Just look around...


“Try and put your arms around the 100 year old tree
Climb up on a horse and let it run full speed
Take a look out at the world from 30,000 feet on your next flight
Watch a flock of birds against the morning sun
Close your eyes and listen to the river run
Catch a firefly in your hand or a raindrop on your tongue
That's right There is a God - How much proof do you need?
Plant a seed and see what comes out of the ground
Find the heartbeat on your baby's ultrasound
In a few years hear it laughing, and don't it sound like a song?
Stop and think about what you don't understand
Things like life and love and how the world began
Hear the doctor say he can't explain it, but the cancer is gone
There is a God - How much proof do you need?
Science says it's all just circumstance
Like this whole worlds just an accident
But if you want to shoot that theory down, look around
Just look around “




I recently made a promise to myself and to God, that the development of my faith and my walk with Him would be the central focus of my life.

I’ve taken to speaking my prayers aloud on my morning drive. I’ve chosen to pray instead of honking at people on the highway. And, I’ve taken refuge in the music of believers when I want to cry out in frustration.

I’ve been blessed with opportunities lately to share freely and unapologetically the Good News of Christ and I’ve endeavored to point to God in the way I live and love.

In light of this effort, today I’d like to share with you two songs that have spoken intimately to me…
Lee Ann Womack’s “There is a God” and Nichole Nordeman’s “I Am” – have a listen…
