Wonderful words

I have been listening to a lot of music and songs by Steven Curtis Chapman. He is a great song writer and artist! Some of my favorites of his are The Great Adventure, I will be here, and Cinderella.

I'm also trying to find and pick out some fun music for my graduation coming up. I will get to submit a few songs to see what the other grads think about them. So, I am really into music right now!

These songs move you and gloriously fill you up. We do have to remember though that our feelings is not what's important. A song may make you feel good, but does it glorify God? Here are some wonderful words by Steven Curtis Chapman:


I will be here
Tomorrow mornin' if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I...I will be here

If in the dark we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
'Cause I...I will be here

I will be here...
When you feel like bein' quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winnin' and losin' and tryin'
We'll be together
'Cause I will be here

Tomorrow mornin' if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I...I'll be here

Just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
I...I will be here

I will be here....
You can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you

And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here

I will be true
To the promise I have made
To you and to the
One who gave you to me

I...I will be here

And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
'Cause I...
I will be here....
We'll be together

'Cause I will be here

Happy Valentines Day!

In honor of Valentines day I just want to say I'm very thankful for these three couples. You all are wonderful examples and I love you all!

Keep up the good work!

Last week was the Josephine/Jackson County Right to Life Contest. We heard speeches from four very brave and expressive teenagers. They spoke with conviction and persuasiveness. We are thankful to God for the hard work of study and preparation that Natalie Emmons, Mary Owens, Aaron Sleadd and Faith Moore put into their presentations. We will be praying for Natalie as she was chosen to represent our county for the state Right to Life contest in Eugene April 5th. It was such a blessing to hear them all speak and we hope they have many more opportunities to share the powerful messages that they brought that night. These young people spoke out against abortion, gave hope to those who have suffered from the effects of it and encouraged everyone to pray and vote into office pro-life candidates. Praise God!!!
