This cross is happenstance in our court. It was not in my design or my intention but none-the-less appeared to me not too long after it was finished. The artist who created the area in question was not to my knowledge a follower of Jesus, but certainly showed signs of being a spiritual man. Whether he left a message in his work or not I’ll never know. In fact, I don’t really need to know. And that being the case, the question of happenstance now becomes one of His design.
The fourth song released from the ‘Love Strands’ project. A song inspired by Psalm 103:2 ‘Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me.’

Lyrics:
Surely I’ve been delivered
Surely I’ve walked in your grace
Surely I’ve known your favor
Surely I’ve been blessed by the heavens
Surely I’ve slept in peace
Surely I’ve been led to still waters
Surely I’ve known your comfort
Surely I’ve been led to green pastures
Let all that I am shower you with goodness
Let all that I am honor you with praise
May I never forget all the love you’ve poured upon me
Let all that I am be an offering for all of my days
Surely, I’ve been forgiven
Surely, I’ve been made clean
Surely, I’ve known your kindness
Surely, I’ve known goodness and mercy
Oh, that I’d weave your mercies into song
That my jewels of praise would form another crown for your head
That my soul would give off sweet, sweet music
For your mercy endureth forever

An aging train trestle found on an inlet in Brevard County, Florida. A frequent haven for sea cows (manatees), it remains a quiet waterway nestled among the historic town of Old Melbourne. The bridge is still in use with quite a bit of freight train traffic. In a world of growing violence and senseless attacks, the simple message with the powerful request is what first caught my eye. Though in retrospect, the appeal seems to incorporate a lot more than that!
In keeping with the new year, the song of the month All That I Am, was inspired by Spurgeon’s morning meditation on Psalm 103:2 – Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me.
Oh, that I’d weave your mercies into song
That my jewels of praise would form another crown
That my soul would give off sweet, sweet music
For your mercy endureth forever

I’m kicking off the New Year by releasing the fourth song from the Love Strands album. Last month’s song, Oh Loving God, Help Us, produced some interesting conversations. Your moments of sharing are always a blessing to me!
As of this writing, I’m on the other side of playing a pretty domestic role through the holidays, and now, with the New Year, I’m prepping for my journey south in a couple of weeks. Watch for the release of the Love Strands album on February 14, 2020!
Now go, and play nice!

The romance of train travel is not lost on me. I’ve fallen in love with the rhythm of the rails. In today’s race to rush world, Here’s a glimpse of a relaxed, and simpler time. I invite you to climb aboard and take a deep breath, maybe read that book you haven’t found the time to read, or better yet, just take a nap.
