There are some songs that speak deep into my heart, that stir my soul, that elicit emotions to come bubbling up. I was driving home one night recently when I heard the song “Garden” by my new favorite band, NEEDTOBREATHE and as I listened the first time through tears were streaming down my face. The second time through, more tears. The third time through, I was flat out crying. The fourth, fifth, sixth and ninth times I heard it, I was worshipping a loving God and his sacrificial son. I’ve listened to it a number of times since then and it still feels fresh, still tugs on my heart and speaks deeply into my soul. var gaJsHost = ((“https:” == document.location.protocol) ? “https://ssl.” : “http://www.”); document.write(unescape(“%3Cscript src='” + gaJsHost + “google-analytics.com/ga.js’ type=’text/javascript’%3E%3C/script%3E”)); try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(“UA-12356560-1”); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {}
You know you are in trouble when you are up with your mind spinning at an hour you expected to be long asleep while looking at the clock knowing you need to be up in less than 5 hours.
Yvar gaJsHost = ((“https:” == document.location.protocol) ? “https://ssl.” : “http://www.”); document.write(unescape(“%3Cscript src='” + gaJsHost + “google-analytics.com/ga.js’ type=’text/javascript’%3E%3C/script%3E”)); try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(“UA-12356560-1”); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {} Maybe I’ll be able to address all that is on my mind at some point but not now. For now, I have something that will probably bore some readers, repulse others and make some just click on over to the next place you want to go. Hey, I don’t care ’cause it’s my blog, right?! 🙂

OK, I love a lot of different types of music. I’m a loud and fast guy most of the time but I enjoy classical from time to time, blues more often, jazz on occasion, Robert Earl Keen/Lyle Lovett/Jimmy Buffett/Willie any time, Christian rock and pop most of the time these days, some country and yes, hip-hop. I grew up playing basketball with some folks who listened to R&B/soul/rap and it’s long been a part of my music repertoire. Now, I’ve given the appreciation of it to my youngest child. Uh oh! Anyway, I’ve listened to several hip-hop artists popular today and like the music but don’t care for the message…until my boy turned me on to Lecrae. So, I’ve shared some of my favorite Third Day songs, some good Skillet music and now…crank up the subwoofers…here’s Lecrae, Flame and John Reilly singing Joyful Noise.
