(my very favorite hymn)
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy praise;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise His Name! I’m fixed upon it,
Name of God’s Redeeming Love.
Hither to Thy love has blessed me; Thou hast brought me to [...]

(Stairs at the hockey rink. I miss that place.)
I am NOT a resolution girl. I used to be. New Years was my very favorite (OOH! New Diet! New Goals! New Shiny Things!) But meh. Lately, not so much. See, I don’t want to break those “promises” to myself anymore, and that’s what always (inevitably) happened…

In 1880, in reply to a correspondent, Charles Darwin wrote
“I am sorry to have to inform you that I do not believe in the Bible as a divine revelation, & therefore not in Jesus Christ as the Son of God.”
Abraham Lincoln, the [...]

When I think about the Lord
How He saved me, how He raised me
How He filled me with the Holy Ghost
How He healed me to the uttermost

How He set my feet on solid ground
It makes me wanna shout;
“Hallelujah, thank You Jesus,
Lord You’re worthy [...]

apparently, that’s the way to go these days.
“Amongst the things that Barack Obama carries for good luck are a bracelet belonging to a soldier deployed in Iraq, a gambler’s lucky chit, a tiny monkey god and a tiny Madonna and child.”
