Dave Pics from iPhone sunrise June 10 2011

I couldn’t get the picture fast enough this morning.  Still kind of cool; still beauty of God; but seconds before the horizontal cloud split the sunlight.  Maybe next time.

Mercies new every morning.  Sometimes I really need to hear that.

When I am afraid … I am not afraid.

When I Am Afraid by Dave Scott from Psalm 53:3-4

  • Psalm 56:3–4 (NASB95)
    When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You.  4 In God, whose word I praise, In God I have put my trust; I shall not be afraid.

When I Am Afraid by dave scott

  • 2 Corinthians 12:9–10 (NKJV)
    And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

New Mercy Every Morning …

New Mercies Every Morning …

The Lord’s love never ends; his mercies never stop.  

They are new every morning; Lord, your loyalty is great (Lamentations 3:22–23 NCV).

 A new day will dawn on us from above because our God is loving and merciful (Luke 1:78 GW).

When I Lay My Burdens Down, An American Spiritual

More disclosure of the hick that I am, I guess.  I love all types of music; studied classical piano and classical guitar in college and love it. I love and play contemporary Christian music and old hymns of the faith. But country gospel is my roots.  No apologies.

When I Lay My Burdens Down, An American Spiritual

  • 1 Peter 5:6–7 (GW)
    Be humbled by God’s power so that when the right time comes he will honor you.  7 Turn all your anxiety over to God because he cares for you.

More from my music archives. I added the harmony part this morning.  I can remember singing this with my friend Bob at Portage, Indiana.  When Bob sang and played the guitar, you were ready to kick your shoes off and go sit on the front porch and listen.

Hope you enjoy.

May God bless you on the path of Jesus.  May you be blessed with the faith to lay your burdens on God.  May I see you one day at our “home beyond the river.”

From the deep end of the love of Jesus,
Dave

Our pursuit of life …

Our pursuit of life …

Does our pursuit of life hinder our pursuit of God and his truth and the life he offers?

Forgotten God … Or maybe not?

From Francis Chan – Forgotten God

But God didn’t want a good slave who tried really hard. He wanted me to see that he was a good Father.
