The Blogosphere and Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson has died. He was reportedly afraid of death. My quick and humble thoughts? He was a gifted and talent human being, created in the image of God, yet one who tried to alter that image by running away from his race and age through the pursuit of wanting to be ‘Peter Pan’; living in a fantasy world. A fantasy world that he created. He was a gifted musician, an incredible entertainer and the world will be a better and place because of his musical legacy. As to his eternal state? May God have mercy on his soul.

May we be ready for the place of eternity’s doorstep when we find ourselves in the same stage of life as Michael.

With so much being said about Michael Jackson and his legacy in this life I thought I’d take the opportunity to compile some of the stories and blogs that other people have written. Most of these stories have links that have links that have….oh, never mind.
