Tuesday night after we had eaten dinner i was having a problem. since Marion's surgery i have been trying to help her as much as i can. i had just started doing the dishes a task that makes me very angry. Marion had turned the tv off so i turned on our cd player which holds 60 cd's and it's set on random. I was trying to do all this housework just getting madder. i walked past Marion and she was standing in the living room singing, praising God with tears running down her face and her hands raised singing "Oh won't you let me love you more" by Misty Edwards. i took the garbage out stood holding on to the garbage can and prayed. "Lord please calm me, my wife is in there worshipping you and i'm getting mad. help me remember you are eternal and dishes are temporary." i walked back inside and just sat down listening to music and joined my wife in praising God. Philippians 4:8 says "And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right , and pure, and lovely. Think about these things that are excellent and worthy of praise." Adjust your focus back on God trust me the view is better. this is the song Marion was pouring out to God http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5T_JaKSq27A Let me Love you More by Misty Edwards
when i told Marion i was going to type this up she called it a midweek bible study. trust me we will be back to psalms soon but in light of this being midweek i want to leave you with this song to encourage you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDJT2QpXmas This is Light of Your Face by Misty Edwards. i want you to listen and smile.
