At the moment I am sitting at Nordic Audio Labs studios in Karperö, outside Vasa, here in Finland. The weather is getting cold and we saw the first snow fall a couple of days ago. The biker season is definitely over soon.
Since yesterday I have been working on the new songs here in the studio together with producer and engineer Martin Kantola and with my own long time drummer Sami Ontermaa. It feels good to have these brothers in the Lord beside me and what we are doing right now feels really wonderful.
This is another part of the vision I got the night Jesus came to me at the hospital in Vasa february 2007 and I am thankful that I am able to do what we are doing today. I am thankful for that I am alive and I am thankful for that I still have my family. I am thankful for every day, I am thankful for His love and grace. Without HIM I would be lost forever. Those words are something like what the message is going to be on the title track "Thankful".
Tomorrow thursday I will speak about our helper, The Holy Spirit at the church in Vasa and later at night I am flying to Sundsvall, Sweden to hold five meetings in three days and welcome to new Ambassadors into the motorcycle ministry. I am thankful that GOD is keeping me busy and for every single day I get to walk together with JESUS.
I am telling you right now. The new album and the new single and the new songs are going to ROCK! Even if there are not so many rock songs this time it will be music that I never could have written on my own. To write songs together with GOD like this is something supernatural and amazing.
Stay blessed my friends and remember to love each other!
Pontus
