Have you ever noticed that there is a song for just about every mood? Maybe I'm just different, but I could pick about a half-dozen songs for almost every possible mood. I really like music; I sing with most of my siblings, and we have a lot of music.
I've been wanting to do this for a long time, make alist of a few different songs I like and why. So here goes:
- Feelin' Alright, Yeah I'm Doin' Okay
- This one gets its milage. If you like this song, you can't beat it- if you dislike it, well...
- Forgive Me
- Ooh. This one came on once when the player was set to random (shuffle). At the moment it started, I was
mad furious at one of my brothers. You just can't be mad with that playing. I learned my lesson, and yes, I forgave him...
- Glorious Impossible
- This is the best praise song I have ever heard. Hallelujah!
- I'm Not Gonna Worry
- Everyone needs this one on once in a while.
- Nobody Knows, Nobody Cares
- I can't be the only one who has these moods, right? I actually did put this on once, but about the time it got to the part, "'cept Jesus walking by my side..." I got sheepish and put on Life is Great and Gettin' Better instead.
- Why Me
- This one I sat down to listen to- I wanted to hear a good answer. It starts out "Why me? What have I ever done to deserve even one..." and then comes the shocker I wasn't expecting: "...of the pleasures I've known?"
This last song caught me completely off guard. Pleasures? Wait minute! That's not what I was asking!
The chorus goes:
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so help me Jesus, I know what I am.
Now that I know that I've needed you so help me Jesus- My soul's in your hands
This is a song that I, for one, really need as a reminder. When I want to ask why, this song always comes to mind, and my thoughts turn back to worship. Why me? The love of God- why me? By the time this song ran through, I would have been disappointed if it had turned out differently. It now is one of my favorites.
I can't think of anything I want to add to that. Good stopping point! Forget the rest of the list- maybe some other day! Fare thee well. |

I am praying things won't get too bad with Obama as president. =/ But if things do get too bad we could always start a new colony in New Zealand. ;)
I don't know if I've asked you this yet. But have you ever been Contra dancing? It's the best thing ever!
God bless. And keep praying!
Oh, and read Psalm 37.
