Today is the 131st anniversary of her death. I agree with you about <i>Stepping Heavenward</i>. Though the book is more than a century old, it is still worth reading. Authors such as Joni Eareckson Tada, Elisabeth Elliot and Kay Arthur recommend it.<br /><br />And you pinpoint the 3rd stanza of Mrs. Prentiss's hymn, stunning in its insight--and similar in spirit to the words of the Apostle Paul (II Cor. 12:7-10). I'm sure many Christians sing them on a Sunday morning without thinking! But the level of spiritual maturity they represent is still beyond me.roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435373461292769832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32175001.post-81850516097413918842007-07-11T14:23:00.000-04:002007-07-11T14:23:00.000-04:00As you know, this is one of my very favorite hymns...As you know, this is one of my very favorite hymns.

I also like a lot of the contemporary Christian music, too. My favorite songs are ones written directly from scripture.<BR/>SusanSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11360047123820906113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32175001.post-20532699248279158532007-07-07T22:05:00.000-04:002007-07-07T22:05:00.000-04:00Oh good, Sara!
