Quote of the Day:
“What promise I have found in this Badlands sunrise. What change is manifested from the presence of light. As often as I have found myself desperate and detached in an abandoned backdrop from life’s challenges, I have not always paid enough attention to the arrival of light to note a significant metamorphosis to the point where worship is possible. But to know that the potential exists—that when in the most parched and bleak environments of life, perspective can change so much so that this forsaken place actually becomes a beautiful canvas full of limitless promise … this moves me to worship, and this moves me to silence.”
~”Finding God in the Badlands” by Sarah Anderson

Verse of the Day:
“The Lord will march forth like a mighty hero;
he will come out like a warrior, full of fury.
He will shout his battle cry
and crush all his enemies.
He will say, “I have long been silent;
yes, I have restrained myself.
But now, like a woman in labor,
I will cry and groan and pant.
I will level the mountains and hills
and blight all their greenery.
I will turn the rivers into dry land
and will dry up all the pools.
I will lead blind Israel down a new path,
guiding them along an unfamiliar way.
I will brighten the darkness before them
and smooth out the road ahead of them.
Yes, I will indeed do these things;
I will not forsake them. ”
~Is 42:13-16

Lyrics of the Day:
“Mama said I never should have done it
Should have ended us before we ever started
Daddy knew about my pride so he stood there
And he smiled inside and I pretended that I
Didn’t notice a little tear that fell when I said I was going
An I’ll grab the wheel and point it west
Pack the good and leave the rest
I’ll drive until I find the missing piece
You said I wouldn’t get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart
But I have everything I’ll ever need
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings
I’ve worried about life and
If it’s arriving right on time
I guess if you don’t jump
You’ll never know if you can fly”

Lyrics of the Day:
“There were three
Before the king
There were three who wouldn’t bow to him
For when you heard
The music play
And you were standing you would burn.
They looked at him and said…
Burn us up! Burn us up! Burn us up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire
We give up! We give up! We give up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire!
Won’t you throw us in the fire!
The king enraged
At what they said
Sent the three away to find their death
The palace stopped in unbelief
When the guilty raised their hands to sing
They looked at him and said…
You are able to deliver from the fire of affliction
It’s the declaration of my Lord
You’re not an image of gold
You’re the God of old
You have made us
Come and save us
We are Yours
But even if You don’t, we will burn!”
