Things in my life that need to be changed perhaps.. I need more discipline.... I have great want to but some days I have no discipline. I have been praying about that.. If ever we need to be praying and seeking HIS face it is now....Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12492336975389718296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32175001.post-72176707185286549572010-06-07T00:19:24.826-04:002010-06-07T00:19:24.826-04:00Don't think I know this one, I'll have to ...Don't think I know this one, I'll have to look it up and maybe get to listen to the tune. The words are beautiful and so true.<br /><br />I don't like much what I see on TV about our country...but then if I look around carefully enough,b I notice acts of kindness and goodness each and every day. This is what keeps me encouraged.Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16140046660664590895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32175001.post-86619495745558593922010-06-07T00:00:48.887-04:002010-06-07T00:00:48.887-04:00That is a beautiful hymn, Maxine.

Your words also brought to mind the words of the wonderful hymn: <br />Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of His glory and grace.<br /><br />I loved learning about Mrs. Alexander, a true, Godly hero. Our world needs more like her..."Saviour, may we hear thy call." I agree with Susan, we who love Him must respond and obey.<br />Blessings and love,<br />LaurieLauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11818912037373656469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32175001.post-11200446113720303462010-06-06T10:46:16.402-04:002010-06-06T10:46:16.402-04:00I do know that lovely hymn Maxine.

I love the worship music in our church, but whenever we get to sing a hymn it just blesses everyone.<br />I feel the same way about our country. I think the change needs to begin with those of us who are believers just as you've said.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937532276250199445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32175001.post-39581447303032806262010-06-06T07:30:33.362-04:002010-06-06T07:30:33.362-04:00Very familiar with this old hymn and how appropria...Very familiar with this old hymn and how appropriate for today. Yes, Jesus calls us to be all He intends for us to be, both individually and collectively as His Body. Oh, may we hear His voice, but even more important than hearing.....may we respond and obey.
