I came across these songs today, while visiting another Christian blog. I don't ordinarily listen to this type of music, but the words to this first song just kind of moved me, and the second one is just plain fun- worshipping and praising the Lord. I am in a "praising the Lord through music" kind of mood today. There is no more to this post. Subscribe in a reader

My Tongue Tastes Like a Foot by Shalene
2007-08-18 21:18:00
My dear brothers and sisters, be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. James 1:19 NLTThis verse is burned into my psyche, I think. The only problem is it's apparently not burned in deep enough. Too often I engage my mouth before I engage my brain. When I do this, I almost always end up saying something hurtful, or at the very least, something I have do to double time to explain. I don't do this on purpose, but it makes no difference to the person on the receiving end.I have gotten much better at being tactful, from years of growing up in a family that didn't know the meaning of the word, but there are still moments when I let down my guard and say the first thing that comes to my mind. It takes a lot of effort to remember that:He who answers a matter before he hears it,It is folly and shame to him. Proverbs 18:13 NKJVLast night, even, I was honored with an award through the Worship and Arts team in my church, but when introducing the award and the reason for...

The Answer to My Prayers by Shalene
2007-08-17 17:49:00
'And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,Your young men shall see visions,Your old men shall dream dreams. And on My menservants and on My maidservantsI will pour out My Spirit in those days;And they shall prophesy. I will show wonders in heaven aboveAnd signs in the earth beneath:Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness,And the moon into blood,Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD. And it shall come to passThat whoever calls on the name of the LORDShall be saved.' Acts 2:17-21 NKJV Yesterday, I spent much of my waking moments in prayer. Pray er for all those that I want to reach for the Lord. I know that I cannot do it alone, but some days I wonder whether I am doing enough. I don't know if all the praying and emotions that went along with them, caused me to get one of my migraines or not, but I went to sleep in the aftern...

Prayers of a Burdened Heart by Shalene
2007-08-16 22:20:00
My heart is burdened today, by the thought of those not being reached. On Freedom in the Spirit, today, I posted a video of the song by Leeland- "Tears of the Saints". Perhaps I'm just emotional today, but I am so saddened by the thought of any being left behind. No, I am beyond saddened. I'm crying out to the Lord, let me lead them home! Use me to reach them, I pray with everything within me. For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ. And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ, being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:8-11 NKJVI guess perhaps today I just feel a sense of urgency. I have so many family members that are not believers, and I ache for them. How much more so, must ou...

Sin and Conviction by Shalene
2007-08-15 19:20:00
Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 NKJVI have been convicted of my sin. One of them anyway. You see I have 4 wonderful children that shape my life everyday. Perhaps, even more than I shape theirs, sometimes. Recently, my eldest daughter, who is 14, asked my husband about something we both do that is a sin. About why we do it, if we know it is a sin. (By the way, that sin is continuing to smoke, though we both know it is something we should not do. We both know that we are dirtying up our "temple," and we have both been led by the Spirit that quitting is something we most certainly should do. And yet we haven't. The other reason that this is a sin is that any addiction will become your Master. The bible teaches us that we are to have one Master in our lives and that is God. This is the other reason it is sinful.)We both know it is bad for us, and we both know to continue is a sin. So why do we do it??? We are b...
