It's a two for one!

I was not able to get on my "BLOG" and blog yesterday. So, today I will submit TWO praise items! First, I want to say, where did the word BLOG come from? Someone enlighten me please. I'm sure it stands for something, right? I want to go on record saying I don't like the word. I think it sounds to much like BLAH and that's not good. So, I will be trying to come up with something different to call it just because that's what I do! OK, now for the praise items. I want to praise God for his word and for empowering people to write bible studies and devotions that help me to grow in my everyday walk with Him. I praise you Lord for revealing secrets to my heart as only you know what I can handle! I use a great book now for my quiet time that was given to me by my dear friend, Beverly! (Thanks Beverly!) It is called God's Purpose for Every Woman (Proverbs 31) I have gained so much knowledge and insight from this book. Thank you Lord!





Second, I want to thank the Lord for providing me with another way to help me stay close and clean and that is through music. I love to listen to music all day long and I have a lot of it. I love all types of Christian music and have recently gotten hooked on Bluegrass! Goin' back to my roots! I have been listening to a couple of Cd's a lot lately that are just great and really speak to my heart! They are Integrity's Worship 24:7 and Amazing Grace - Timeless Hymns of Faith






I want you to know that I do have mini worship service everyday in my car and in my cube. I have even rearranged one of the songs to fit! One of my favorite songs is "In the Sanctuary". The lyrics say "We lift our hands in the Sanctuary. We lift our hands to give you the glory! We lift our hands to give You the praise. And we will praise You for the rest of our days. Yes we will!
I have modified this song to say We lift our hands in the KIA SPECTRA! Yep, that's my car! It fits just perfect with the rhythm of the song. He probably thinks I'm crazy!
I do love the Lord and I love praising Him all the time because He saved my life! I love you Lord! Blessings!
