Sunday Praise

Verses from Psalm 9 I will praise thee , O Lord , with my whole heart ; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works . I will be glad and rejoice in thee : I will sing praise to thy name , O thou most High . But the Lord shall endure for ever : he hath prepared his throne for judgment. And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed , a refuge in times of trouble. And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee : f or thou, Lord , hast not forsaken them that seek thee. Sing praises to the Lord , which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings . What is He doing in your life? I would love to hear you declare it!

Sunday Praise

Psalm 95 Come, let us shout joyfully to the Lord , shout triumphantly to the rock of our salvation! 2  Let us enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us shout triumphantly to Him in song. 3  For the Lord is a great God, a great King above all gods. 4  The depths of the earth are in His hand, and the mountain peaks are His. 5  The sea is His; He made it. His hands formed the dry land. 6  Come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. 7  For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, the sheep under His care.

Tennessee Aquarium

My children love hands-on learning. What better way to learn than to use your five senses: see, smell, touch, hear, taste! Of course at the Tennessee Aquarium, tasting may be a little out of the question, unless you enjoy raw fish, bugs, or river water (Y uck! ); but the remaining four senses come in handy. (And by the way, they do have tasty food close by, if you're hungry) Over the years we have visited the Tennessee Aquarium (located in Chattanooga, Tn) often.

Locks of Love

A couple weeks ago, my youngest daughter cut off her long locks of hair. Summer time is here and it is getting a little hot. It was hard to keep up with combing all those tangles out each time she jumps in and out of the pool.  So after some convincing, mostly because she had in her head, that long hair made her smart, we decided to go get it cut.

Deadly Devotion - Revell Blog Tour

In accordance with FTC requirements, I must disclose that this post contains advertisement for purchase of the following book, and that I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for reviewing it. But am only asked to give my honest opinion . Kate knows the truth is out there-but if she's right, that means a killer is out there too. Research scientists Kate Adams and Daisy Leacock were on the brink of a breakthrough for treating depression with herbal medicine when Daisy was suddenly found dead. Kate knows that her mentor's death wasn't suicide or a careless accident-and she's determined to do whatever it takes to unearth the truth about what happened to the woman who changed her life.

The Beloved Daughter by Alana Terry Review

In accordance with FTC requirements, I must disclose that this post contains advertisement for purchase of the following book, and that I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for reviewing it. But am only asked to give my honest opinion. In a small North Korean village, a young girl struggles to survive.Catastrophic floods have ravaged her countryside. But it is her father’s faith, not the famine of North Hamyong Province, that most threatens Chung-Cha’s well-being. Is Chung-Cha’s father right to be such a vocal believer? Or is he a fool to bring danger on the head of his only daughter?   Chung-Cha is only a girl of twelve and is too young to answer such questions. Yet she is not too young to face a life of imprisonment and forced labor. Her crime? Being the daughter of a political dissident.

Psalm 150 Praise the Lord . Praise God in his sanctuary;      praise him in his mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power;      praise him for his surpassing greatness. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,      praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing,      praise him with the strings and pipe,   praise him with the clash of cymbals,      praise him with resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord . Praise the Lord
