Wednesday Worship: Lift Him Up

I feature a lot of gospel music that I would call worship. The lyrics talk directly to the Father and let Him know that I recognize who He is.

But there are other categories of gospel music. Some songs encourage believers in their walk. Some testify to God's goodness. Some are songs of thanks. Some reiterate the promises of God. Some simply praise God, showing appreciation for all God has done.

This one I would categorizing as both a testimony to God's goodness and a song of praise. It's an old hymn that was rearranged and was a popular gospel song, at least in the NY area, back in the 1970's. Call it a classic.

Benny Cummings and the Kings Temple COGIC Choir singing, "Lift Him Up".

Cardboard Testimonies

Yesterday I was talking about personal struggles, in particular self-sabotage.

This is a bit lengthy, about eight minutes, but when you have a moment, take a look. You can't help but to be touched and to think about your own life.

I suspect many folks have more than one of these cardboard testimonies in their lives. I know I do. Here's one:

Suffered depression following stillbirth of only daughter.
Restored and renewed by His love; gifted with three healthy sons.

Do you have a cardboard testimony? If you're not sure or you've only completed the first side of your cardboard, you should meet my friend.

His name is Jesus.

Peace & Blessings,
Patricia

I Will Bless The Lord

This song rang in my head all day yesterday. When that happens, the song usually will continue playing throughout the night, while I sleep, and on into the next day or so.

Can't help it. Just happens.

But it's not a bad refrain. I will bless the Lord, Bless the Lord at all times...

Sending up heartsung praises.

Have you blessed the Lord today?

Peace & Blessings,
Patricia
