Finally Home

Two thumbs WAY up for the lastest projects from Mercy Me and Casting Crowns....

My favorite....

Finally Home

I’m gonna wrap my arms around my daddy’s neck
And tell him that I’ve missed him.
And tell him all about the man that I became
And hope that it pleased him

There’s so much I want to say
There’s so much I want you to know

Chorus
When I finally make it home
When I finally make it home

Then I’ll gaze upon the throne of the King
Frozen in my steps
And all the questions that I swore I would ask
Words just won’t come yet

So amazed at what I’ve seen
So much more than this old mind can hold

Chorus

Bridge
And the sweetest sound my ears have yet to hear
Voices of the angels

Chorus

where do you stand?

We all know those people. You know, those people who don't believe. Either they refuse to believe in God, or they choose to believe in false gods instead of the one, true God. We all know those people.

I heard a cute little story the other day. A certain friend of my sister is a strong believer. She's the kind of believer we all should be. You know, the kind that stands for her faith no matter who she talks to. The kind that is so convicted for Christ, that she's always prepared for what to say to those who don't. Apparently this lady gets into a lot of discussions with a coworker who believes in many "gods", but not God in Heaven. This coworker finally told her he couldn't believe she believed in a fiery hell that people who don't follow God will go to and spend eternity in. Her response was simply, if I'm wrong and you're right, well, I'll just die and turn back into dust and never know the difference anyway. But if you're wrong, and I'm right, you'll die and spend eternity in that hell. Why is it soooo hard to believe? Even if I wasn't sure what to believe, I'd rather take my chances on Heaven than hell!! Wouldn't you?

An inspiration to me

I've had very little time to post entries in this blog lately. It's been neglected as with MANY areas of my life. Although my life is hectic these days, the last thing I should neglect is my spiritual life and relationship with God. I've blogged about it many times, yet seem to fail at putting my own thoughts into practice. That's the awesome thing about God, however. He knows we are human and will make mistakes, yet He is there to forgive us anyway. He just wants to know we are sorry for our shortcomings.

There is one thing that truly inspires me to remember God through everything this time of year and it comes from an unlikely source. I don't know how many of you observe the large cluster of football players, coaches and personnel who gather after the football games, knees bent in prayer and thanksgiving to God, but I look for it after every game. I don't know these people and I don't know their hearts, but God does and they are truly inspirational to me. Here are masses of young people in the public eye who set examples to their fans. They show, through their acts that no matter what just happened in their game, there is one person they remember. There is one action that they deem important before they leave the field. I don't know about you, but that inspires me. No matter what these people do the rest of the week, they prove that stopping and thanking God is important in their lives. Maybe it's time we start taking a little more time out of our busy lives for God.
