Q: 20% of people will be watching the big game on Sunday for THIS reason. What?

A: It's not that they love football...it's a good excuse to spend time with friends and family. :-) I always end up gabbing with everyone and then not watching the game! Congrats to Nancy, who nabbed a pair of tix to see Chris Tomlin on February 28th at Gibson Amphitheatre.

Pray for baby Sophie!


Bart Millard's (he's MercyMe's lead singer) baby girl Sophie has been having some life-threatening health problems. Please keep Sophie and the whole family in your prayers! It looks like she is recovering...this is from Bart's latest blog at http://www.mercyme.org/:

What a difference a day makes! This morning it was truly touch and go with Sophie’s breathing, and tonight they are already considering putting her into a normal room because she has made a complete turn around. Praise God!


Apparently being large has its perks! Fortunately, Sophie gets her girth from her mother, rather than having a girlish figure like her dad…(not sure why Shannon is laughing hysterically as I type this.) Anyway, they said that due to Sophie being bigger and stronger for her age, she was able to put up with junk where most whimpier babies would throw in the towel. So hear this all whimpy babies of the world! Sophie’s coming for you…wait sorry…that makes no sense. Anywho Sophie is doing much, much, much better and, Lord willing, we could possibly be home by the end of the week.
I cannot possibly express how greatful we are for the bazillion prayers that went up on Sophie’s behalf. We were in tears most of the day reading everyone’s comments. Thank you, thank you thank you. God is good!


Please continue to pray for her safe recovery


Amazed by Him,


Bart

Slow Fade/Casting Crowns


(from http://www.castingcrowns.com/) This song was inspired by the spreading cancer of moral failure in the fathers of this generation. As believers, we must guard our hearts and understand the no one crashes and burns. They just slowly fade away one little compromise at a time.

~Psalm 1 / 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 / James 4:7-10 / Proverbs 4:23-27 / 1 John 2:15-17 / James 1:12-15 / Isaiah 59:2 / Matthew 13:16-23 / 1 John 2:3-6, 15-17 / Romans 12:1-3 / 1 Corinthians 15:57-58

Be careful little eyes what you see

It’s the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings


Be careful little feet where you go


For it’s the little feet behind you that are sure to follow



It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away


It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray


Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid


When you give yourself away


People never crumble in a dayIt’s a slow fade, it’s a slow fade



Be careful little ears what you hear


When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near


Be careful little lips what you say


For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray



It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away


It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray


Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid


When you give yourself away


People never crumble in a day



The journey from your mind to your hands


Is shorter than you’re thinking


Be careful if you think you stand


You just might be sinking



It’s a slow fade when you give yourself away


It’s a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray


Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid


When you give yourself away


People never crumble in a day


Daddies never crumble in a day


Families never crumble in a day



Oh be careful little eyes what see


Oh be careful little eyes what you see


For the Father up above is looking down in love


Oh be careful little eyes what you see

Lyrics to Finally Home

This is such a beautiful song from MercyMe!

I’m gonna wrap my arms around my daddy’s neck
And tell him that i’ve missed him
And tell him all about the man that i became
And hope that it pleased him
There’s so much i want to say
There’s so much I want you to know

When I finally make it home
When I finally make it home

Then i’ll gaze upon the throne of the king
Frozen in my steps
And all the questions that i swore i would ask
Words just won’t come yet
So amazed at what i’ve seen
So much more than this old mind can hold

Chorus

And the sweetest sound my ears have yet to hear
Voices of the angels

Chorus

Smitty and the Jonai

Last Sunday night, Michael W. Smith joined the Jonas Brothers in a sold-out show at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Michael W. Smith and the Jonas Brothers performed Smitty’s 1991 hit "Place in This World." Later that evening Michael performed another song with Steven Curtis Chapman, Phil Vassar, Vince Gill and the Jonas Brothers. “A lot of the people we’ll bring up tonight are idols of ours,” Nick Jonas told the crowd. Other performers included: Jordin Sparks, Martina McBride, Brad Paisley and Amy Grant with Tim McGraw and Faith Hill introducing the trio. “They’re talented—this is more than just a boy band,” said Michael W. Smith of the Jonas Brothers. (source: Jesusfreakhideout.com)
