Let Your Living Water Flow - Sunday Song on Monday
This video was recorded in All Saints Church for a Pentecost Service in Birmingham, UK February 8, 2008 and was broadcast at that time as well. Be blessed as you listen to the music and the words expressed in this song. I sing it for myself as a prayer.
I left town early last Thursday morning and decided to leave my laptop at home, not to return until late last night Sunday evening. Later I will blog about my experience in Washington, DC at the Lincoln Memorial.
This is a Song I must Sing.

Guy Penrod - He (God) is Watch'n Me
I love the fact that God is the same yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever more. Yes, He has enough time to watch each one of His creations. He is God and created man for fellowship with Him.
In the song the group sings, "...God stops what He is doing when I SPEAK His Name"... Yes, my life and yours is all about relationship. The most important relationship on this earth is my relationship with my Heavenly Father. Next is my relationship with my family. Be blessed as you listen to a Song I must Sing this Sunday's Song.

Opera Company of Philadelphia "Flash Brindisi" at Reading Terminal Marke...
What a rare treat for those individuals in attendance during this "in the market" performance. Though I don't know Italian or even understand what they were singing I understand the beauty of the human voice as the Opera blended with one another. How beautiful. Enjoy!

August 15th - Scripture Meditation/Memory - Psalm 40:1a
Psalm 40:1a (KJV)
I waited patiently for the LORD.
Waiting is much more difficult than walking, for waiting requires patience, and patience is a rare virtue. We enjoy knowing that God builds hedges around His people, when we look at the hedge from the aspect of protection. But when we see it growing higher and higher until we can no longer see over it, we wonder if we will ever get out of our little sphere of influence and service, where we feel trapped. Sometimes it is hard for us to understand why we do not have a larger area of service and it all becomes difficult for us to "brighten the corner" where we are. But God has a purpose in all of His delays. Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD."
Next to this verse, in the margin of his bible, George Mueller made this note: "And the stops too." It is a sad mistake for someone to break through God's hedges. It is a vital principle of the Lord's guidance for a Christian never to move from the spot where he is sure God has placed him, until the "pillar of cloud" (Exodus 31:21) moves. from Sunday School Times.
Once we learn to wait for the Lord's leading in everything, we will know the strength that finds its highest point in an even and steady walk. Many of us are lacking the strength we so desire, but God gives complete power for every task He calls us to perform. Waiting-keeping yourself faithful to His leading-this is the secret of strength. And anything that does not align with obedience to him is a waste of time and energy. Watch and wait for His leading. Samuel Dickey Gordon
Must life be considered a failure for someone compelled to stand still, forced into inaction and required to watch the great, roaring tides of life from shore? No-victory is then to be won by standing still and quietly waiting. Yet this is a thousand times harder to do than in the past, when you rushed headlong into the busyness of life. It requires much more courage to stand and wait and still not lose heart or lose hope, to submit to the will of God, to give up opportunities for work and leave honors to others, and to be quiet, confident, and rejoicing while the busy multitude goes happily along their way.
The greatest life is: "after you have done everything, to stand" (Ephesians 6:13) J. R. Miller

Wendi Marvanne lived an Amazing Life...I am blessed by Her Story
After the last post I viewed this and realized what an amazing mother young Rhema was blessed to have. Wendi, Rhema's mother was indeed a songwriter through this video lived an amazing though short life. She died of Ovarian Cancer. She ends this video telling her daughter. At sometime all people will fail and disappoint you. However, God is always Faithful. BELIEVE GOD.
Amazing Grace Today - God is Always Faithful
I don't know the validity of everything from the credit's but I do know the Power of God can be used in the life of a 7 year old snaggled tooth young child who sings this song. The credits say this video is in memory of her mother how sad to loose your Mother at such a young age. Yet God is Sovereign and definitely in control. I am so thankful for His Love and Mercy on Me today. I was blessed as I was reminded of God's Grace in my life as listened to her sing one of my most favorite hymns.

August 1 - Scripture Meditation/Memory
Mark 1:35 (NIV)
Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.
Each day God has called me to arise early and spend time alone with HIM. I confess what is written in this next verse as is written in Matthew 26:36 Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak applies to me. Today and until Aug 15th I will focus on Mark 1:35.
I look for your comment or scripture memory in the comment section.
This is a Song I Must Sing.

Hymn"Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" Welsh Church
AS I viewed this video I love the music and the words and yet it was sad as I looked for younger people to be part of this amazing chior. Yes, I found a few near the end. As I live my life may my peers include ALL ages especially when it comes to worship. Yes, I know many young people love the contemporary music and I do too but let us live with a balance. The hymns of my childhood have now become prayers in my adulthood.
More times than I can count when I am puzzled about a situation this song will come to mind "Guide me O Thou Great Jehovah, (I am a ) Pilgrim through this barren land, I am weak but thou are mighty, Guide me with thou powerful hand. Bread of Heaven, Bread of Heaven, Feed me til I want no more. Feed me til I want no more. As I pray that and meditate on God's Word I receive direction with the Peace and God's Grace I am seeking. Be Blessed as You Worship the LORD Today.
This is a Song I must Sing.
