Okay …? What I have been calling a painful learning process, God is calling a light, momentary affliction that is working for me. Obviously, I've been working at cross purposes with God. I've been working my faith to get me “through” difficult circumstances—to get me to a place where I don't have to have such an overwhelming dependence upon God. God, however, has been working my faith—not so much to get me “through” what He refers to as light, momentary afflictions. He is working my faith to get me “to” a place of complete dependence upon Him—a place where I will consider any difficult circumstance as nothing more than just a light, momentary affliction.
I can't get enough of Meredith Andrews' newest album "Deeper". Not only does she have a lovely voice, but she is a talented songwriter, too. And she knows how to interact with all of the wonderfully talented musicians around her. She co-wrote this song along with Jason Ingram (who else?), called "Jesus Sees." Such a beautiful and comforting song. It reminds us that even on our "hardest days" when we think no one is noticing our struggles and nobody cares, Jesus does indeed see and offers us "perfect love and perfect peace."
Faith is not supposed to be the means by which we get something from God. Faith is supposed to be the means by which God gets something from us. God wants something from us. He wants our complete and total dependence upon Him. God is pursuing us—not our “needs” or our “wants.” Our faith was not designed as a means to gain “all these things.” Our faith was designed to gain the presence of God, and all that goes along with His presence. givemethatmountain.org/article/faith-and-unbelief-day-seventeen/
Wow, Meredith Andrews' new album "Deeper" is fantastic. For some reason I am drawn to the songs that are not necessarily "radio-ready" (in my uninformed opinion); I really like the more poignant ones, such as this one, called "Hands That Are Holding Me." Meredith co-wrote the song. What a jewel of a song. Also, the instrumentation is very nice, kudos for that, too.
Mereith Andews' new album "Deeper" was released last week. There are lots of good songs on the album. "Soar" has been out for a while; I already made a video for that one. And I've made a video for the title song, too. But I think my favorite song on the album is this one, called "Take Me Back."
Written by Meredith along with her hubby Jacob Sooter, and Benji Cowart. Awesome song, thanks to all of you.
I heard this song on KEWE radio while visiting Maui a few weeks ago. The artist is Carolyn Vargas, who recorded this song in 1997 on the label Swan Productions of Hawaii. Lovely song. I decided to make this video to go with it. So pretty. Such a blessing to God.
It sure seems like we do everything in our power to see how we can get out of living by faith. Oh, we may talk a good game. We act, however, as if living by faith is some kind of torture. But what if? What would life be like if we started doing everything in our power to see just how much we could live by faith in God—instead of how little?

Dr. Dobson observes that when a child challenges the authority of a parent, it's at least in part based on the universal human desire for power and control, and beckons that parent or adult authority figure to respond with an unwavering confidence and command. Or else...
While God's comfort is priceless, it is not all there is to faith—and believing that it is can prematurely shorten your life. Faith in God is the sure conviction of the truth of all that God is. It is more than a “feeling” about God based on assumptions; it is a “knowing” about God based on His Word.
