So, recently it was my Dad who was getting props for how his example influenced my faith and allowed me to take prayer that bit more seriously. At this time I now think of my mother as I listen to this song. There is the tendency to worry. Doesn’t take much to see why – […]
Read More Be Still My SoulYou know certain songs remind you of certain places and certain times and certain people. I hear this song and I think of Wellingborough, I think of my younger teen years and I think of my Dad. Back in the day I couldn’t care less about praying. Especially prayer meetings, they were good times to […]
Read More Sweet Hour of PrayerOver the last few days I’ve been making up for lost time with the great Kim Burrell and this is her again near her best despite protestations of not having much of a voice. Great song and a nice little bit from another classic with her all star women choir. Apparently there are some familiar […]
Read More Expect A Miracle & ChangedThis is a brilliant example of what happens when you put three great singers on a stage together. Typical americans and their penchant for celebrating to the hilt and beyond that people get trippy over the three singers, but to be fair they are outstanding singers who happen to be singing about someone even more […]

I should […]
Read More Jesus Children of AmericaLater on today I’ll write in more detail about the day today. Just to say it is my birthday. 33 years old today. There has to be some perks to your birthday when you hit a certain age. No more is it about the parties and possibly even the cards. Now you look for other […]
Read More Birthday Indulgence – Abundant LifeIt’s not that long before a very key date in my calendar and so in the run-up to it, I feel it’s only fitting to pull out some of the big hitters from what I enjoy and I don’t think it gets too much better than this. Karen Clark-Sheard ably accompanied by Mary Mary putting […]
