Music is what brings me healing, tears, happiness & joy. I LOVE MUSIC. I listen to contemporary christian oldies, country classics & pop.
I was closest to the Lord in the early 80's so these songs touch me now. It takes me back to those days when I was my strongest with him.
I remember the days that I attended so many Christian Concerts. The ones I volunteered at. KSBJ in Houston,TX is where I was introduced to this music. I worked for Petra, Rez Band, Mylon Lefevere, Leon Patillo, Michael Card, Whiteheart. Wow tellin my age now ha ha.
Just recently I have found a website that offers me 6 stations of contemporary christian music from the 80's. It is bringing me closer to him.I am finding that peace that I have looked for for 10 yrs.
I am sad as I listen to these those. It makes me angry that I let so many years go by that I did not stay close to him. I have regrets & disappointments. But it's ok I am forgiven & with his grace & unconditional love. I will be closer to him. He is helping me with my doubts, struggles, & fears.
I miss my children. Especially my 15 yr old daughter & new granddaughter.
Please pray for me.
I was down loading songs and came across this song That is realistic & so me... If you get a chance to hear it listen to it. It will touch you. It has helped me grow & is slowly healing me.
I have regrets about the mother I was to my childern especially with them being out of the house now.
Hug your children, tell them you love them and they are special.I told mine this everyday. But, I didn't tell them Jesus cares about the realistic, everyday, things that this world and everyday life throws at them. Just show his love thru you to them.
Thanks for your prayers, love and support.
Being led by him with his gentle faith,

I Want to Be Just Like You
Phillips, Craig & Dean
He climbs in my lap for a goodnight hug
He calls me Dad and I call him Bub
With his faded old pillow and a bear named Pooh
He snuggles up close and says, "I want to be like you"
I tuck him in bed and I kiss him goodnight
Trippin' over the toys as I turn out the light
And I whisper a prayer that someday he'll see
He's got a father in God 'cause he's seen Jesus in me
*chorus:
Lord, I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be just like me
I want to be a holy example
For his innocent eyes to see
Help me be a living Bible, Lord
That my little boy can read
I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be like me
*Got to admit I've got so far to go
Make so many mistakes and I'm sure that You know
Sometimes it seems no matter how hard I try
With all the pressures in life I just can't get it all right
But I'm trying so hard to learn from the best
Being patient and kind, filled with Your tenderness
'Cause I know that he'll learn from the things that he sees
And the Jesus he finds will be the Jesus in me
*chorus
*Right now from where he stands I may seem mighty tall
But it's only 'cause I'm learning from the best Father of them all
*Lord, I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be just like me
I want to be a holy example
For his innocent eyes to see
Help me be a living Bible, Lord
That my little boy can read
Lord I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be like me
*Lord I want to be just like you
cause he wants to be like me
