Tamar Braxton's latest album Calling All Lovers has yet to top any Billboard charts, but the Christian singer is still choosing to glorify God.

"I'll take whatever you have for ME Jesus! It is good enough for me. ... YOU GOD is good enough for me ... and you make it that I'm GOOD enough for ME," the 38-year-old singer wrote on Instagram. "Cause only YOU know what the end result is!! Thank you so much God and #tamartianfriends I'm just Grateful this album came out (if u only knew).

Braxton's fourth studio album, Calling All Lovers peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 charts, No. 2 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Album charts behind Janet Jackson's Unbreakable album with the same performance for the R&B Album chart. Although she has yet to reach No. 1 with her latest effort, Braxton insists that she is proud of her latest project.

"This album healed me, saved me, gave me hope and strength while making me laugh and cry! Who cares what anyone says or thinks or who bought it, who didn't buy it (don't cheat yourself). Hell, even if u stole it #callingalllovers is my BEST work and I'm PROUD of it no matter what," she wrote. "See you on tour with @therealmaryjblige AND @musicbykem."

Braxton's foundation of faith in God and her work could come from her upbringing in a household with pastor parents.

"Both of my parents at one time were pastors of their own churches and I learned a lot from that," she told Flaunt magazine during an interview back in 2013. "But not until I was an adult did I understand it and know for myself."

It was this faith that helped Braxton further her career in music.

"I had to be really strong in my faith and I know if it wasn't for God, I would not be here," she said during an interview with Ebony magazine.

Braxton's older sister and singer Toni, 48, previously spoke to The Christian Post about how being raised as a singer in a church helps to shape an entertainer's career.

"When your dad is a preacher you're involved in everything. It's how I got my roots because most entertainers come from church, African-Americans singing in the choir," Toni told CP in 2013. "You practice every day, you've got your pulpit, it was your stage. You've got your congregation that was your audience."

She spoke about all of the basics for a professional singer being provided by the church.

"That's the fundamentals for you becoming a professional singer. It was right there, right in the church. That's where I got over that fear of performing," Toni revealed to CP. "That thing, can I do this? Church people will always rally around you even if you sound terrible.

"You'll get an 'Amen' or 'Alright' or 'Sing!' You're going to get something to cheer you along," she elaborated. "Somebody is going to tell you, you can't lead that song that you wanted to lead, but they'll still encourage you to at least see what you've got out there. I love that about church ? that's great."

I still think  "King" can help out the album a bit... An epic video and some shameless promo could definitely push sales for the Thanksgiving and Christmas season.
