Sunday Worship

 This is video of part of a worship service at one of my Bible Study evenings a couple of years ago.

Love In Christ,

Sunday Worship and Musings

Those ancient words, written down by God-inspired men, are STILL true today. There is 'hope for the hopeless, rest for the weary, love for the broken hearted'. If you are in despair, crying, with no hope in your heart, there IS an answer. His name is Jesus. Come to Him as a little child would come, simply and humbly.

This song IS my heart's desire. I know I fail all too often, but I'm grateful for my Jesus giving me His grace yet again.

"One day the Father of Glory reached down with His righteous right Hand/ He saved me and gave me a story and I can't help but tell it again/ I've been touched by the strong Hand of love /I've been saved by the Father above// I'm in the embrace of amazing grace/ I've been touched by the strong hand of love" - C. Kinsey
This song was given to a young man at my church some years ago, and we still sing it today.

Lord bless your Sunday,
Leah

Roy & Dale

I'm working on a Roy & Dale post that I hope will give everyone a glimpse of this extraordinary couple's lives. They were huge proponents of adoption, no strangers to sorrow and Christians in the best sense of the word.

Sunday Sings

                                               gorgeous song - 600+ voices a capella.

                                                                      Truth...

Musical Musings

It's incredible how much your memories can be triggered by music.

For me, just a few of the songs that trigger memories are.....

"Redeemed" by Big Daddy Weave will always bring a certain conversation strolling along a wooded path with my dear friend Nat to mind.



"I'm A Seed" by the David Crowder Band takes me back to Wednesday evenings in midsummer 2012 riding to church in the backseat of my brother's car; wind whipping through the open windows.

"Your Love, O Lord" by Third Day instantly brings a nippy late September sunset spent with fellow believers on the shore of Lake Michigan. We sang our hearts out under the bracingly blue evening sky. There is something very profound about looking up into a wide open, clear heaven as you sing the lyric, "Your faithfulness stretches to the skies" or looking at the waves lapping the shore as you sing, "Your justice flows like the ocean's tide". A year and a half later, I still go back to that wonderful night whenever I hear the song play.

"Open Skies" by The David Crowder band brings the memories of my week as a volunteer waitress at a Mennonite summer camp called Black Rock Retreat back to mind. God taught me a lot in that brief 5 day period.

What are your musical memories? 

Philemon: 25,

Sunday Thankfuls and Worship

I'm thankful that God is providing for me, despite paying more taxes this year.
I'm thankful for verses of Scripture like this one... "I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord." - Psalm 122:1
I'm thankful for the privilege of meeting with my fellow Christians openly & freely.

Oh we need the fresh outpour so much!

Got this stuck in my head over the past few days....
