Heard this song on the radio the other day; I happened to be listening to a children's radio program called "Paws & Tales". That's what happens when you're a radio button pusher. I thought it was a beautiful song and contacted the station to find out who it was. It's a woman named Sandy Howell, from Southern California. This song was at the end of a "Paws & Tales" episode called "The Perfect Christmas Gift". Sandy wrote the song. Lovely.

The Daily Pulse (Thursday, December 6, 2012): The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. Psalm 28:7 (NIV)

Join us this Christmas for an inspiring walk through Luke 2 as we remember the birth of Jesus. "Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord!"

I gave my 3 yr old grandson a children's bible to keep him occupied and I went back to work on my computer. As he started to read my spirit rose up and I started to have an overwhelming feeling. I listened as he read and immediately I felt so humbled at how precious our children are and that God can speak through the mouths of babes. Jesus said "Suffer the little children to come to me. For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these" Amen

What's it like to dip into the cool waters of a lake at 7am and swim for 1.2 miles; then grab your bicycle, and peddle your way through a 56 miles (up and down hills) course; park your bike and run 13.1 miles? Watch video and see. Great ending to this video!

The Daily Pulse (Wednesday, December 5, 2012): A sluggard does not plow in season; so at harvest time he looks but finds nothing. Proverbs 20:4 (NIV)

My wife and I just got to see Michael W. Smith the other evening on his "A Very Special Christmas" concert tour. What a delight! He had a full orchestra with him as he played grand piano. Later on a large choir joined them. It was so majestic.This is one of the songs he did.

Celebrando por la paz de Dios en Chiapas Mexico

What a wonderful Christmas song from Francesca. This is from her 2012 album "Christmas". She co-wrote the song. Nice. My only complaint is the "little bit of heaven everywhere" line; maybe I'm nitpicking, but when I look around I see a *lot* of heaven everywhere. But I get what she's trying to say. There are many little details that sometimes we miss because we are looking at the big picture.
