Start of something old? new?

So this weekend was bit of a whirlwind... opening for the Marcels, getting in the paper, having my song selected for a feature spot on ReverbNation, my song now trending on ReverbNation... it is just a lot... I am starting to feel like maybe God is saying I am supposed to sing... but He wants me to sing His word... So much of my career I felt like I was treading water and pushing against something...
