I waited so long for my baby girls. <br /><br />God continues to speak to me through music. Words. I write for WMU ... interviewing missionaries ... and I can't tell you how many times the Lord has used a line from a song to speak right to my heart with direction for an article. <br /><br />When our hearts are tender ... these lullabies are tender. <br /><br />Blessed by you.Shelli Littletonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136640834514348086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695097579142041741.post-63753226808055423152012-01-12T13:51:25.387-05:002012-01-12T13:51:25.387-05:00GranJan!

Both play 80's rock, which is...well... less than scriptural to say the least. :) Because several of our evenings are filled with his songs, and because I LOVE WORSHIP MUSIC I play our local contemporary christian radio station and other praise CD's continually with our homeschooled kids. I find often that right when I'm hitting a wall a lyric will lift right out of my radio and pierce my heart again for Christ. Awesome. <br />Sorry so long: one funny... after a day of errands my then 8yr old son entered the kitchen and asked, "is Sunny a Christian yet? I bet he is because that bird (our parakeet) listens to our radio ALL THE TIME."<br />Love you, Siesta!mommysince02https://www.blogger.com/profile/04326372590758504208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695097579142041741.post-72545589004086767852012-01-12T13:28:45.334-05:002012-01-12T13:28:45.334-05:00I cannot imagine life without music.

I play instrumental worship music during prayer time, classical music during my study/writing times, crank-up-the-volume-and-sing-along worship music when I'm driving.

My bff & her hubby adopted a special 5month old boy on 12-20-11. What a CHRISTmas Blessing!!! This couple loves the Lord & loves music too. I know God placed this little boy in their care, to be raised in a home that worships the one true God! I know this will bless them!

And it is the WORD...<br />Music has blessed me so much all my life, whether it's a snippet the Spirit brings to my mind to comfort me or the songs sung outloud at church or other events...WOW, it is a language of the soul. Harmony with God.<br />I love to sing with all the other women at the Beth Moore events. Travis ministers to me so much when I'm there and the music goes silent and all the women sing praise to God.<br />The event I went to in South Dakota was so full of His Spirit as we sang praises to Jesus.<br />Ministry, indeed!<br /><br />Happy and Blessed New Year to you...twinklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03522192646526647165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695097579142041741.post-19769022159038755232012-01-09T20:19:47.436-05:002012-01-09T20:19:47.436-05:00Hey Jan,

Music has become even more important since I have had my seizure & head injury a year ago November. I do not take anything for granted. I love to close my eyes as I am rest from my head and listen to much God loves me and how beautiful heaven is and that some day I will not be in pain when I get there. I love Kathy Troccoli when I feel everything is just getting more than I can bear and I listen to her comfor CD or Just to hear the song Where can I go but to the Lord. My back is permantly messed up, i have had knee surgy (sucess), seizures, right eye problems and constant nerve pain through out my body if I do not stay on my medicines. Numbness in my legs. Through the songs of the church I find comfort uplifing, encouragemen and a reason to go on. One day when I get to Heaven I will be able to have a new body without all these problems and nodiabetes and me and Maybe me and Saint Peter can sit down and have some fried Chicken together. God is so good all the time, all the time God is good. I can't wait to get to Heaven to worship my King of Kings and Lord of Lords and sing the praises I sing here on Earth.Deborah Duncannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695097579142041741.post-19387500651607302352012-01-08T16:29:57.484-05:002012-01-08T16:29:57.484-05:00I love music, especially soft worshipful music, li...I love music, especially soft worshipful music, like this CD. I wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep for hours. I reach over and turn on my CD player, with the sound very low. It is such a comfort and relaxing to me. I love the way Pastor Gary brings<br /> us into the throne room every Sunday morning. We are so blessed to have him.Sara Belflowernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695097579142041741.post-69497646372940508782012-01-08T01:27:13.497-05:002012-01-08T01:27:13.497-05:00Wow where do I begin!

It is amazing how it can send me to the Throne Room to worship, give me great peace, Change the mood of my entire family. Lift me out of the depths of despair and speak to my heart! I have an awesome voice when I am by myself but the Lord lets me have a terrible one around others to keep me humble!

When I first came to Christ, worship through song was so new to me. I found that over years that I can fidget my way through a sermon struggling to pay attention. But the worship team can come up onstage and play a 4 minute song and I connect with God in a way that is so sweet. I love that we have the joy of worshiping in song :)bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04766687202439606185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-695097579142041741.post-48163900972741027382012-01-07T19:58:52.164-05:002012-01-07T19:58:52.164-05:00I LOVE music.

Until then.....well, I'll just sing quietly so as not to bother others.Leah Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10888422138033372220noreply@blogger.com
