I know I shared this song earlier this year, but I heard this stripped down version today and felt I needed to share it. I'm reminded that this time of year for some isn't full of cheer or joy. It's hard. As one who has loved ones who have fought depression through their lifetime andContinue reading “Everglow – redux”

Just realized I've never shared Trans-Siberian Orchestra… my bad. Tonight's devotional is on preparing our hearts for Christ. But it's not on us to struggle and strive to prepare. He's the one preparing our hearts.      God owns and controls all things. And there is nothing thathe could give you for Christmas this year that wouldContinue reading “Christmas Canon”

The Advent Season has begun and, once again, I hope to share excerpts from one of Desiring God's Advent Devotionals, "The Dawning of Indestructible Joy." It seems a somewhat fitting choice to help me fight for Joy this season. I hope and pray it is useful to you. Dec 1, 2016 The coming of Jesus wasContinue reading “He Who Is Mighty”

I shared a song from Sleeping At Last a couple of days ago. I'd found it on the "A Very RELEVANT Christmas, Vol. 6" album that I'd downloaded last week. Tonight I thought I'd look to see what else the band had been up to and found this song. Thought it appropriate because I'm focusingContinue reading “Joy”

OK GO did it again… So maybe it's not holiday fare, but it's really cool and you gotta see it! You're welcome. #walkherwalk    

I've shared Sleeping At Last's songs quite a few times over the last couple of years. Their songs strike a resonant chord in my heart. This one is no different. It resonates even more as family has moved away and life and traditions have changed. Not saying it's wrong or bad… It's just different… and needsContinue reading “Snow”

Another song from the album I downloaded from Relevant Magazine… It's an original adaptation of a 1906 Christmas hymn. I love the first verse… The maker of the sun and moonThe maker of our earthHas made an even greater moveHimself is brought to birth Fighting for Joy this season!  

'Tis the Season! Kinda got away from posting songs earlier this year. Not sure why, other than I was weary… Work, theater, politics…they all combined, along with residual effects of losing my father last year, to create a somewhat lingering melancholy. And now it's the Holiday Season! Oh, how the depression wants to set in…Continue reading “Unwed Mother”

  I've shared River Whyless before. They just released their latest album, We All the Light. I found this video fascinating enough that I felt it ought to be shared.    

1 John 4:7-21: Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only SonContinue reading “#WHERESTHELOVE”
