We are a singing people. And there is a reason for this. The reality of God and Christ and creation and salvation and heaven and hell are simply too great for mere speaking; they must also be sung. This means that the reality of God and His work is so great that we are not merely to think truly about it, but also feel duly about it. Think truly and feel duly – that is, feel with the kind and depth and intensity of emotion that is appropriate to the reality that is truly known.

I've kind of been a lurker lately. (We are in the process of selling our farm and moving to Georgia) But, thought I would share a couple of verses that help keep me in line and also one of praise!

--Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
James 1:19-20

If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless.
James 1:26

I will praise you, O Lord, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonders.
I will be glad and rejoice in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High!
Psalm 9

I just praise the Lord! He is so kind and forgiving.
He is our protector.

Blessings,
Patricia

For the grace of God... teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions.
--Titus 2:11-12
