I posting this song as part of Sings, Miracles and Wonders Then Sings My Soul Saturdays. This is Travis Cottrell’s 2000 Years. It has always been a favorite of mine. I am using this particular video because I was at this event, so it has double-meaning for me. Enjoy.
I’ve missed the last couple of weeks of Then Sings My Soul Saturdays hosted by Signs Miracles and Wonders. And I’ve really missed it! I always enjoy checking out everyone’s posts on the links list and hearing new songs, old songs, familiar songs, new artists – so amazing!
This is one I was introduced to around Resurrection Sunday. This song just brings me to tears. I cannot get enough of it. The words cut straight to my heart each time I hear it. Here you go, What Do I Know of Holy by Addison Road…
We are playing this song in our worship set tomorrow morning – I just absolutely love it and how it intertwines the old with the new, among other reasons. In this week leading up to Resurrection Sunday, join me in reflecting upon the wondrous cross and all that it means…
It is raining buckets here! Lots of thunderstorms and rain lately and more rain to come…
Makes it kind of difficult to take a certain little doggy outside to go potty. He keeps trying to hide under my legs!
I am attempting to make bread as I type this…first round of rising happening now. We shall see how it turns out. I am so thankful for my KitchenAid mixer and its dough hook. That kneading part just looks like work! And we all know I am opposed to that. Just kidding. *sheepish look*
I just read The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch (with Jeffrey Zaslow) and it was actually quite good (and a very fast read). I had seen the video of his lecture online so I was not sure if this was just a repeat, but it was certainly much more than that. What a fantastic legacy for his children and certainly inspirational to read about a man who achieved many dreams of his own and inspired others to do so. There were no lack of tears on my part, of course, knowing that he had already passed away and that the topic was not easy to begin with – his impending death from pancreatic cancer. It was good nonetheless. I do recommend it! Thanks, Leslie, for letting me borrow it!
Cody is doing well and has a particular fascination with hiding under our furniture. It’s hilarious to see his little nose peek out from under the chair or the bed. Not so hilarious when he gets stuck under the couch. I haven’t been fast enough yet to capture a picture of that though.
Way cool – I’m on to the second part of this breadmaking thing. So far so good! It’s rising again… (Sounds spooky, doesn’t it?)
So for a few years now I have been thinking I’ve been allergic to fruit – eating the few fruits I did like caused my mouth, throat and the insides of my ears to itch like crazy! Lately, though, I’ve bought organic fruit and I dared to try a few bites. There was no reaction? Hopeful thinking? My allergy medicine working? Or am I allergic to pesticides and what-not that are on non-organic fruits? Food for thought…(such a great pun, I’m so funny!)…more experimentation to come…
And my dad sent me this video…I thought it was very cool…
This is one of my absolute most favorite pieces to play on the piano. It is a piece that takes me out of the moment and into another, my fingers fitting comfortably onto familiar keys. I have played this piece since I was in junior high but it never ever gets old. Ever. Lately, however, I am transported to the Garden of Gethsemane every time I play it. I have an image of Jesus on His knees praying to His Father in Heaven to take this cup from him, the tears of blood dripping…ever dripping…join me there…
