Power of a song...

So, a few years ago I attended a Children's Pastor's Conference in Orlando, FL. The worship leader, Michael Neale sang a song called "Come to Jesus" which just touched me so much at the time. You ever have those moments when someone says just want you needed to hear. Well that was the case with this song, which has stuck with me over the years. I love this simple reminder that no matter what we go through, it is never too big of a burden for our Savior to hold. I think of you, the few loyal readers that I know of, and some of the major burdens that you have had to carry over the years. I pray a prayer of thanksgiving that you all know the Lord, but also that you will let Him carry your burdens. So be encouraged by the words of this song:

He will lift your burden
Let Him carry the load
There’s no heart too heavy for
the arms of Jesus to hold
So if your heart is broken
Let Him heal you now
Though you feel so far away
Look up ‘cause you have been found

So come to Jesus
Wounded weary soul
Come to Jesus
He will make you whole

So child your Savior calls to you
He just wants you to know
That He will meet you where you are
Your hand he’ll never let go

So come to Jesus
Wounded weary soul
Come to Jesus
He will make you whole

He will lift your burdens
Let Him carry the load
There’s no heart too heavy for
There’s no heart too heavy for
There’s no heart too heavy for
the arms of Jesus to hold

"Come to Jesus" by Michael Neale

A few side notes...
  • A first happened in my life today. I got my teeth/gums "power washed" today. Have any of you ever experience this?
  • A beautiful small blanket of snow has fallen in our region today. Despite the snow and cold temperatures, I heard the birds chirping letting me know that spring isn't too far away!
  • Actually we're getting freezing rain right now. Maybe my work/school will be cancelled tomorrow!?
