Friday Five...

1. Here's a link to a video Mother posted on her blog, Through Grace a Gentle and Quiet Spirit.

2. Isaiah's Story



3. Excerpt from Fireproof (This is Me Time!)


4. The Credit Crisis (very interesting! *there is a part 2*)


5. Smell Like a Monster--Grover does a spoof of the Old Spice guy...


Words to remember: (from Challies Dot Com [of course])
"Many Christians talk about seekers, those who are in the midst of pursuing God. Of course this is a little bit of a misnomer since the Bible makes it clear that no one truly seeks after God. As Romans 3 says, “None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one.” Case closed. Sinful man does not pursue God.

What this means is that no one initiates a pursuit of God—the kind of pursuit that would lead to salvation. Instead, it is God who is the initiator and the pursuer..."

Friday Five...

I'm so sorry I didn't post the last few weekends.
I've decided to share five videos and a scripture today. Hopefully, I'll make it a habit. :D

1. Jackie Evancho on America's Got Talent singing Time to Say Goodbye with Sarah Brightman. I didn't like Jackie's voice at first...until I heard her singing this. I think it's perfect for her vocal range.

(Skip to 1:02 for the performance)



2. Time to Say Goodbye, originally Con te Partiro, was first sung by Andrea Bocelli.
In this next video, he tells of his own pro-life story:



3. from Challies Dot Com
"The Church and Culture - Phillip Jensen asks Mark Dever 'How do you see the culture affecting us negatively?"


4. The Manslater--don't we all wish we had one of these?



5. World Traveler by Andrew Peterson. (Check out the rest of his music on YouTube or MySpace My favorites are Family Man, Dancing in The Minefields, and World Traveler)



Words to Remember:

Isaiah 55:8-13

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

‘For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.

‘For you shall go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress; instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall make a name for the LORD, an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”
