I don't know why, but this song popped into my head yesterday. I haven't thought of this song in years, and I realized that too many times in the last times this has been my attitude - one of complaining about how life was going or how people were treating or not treating me. It …
I love it when I'm at church and we sing a song that I haven't played in a while. That's what happened to me on Sunday with "Trusting Jesus". The words really hit me in a fresh way. It seems like the older you get, the more you realize how much you need to trust …
This is such a good song for me. I tend to me a big worrier. I know I shouldn't, but I do. I'm trying to pray more and worry less, but I'm not always successful. Every verse tells us another woe or trouble we should hand over to the Lord. Verse One - Depression Verse …
Yesterday our church had the privilege of helping with the official start of a new Baptist church. It was so exciting to be a part of this. The new pastor and his family have been members of our church for several months, and while we will miss them we are also excited for this new …
This song has been in my head and heart for the last couple of days. It's not a well-known hymn. I discovered it while playing the piano one day - just playing whatever hymns caught my fancy. I love the comfort of this song reminding me that I have a Friend Who loved me before …

I'm going to do something just a little different today. Instead of giving you a hymn, I'm going to give you a couple of samples to whet your appetite to buy some CDs. These CDs are put out by very dear friends of our family - the Jackson family. They are on deputation to come …
This song, I think, represents the heart cry of every true Christian because it's only as we are close to the Lord that life has meaning. I have sung this song as a prayer in my private devotion time. I love the progression in the verses. The first verse just speaks of the longing to …
So many times people think that being a Christian means you go around all day with a serious look on your face thinking spiritual thoughts and performing sanctimonious acts. You never have fun. Life is dull. Nothing could be further from the truth! Life is worth living when you are saved. There is joy - …
This song should be the prayer of every Christian - to have God's Holy Spirit at work in our life teaching us... to love what God loves to have strength to serve God with a pure heart to have a heart that burns for God alone to remember that we will be living a perfect life …
