CD Review and Giveaway: Miami Vineyard Live

I enjoyed listening to this worship CD and dancing along. It's a unique combination of Latin, Gospel, Island, and Funk styles. The music is so upbeat that you can't help but move your body. There are only 3 songs (out of 13 songs) that have a slower tempo. I especially love the music made by the saxophone and the flute. Brilliantly played! The lyrics are simple (sometimes a little too repetitive) but worshipful. The voices are good. The songs on this CD were recorded live at Miami Vineyard Community Church on February 18, 2011. I felt like I was there at the concert :). There are 13 songs on the CD:- Holy Spirit Come Gloria A Dios Solo (With My Whole Heart) Lord Reign in Me I Love Your Mercy At All Times (The Lord Is My Rock) If You Say Go Everything to Me With All of My Heart Your Name Is Great You Restored Me Breathe Hallelujah Anyhow How Great Is Our God Some of my favorites from this album include Lord Reign in Me, At All Times (The Lord Is My Rock), If You ...

21 Days of Prayer for Sons: When Hearts Soften

" What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? " (Matthew 16:26) Our sons' salvation should be our most important concern and most urgent prayer need. If they succeed in everything, receive praise and approval from all men, gain the riches of the world, yet they are not saved... that would be the greatest tragedy I could ever think of. My husband and I prayed for our children's salvation before they were born...even before they were conceived. In fact, I believe I prayed that God would not allow us to have a child if that child will not be saved by Him/will not choose Christ; I just could not (still cannot) bear knowing that any of my children's souls will end up in hell for eternity. Study Questions 1. Can you recall a time when you sensed your son's heart was soft to the message of the Gospel? Describe what happened here. They realized they needed a Savior. They repented and desired to obey God's Word. 2. Do yo...

21 Days of Prayer for Sons--Obedience

I'm participating in the 21 Days of Prayer for Sons based on the ebook, Warrior Prayers : Praying the Word for Boys in the Areas They Need it Most  by  Brooke McGlothlin . This prayer challenge officially starts today. We are assigned to read pp.13-14 in the ebook. The topic for today is The Importance of Obedience. I prayed the Scriptures on obedience and submission to authority on pp.15-16 for my sons. Study Questions 1. Describe the first time your son(s) deliberately disobeyed you. Did you recognize it immediately? How did it make you feel? I honestly don't remember the first time my sons deliberately disobeyed me. I'm sure I recognized it immediately :). I probably felt sad and upset. I've heard before that even if your children did what you told them to do but chose to do it later (not when you indicated) or do it a different way than you told them to (thinking they knew better = pride) or do it grudgingly (wrong attitude), then they still have not ob...

What A Blessed Mom I Am!

What makes me a proud mom? First and foremost, I thank the Lord for blessing me (and my husband) with three precious children! Being their mom is priceless. I am so humbled by what the Lord has done in my children's lives. Yes, proud and humbled at the same time! I am most proud (filled with indescribable joy) that all my three children love the Lord and walk in the truth (God's truth). " I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth ." (3 John 4) They are living a life of faith, love, and integrity. They are obedient, respectful, truthful, cheerful, thoughtful, and thankful (most of the time :)). To me, my children's soul, heart, and character are way more important than their accomplishments. With that said, they have accomplished plenty. My 17 year old daughter, Alyssa , loves kids and has a heart for orphans and for saving the preborn. She enjoys volunteering as a teacher's helper in the pre-school class at chu...
