SCRIPTURE SONG




The Apostle Paul appeals to Christians in 
Colossians 3:16, 
"Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly
in all wisdom, teaching and 
admonishing one another in 
psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, 
singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord."

What's your favorite song or chorus?

It's so hard to pick a favorite. I love "Amazing Grace" and "In the Garden". Of course, the "Hallelujah Chorus" always sends chills up my spine.

Oh --hard question, Karin. Like George, there are so many. I love hearing the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sing "This is my Father's World"... It sends chills. At Christmas, my fav is "O Holy Night".... I could go on and on...

Hugs,

Ave Maria has always been my favorite. It was sung at our wedding 50 years ago in April. Those beautiful bushes in my mosaic are burning bushes. I don't know what the botanical name is, but they are everywhere here. I don't know about Ginko trees. I might have seen them not knowing what they were called. Have a great day.

Thanks all for sharing your thoughts! Invariably the song I hum to myself most often in a variety of life circumstances is How Great Thou Art! It's almost uncanny!

My favorite older hymn is "It Is Well With My Soul" and my favorite new one is the Getty song "The Power of the Cross"

My Love! Hans Peter Ristau  November 24, 1939 - May 21, 2013 EULOGY presented by his son Dr. Kenneth Andrew Ristau  Hans Peter Ristau was born to Karl and Martha Ristau on November 24th, 1939, in Berlin, Germany, only two and half months after the start of the War. Peter’s mother had five children from a previous marriage; with Karl she had Klaus, Peter and Renate. Klaus, Renate and Peter at their last visit So glad Renate was able to visit for a few weeks before Peter died.  Karl immigrated to Canada in 1950, settling in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Martha and the children followed later. Tragically, Peter's mother, Martha, died of cancer shortly afterwards. After spending a year in the care of his Tante Emma, he was reunited with his father, who had remarried. His step-mother Anna’s deep personal faith led the family into the community at the German Mission Baptist Church, where the entire family was baptized on November 6, 1955. Foreshadowing God’s ...

ARTIFICIAL OR REAL?

Image
The pastor made comments about the lovely flower arrangements decorating the front of the church. He used them as an excellent illustration about being real! They looked deceptively real, but were in fact artificial, fake, and phony. Not all things, or people for that matter, are the real thing. Imitations are passed off as the real thing everywhere one goes. Fake flowers and fake people can deceive us, but thankfully not for long. Counterfeit coins or counterfeit Christians – neither can be taken at face value. Being totally acquainted with the real thing, however, will give us the discernment to know when something or someone is fake! As I mulled over this picture, other thoughts crowded my mind. In our sanctuary, there is no access to natural light streaming in through beautiful, wide or stained glass windows. Even a child knows that without natural light real plants cannot grow. The reason we don’t have too many windows is probably because we fear they would invite vandalism...
