					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello World, <img loading="lazy" class="alignright" src="http://31.media.tumblr.com/dd2eeb09ecb7cf1455b1ee61dfaec28f/tumblr_mycbyvhGUP1sbnhkqo1_400.gif" alt="" width="400" height="225" /></p>
<p>Right now I&#8217;m working on the revision of my first novel which I&#8217;m attempting to complete by October so pray for me please&#8230;But I did want to post a quick entry on the blog today&#8230;</p>
<p>Recently, megastar Beyonce&#8217; was named <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/dorothypomerantz/2014/06/30/beyonce-knowles-tops-the-forbes-celebrity-100-list/">number 1 on the Forbes Celebrity 100 List because </a>&#8220;Queen B played 95 shows, bringing in an average $2.4 million per stop, according to <a href="http://www.pollstar.com/">Pollstar</a>. She also dropped her most innovative album. Titled simply <em>Beyoncé</em>, the album hit iTunes with barely any publicity and was billed as a “visual album” because there was already a music video for each of the 14 songs.  The single “Drunk in Love” has gone platinum, selling more than 1 million copies.&#8221;</p>
<p>But King S, as in King Solomon in the Bible, proclaimed that &#8220;there is <em>nothing new</em> under the sun.&#8221; And he has the words to back it up&#8230;Check out Proverbs 5:15-20 ERV.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/bible-verses.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="size-medium wp-image-7780 aligncenter" src="https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/bible-verses-300x300.jpg" alt="bible verses" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/bible-verses-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/bible-verses-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/bible-verses.jpg 640w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a>In verse 19, Solomon uses the term &#8220;drunk on her love.&#8221; Hmmm&#8230;Maybe Bey browsed through the Bible for inspiration for her song &#8220;Drunk in Love&#8221; which is about the intoxicating love between her and husband&#8230;But I ain&#8217;t mad&#8230;The definition of inspiration is &#8220;a divine influence or action on a person believed to qualify him or her to receive and communicate sacred revelation&#8221; according to the Merriam Webster dictionary. Nothing is more inspired than the Bible&#8230;</p>
<p>And I&#8217;m hoping AND praying that I continue to be inspired as write this novel&#8230;I see you Bey <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.1.0/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<p>Any thoughts?</p>
<p>P.S. Thanks for a FB friend for inspiring this post <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.1.0/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
