I'm thinking of that gentle Saturday morning not long past, in the relaxed company of a couple of the creative grand-girls.
Together we idled the time away, feet up {theirs literally}, doing a few fun art projects, chit-chatting away, playing on our tablets, the little one casually launching into spontaneous one handed cartwheels and death-defying splits at a moment's notice.
And singing.

The hours passed by with songs of praise playing in continuous forward motion all thanks to You Tube. Ol' Grandma learned a few new praises, the three of us loving the songs that were belovedly familiar. I relished the sound of their sweet voices singing quietly, with occasional bursts of energy and joy. And I joined in with them.
How cool to all say at the same time, 'Ohhh, I LOVE this song!'
I can't think of anything I'd rather do than sing to the Lord with the next generation. It just doesn't get better than that. Our hearts united by more than genetics and history, eternally knit close by our mutual love for the Holy One we sing to.

That chart-topping band Kutless has a brand new rock / worship album, their 10th one ... and I'm absolutely sure that the gang will love ALPHA / OMEGA. Maybe I'll bring their music along when we gather for Thanksgiving. And maybe all twelve of us will sing King of My Heart together.
I'd love that. And I can't help but believe that He would, too.
I'm super happy to share this year's 3rd Stocking Stuffer Giveaway today! Maybe you'll be the one to take a copy of ALPHA / OMEGA on your next journey to see someone you love ... to tuck deep into a Christmas stocking ... or give as a lovely hostess gift.
