He gave me truth, that's a hard pill to swallow
He gave me new commands, and he freed me up to follow

[Hook]

[Bridge:]
I am not your robot, I am not a clone
You are not my puppeteer and I am not a drone
Got a new master and I follow Him alone
I want a good life till I'm gone

[Verse 3:]
Hey world, you know I see your game
And I don't need your lies, I ain't worried bout a thing
Hey devil, I know you want me chained
But you have been defeated, and your power has been drained
Hey flesh, I know you bear my name
I know you love the lies, but I'm steady tryna change
You mighta been confused, but this a new day
I'm saved now, I ain't gotta do what you say!
To my friends, who are still on lockdown
Still controlled by their passions, stop now
He can free everybody from the top down
If you're freed up, say this with me right now

I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now
I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now
I'm not a, I'm not a, I am not a Robot
I'm not a, I'm not a Robot now

For those of you you appreciate country gospel (having nothing to do with robots) hear this:
