SPIRITUAL SUNDAY

Welcome to Spiritual Sunday click HERE and visit our Host and other inspirational posters.

The Christmas Season is upon us ,that wonderful time of the year to celebrate the greatest gift the world has ever known. The gift of a SAVIOR.


For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Once in every universe
Some world is worry-torn
And hungry for a global lullaby.
O rest poor race, and hurtle on through space __
God has umbilicated Himself to straw,
Laid by this thunderbolts and learned to cry.
~Calvin Miller

We call him many things , but SAVIOR is the most profound . The redemption song we will sing in Heaven is a song that the Angels will not be singing with us.
Love in Christ,

Then Sings My Soul Saturday

Welcome to Then Sings My Soul Saturday , To visit our Host and others that are praising & worshiping the Lord today click HERE.

Today I have a video with the song Born Again by Third Day .Watch this video and be Blessed as you remember your first Love and the Joy of knowing Him for the first time !

Today I found myself
After searching all these years
And the man that I saw, he wasn't at all who I thought he'd be
I was lost when you found me here
And I was broken beyond repair
Then you came along and you sang your song over me

It feels like I'm born again
It feels like I'm living
For the very first time
For the very first time
In my life

Make a promise to me now
Reassure my heart somehow
That the love that I feel is so much more real than anything
I've a feeling in my soul
And I pray that I'm not wrong
That the life I have now, it is only the beginning

It feels like I'm born again
It feels like I'm living
For the very first time
For the very first time
It feels like I'm breathing
It feels like I'm moving
For the very first time
For the very first time

I wasn't looking for something that was more
Than what I had yesterday
Then you came to me and you gave to me
Life and a love that I've never known
That I've never felt before

It feels like I'm born again
It feels like I'm living
For the very first time
I'm living for the first time
It feels like I'm breathing
It feels like I'm moving
For the very first time
I'm living for the first time
In my life

"He came to me and gave me Life and a Love that I had never known before ", Thank you Jesus for the Joy you brought to my Life.

Thanks for joining me today , I hope you have a wonderful blessed day !
Love in Christ,

Children's Book Review

Today I am reviewing the children's book " The Tallest of the smalls" written by Max Lucado and illustrated by Maria Monescillo. This is a parable from from his book Fearless(not a children's book).This is a story about a boy named Ollie who lived in the town of Stiltsville ,who wanted to be loved and feel he was special .Each evening at six , they handed out stilts. Which everyone wanted, to be in the "in crowd". Ollie was short and had patches on his pants . He really wanted to be given those stilts so he could fit in and feel good about himself. Finally one day his name was called and he got his chance at wearing the stilts . But, things did not turn out well for him and he fell off. Then,someone came and helped him , a person who loved him unconditionally . I think you can guess who that was. Jesus, the only one who really validates our worth.

I love this book and it's wonderful message for kids in this world where they are given so many messages about how to fit in and be accepted . Unconditional love is what they seek and that is how our Lord loves us. I read it to my grand kids and they loved it ;I recommend it.

Below is a video of Max Lucado telling about the book,


I am a blogging reviewer for Thomas Nelson Publishers. For more information about becoming a reviewer click HERE. If you interested in the book click HERE.

Thanks so much for reading my review and please stop by often .8~)

Spiritual Sunday

Welcome to Spiritual Sunday , To visit our host& others who are sharing their heart this Sunday click HERE.

Today I have the 100 Psalm

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! Serve the Lord with gladness!Come into his presence with singing!
Know that the Lord, he is God!It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving,and his courts with praise!Give thanks to him; bless his name!
For the Lord is good;his steadfast love endures forever,and his faithfulness to all generations.

And a Poem

This is Thanksgiving by Richie A. Tankersley

Families close-gathered with love-gentle faces ,

memories of friendships and warm special places,

heads bowed in prayer with hand touching hand,

the smile-to-smile message each heart understands...

This is true happiness.....

this is Thanksgiving........

And a Prayer

My prayer is that we all would honor & thank the Lord, Jesus for his many blessings & that we then will enjoy the great Love & Blessings he has given us. May you have the most Blessed Thanksgiving ever !
Love in Christ,
~Myrna Lee

Hay rolled & left to dry in a field.
We are not there yet, but here is a preview , this is Jasmine with Eeyore the horse she will ride today.
On the way we past a park flooded from the Nor'easter that passed through here last week.

We have turned off now on to the road of Steppin Heaven Farms, (click on name to visit website) the Horse Farm we are going to in Louisburg , NC( In the south , they are called Horse Farms & not Ranches I don't know why , I think it probably has to do with size )

We have made it , There is Jasmine on Eeyore with her riding instructor in the background.
I hope you enjoyed this Outdoor Wednesday. I loved having you along,

Then Sings My Soul Saturday& Spiritual Sunday

Today I have Mercy Me singing Hold Fast . I love this song & I love Mercy Me. To visit Spiritual Sunday click HERE, for Then Sings My Soul Saturday click HERE and BE Blessed!






If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.

Psalm 139:8-10



To everyone who's hurting
To those who've had enough
To all the undeserving
That should cover all of us
Please do not let go
I promise there is hope

Hold fast
Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is His grasp
So hold fast

Will this season ever pass?
Can we stop this ride?
Will we see the sun at last?
Or could this be our lot in life?
Please do not let go
I promise you there's hope

You may think you're all alone
And there's no way that anyone could know
What you're going through
But if you only hear one thing
Just understand that we are all the same
Searching for the truth
The truth of what we're soon to face
Unless someone comes to take our place
Is there anyone?
All we want is to be free
Free from our captivity, Lord
Here He comes

I hope this song has blessed you today . Jesus is our hero and he has & will save the day. But sometimes it doesn't look that way. Bad things still happen to good people ,we all ultimately are going to leave this world we know . It is Faith that will keep us because we know him & we believe what he has done & what he is going to do . We know the ending of the story . Praise Jesus , He has promised us a glorious ending in Heaven ,So Hold Fast , our Help is on the Way.
Have a Blessed Week,
~Myrna Lee
