I've blogged about the Divine directive, "Be still (and know that I am God.)" I've also shared another lovely song based on that Psalm . But this new song by Hope Darst is just a beautiful reminder that the stillness in knowing who God is will quite naturally, (spiritually?), lead us to be brave, to … Continue reading Peace Be Still
It’s all about trust
It's been a while since I shared a song. I can't sit still for this one! The shoulders start to move to the beat, then the hips, then the feet and arms! It's a fun and inspiring song about trusting God - in everything!! So, give the tune a listen. And take the words into … Continue reading It’s all about trust
“the good shepherd”
I don't normally do this on my blog, but I want to share something I read on a friend's FaceBook page recently. I don't know where she found it; there was no reference for it, I'm sorry to say. But, it filled me with hope even as it filled my eyes with tears. Italy is … Continue reading “the good shepherd”
The miles still matter…
I heard this song this morning. Every Mile Mattered, Nicole Nordeman tells us. And I know it's true. It all makes us who we are. Learn from mistakes, ask forgiveness for them. And please believe that God has forgiven you when you truly ask Him to when you truly are sorry. And then move forward, … Continue reading The miles still matter…

What I’ve Learned So Far
As many of you know, if you've been reading my blog, I have gone back to school, to finish my grad degree in Theological Studies. Well, I have a take home (closed book on the honor system!) midterm exam for my History of the Old Testament course. I have not had a lot of time … Continue reading What I’ve Learned So Far
Why God?
If you've been following me for more than a couple of weeks you know I love my contemporary Christian songs. Here's the latest. It's called Why God by Austin French. Watch the video. It's very moving. Love the song, of course. I actually like his little monologue prior to the music video the best. When … Continue reading Why God?
The Reason for the World
I just heard a song yesterday for the first time. It's by one of my favorite Christian singer/songwriters, Matthew West. The lyrics are below. Appropriate that I should hear the song on 9/11, the anniversary of the terrorist attack that changed the world. In many ways, it was changed for the worse. But there is … Continue reading The Reason for the World
Creed
In the mid-1990's Christian singer/songwriter Rich Mullins released this song based on the Apostle's Creed. It's a beautiful song and I am including the link to the YouTube video here. What do you believe? Can you defend that belief, if you have to? Can you share that belief as Christ wants us to do, so, … Continue reading Creed
“…to give you a future of hope”
https://www.militarytimes.com/news/2019/06/26/two-us-troops-killed-in-afghanistan/#.XRTg3wohaF1.email When ever Troops are killed in action (combat zones), I usually curse upon learning of the losses. It's not very pretty or classy, I suppose, but it's my honest reaction. I used to do that when Sean would notify me of deaths in our unit when he was a Brigade Commander, too. That visceral … Continue reading “…to give you a future of hope”
