Advent Calendar - Day 5

This is by far one of my favorite songs.  It has a triple meaning.  


1. Any parent I've ever known has said having a baby completely changed their life.
2. Jesus came as a baby and changed everything for the world.
3. When you accept Christ, your life is forever changed.


Faith Hill sings it beautifully... It's just such a good song.  Enjoy...

Advent Calendar - Day 4

I feel like this song draws a picture and really reminds me/helps me to picture how crazy it was for Jesus to come to this crazy world, how lost the world is without Him. 


Christmas has always represented a happy time of year but this song depicts the true joy of this occasion, for how lost would we be without Him.

Advent Calendar - Day 3

Lately, life's been a little busy and while I'm doing my best to slow down and enjoy the Christmas season.... I don't feel like I'm doing a very good job. (whoopsy!) So, I heard this song today and knew it had to be the song for the day.  Hoping I can get my holiday stress under control and start enjoying this beautiful season.

Advent Calendar - Day 2

Whenever this song comes on I can't help but dance in my chair... 
See if you can resist...

Advent Calendar - Day 1

Music, on the generally whole, really means a lot to me.  It can change my mood in an instant and move me to tears.  So after doing one thing to be thankful for each day in November, I figured it would be a nice little Advent calendar kind of way to prepare myself for Christmas if I did one song each day in December leading up until Christmas day.  

So here's December 1st:

This hard place...

"This hard place in which you perhaps find yourself is the very place in which God is giving you opportunity to look only to Him, to spend time in prayer, and to learn long-suffering, gentleness, meekness - in short, to learn the depths of the love that Christ Himself has poured out on all of us."
                                                                                                                     - Elizabeth Elliot


Trying to learn, in this hard place.

Embrace the Camera

This past Friday Mike and I went to the Night of Joy at Disney.  It's about sixteen christian artists who have mini-concerts over two days.

We were only there one night but saw Francesca Battistelli, Disciple, Group 1 Crew, Matthew West, and Skillet. My legs hurt at the end of the night but it was great to see some great music in concert!
