history made today

There are two things that hit me today as I watch the Inauguration and they are true regardless of who you (or I) voted for.

1) History has been made. This was something I did not think I would see in my lifetime. I cannot help but be amazed at the progress our nation has made in less than 60 years!

2) Obama is the man that God has chosen to be our president for this season. To deny this fact is to deny the sovereignty of God. We do not know how God intends to use this but we do know that He ordained it. We may or may not have voted for Obama but now it is our duty to pray for him.

Free Mp3's

This week's song of the week has a twist. Instead of posting a video of one song I love, I am posting a link to the newest CD from Sovereign Grace Ministries. If you follow the link to their site you can download 3 free songs! YAY!! They are already on my iPod, hope you all enjoy.

Bad days

I have a love/hate relationship with bad days. I hate having bad days, I hate feeling low or frustrated or angry [insert your emotion here] but then at the same time I love the fact that bad days draw me to the Bible and bring me to my knees in prayer. It's a paradox. Today was a bad day but I am planning to read my Bible and pray like I do most everyday (with God's help) and I know that He will grant me the grace to overcome this day.

What an awesome God we serve!

"Cast all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you."

The Power of the Cross


This couple along with fellow writer, Stuart Townsend, are often described as "modern-day hymn writers." We sing these songs often at my church and they are among my favorites so this week's song is a 2 for 1, enjoy!

Non-participators is a synonym for blog stalkers!

The reason I asked about location in my last post is because my Feedjit (see white box on the right) tells me that I have readers in places like Grimesland, NC; Arlington, TX; and Rockville, MD. So, I am curious as to who these people are. Come out of hiding and let me know.

Also, a special thanks to my cousin, Cat, for proving that sarcasm/wittiness is genetic in some families! Love you!

Hey you!

Make yourself known. To assuage my curiosity, let me know you're out there!

Do you read my blog regularly? Do you like it? Is there something you want to see more or less or new?

Don't be afraid to comment! Let's start with name, location and relationship to me (if any). Then if you're really brave you can answer the questions above!
