Moments

Once in a while an opportunity arises out of the blue and it's up to us to find a way to take advantage of it.
I've been a fan of Cindy Morgan since early 1992 when she released her debut album, Real Life.
 Part of the fun of music for me when I was younger was discovering new artists. Before the internet there really wasn't a way to do this other than listening to the radio (which I was never really a fan of) or just buying albums. My strategy was to pick albums based on the cover. Sometimes this was a miserable fail but other times it worked really well, as it did when I bought this one. Full of pop songs and ballads, it was what I needed.

 I continued buying all of her works as they released and grew to love the lyrics this woman wrote. Her songs ministered to me over the years in ways that few other artists did.

 On Sunday I was scrolling through Facebook and up popped an announcement for a Cindy Morgan show the next day. A little under two hours from home. How did I not know about this? I quickly texted my friend who is also a fan and we decided this was kismet.

 After making sure we could attend and finding out it was a taping for Cornerstone Television we hit the road.
The show will air on Saturday November 28 (Thanksgiving weekend) at 6:00 PM


The set up was that of a living room, couches and chairs and a few candlelit tables. Very intimate and lovely. Less than twenty people in the audience. My soul needed this. 
Cindy's latest release is Bows and Arrows
If you are looking for some new music with lyrical depth then I urge you to purchase this. The songs are written with an unparalleled expertise and each one has ministered to  me in a different way. I've had this album for a little over two months and each week have been stuck on a different song. This album is proof of Cindy's staying power, she's an artist who has grown and changed over the years. Consider purchasing it.

It's Not A Blessing if you Had to Sin to Get it

Pretty strong words but also very true. I once heard a man say his girlfriend was, "A gift from God."  Except she wasn't because she was still married to someone else. Glenn wiggled in and turned her head and snatched her away from her husband and children. How dare he think God had anything to do with that. He doesn't work that way. If you want His blessings then you need to walk closely with Him. He will never bless sin. He can't. He is unable to. Sin is what separates us from God.  Glenn may think he is living a blessed life as he runs on emotions and feelings but nothing like this will prosper. In the end it will lead to destruction.  It already has. The family he destroyed will never be the same.

Front Row Seat

  If you've been around me any length of time, you'll know I love having a front row seat when possible. Church. Concerts. Comedy shows. Auctions. I want to be front and center, where the action is, so I don't get distracted and miss something. I want to be part of the event and front is where it's at.  Lately I've had a front row seat to some things that I wish I could unsee. My mother's Alzheimer's diagnosis and the last year and a half of watching her slow and steady decline into a world of unknowns has taken a toll.  I tend to hold every emotion inside. Always have. I've learned -these past fifteen months or so- that this is bad for my health. Stress levels are impacting how I feel. Palpitations, and a diagnosis of "harmless" PACs, have left me trying to manage this stress. It's gotten easier but, I'll admit, I still have things shoved down inside. And then along came CDH. A diagnosis I'd not heard of before it was given to gran
