Download or read book Gift of Another Breath written by Angella Dixon-Watson and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Initially, Angella Dixon-Watson started her journaling project so she could leave her grandchildren, Cierra and Chase, her story of surviving pancreatic cancer. And, friends and family encouraged her to share her experience beyond her family. While journaling she had another title. When the journal was completed she felt the need to change it and was in meditation. On Sunday morning last weekend in July 2017, after waking up and saying "thank you for the gift of another day," those words felt like a recitation to her. She paused. And then was prompted to say "thank you for the gift of another breath," and it felt right. It is her wish for the world to know that God blessed her with His Grace and Mercy. Angella is living the "Gift of Another Breath." She is in the 10 percent club of pancreatic cancer survivors. She feels that if she doesn't share with you about God's goodness, the mountains, rocks and hills will do it. "I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out." Luke 19:40 ESV

Book excerpt: "I found it (the story) at first sad and tragic, all the more to be uplifted by its outcome. What better ever proof of a miracle, of the value of family support, of the power of faith, of the hand of God, of the unpredictability of life. All in all it's a wonderful piece to read. What's more, you make readers care, because the woman (Jane Williams) and her family, including the convincing and articulate narrator, Dr. Henry, become real people in readers' minds, people they know well enough to worry about, to cheer for. I came to feel, thanks to Dr. Joel Hilaire's sharp and rich writing, that I was one of those people, close to the family, involved in every down-and-up event. To my mind you achieved exactly what you were after with this extensive true-to-life story."--Lou Fisher, from Long Ridge Writers Group

I'm glad that my sins are forgiven. I'm glad that I'm going to heaven when I die!

Download or read book Old School Hymnal written by Bryce H. Lowrance and published by Old School Hymnal Foundation. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the song of Moses on the shore of the Red Sea, to the hymn at the close of our Lord’s first communion, the singing of psalms, hymns and spiritual songs is an essential part of worship for God’s people. In the wisdom of the Glorious Creator, God created man in his image, which included a voice – a uniquely human instrument capable of producing melody. And so, our Lord delights in worship with the voice of praise. From the psalms composed by David on the grassy hillsides of Bethlehem, to the thunderous chorus of “Holy! Holy! Holy!” offered by the seraphim in the throne room of heaven, expressions of singing in worship are evident. And notably, Zephaniah declared the Lord rejoices in singing Himself: “The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.” (Zephaniah 3:17). Truly, God’s people rejoice in songs of praise through the ages. By singing Psalms in the early church, in quiet whispers of praise in dens and caves of the earth during persecution, singing praises to our Lord endures. In recent centuries, times of revival and despair alike have sown seeds of creativity, and hymns of praise blossomed and bloomed. As such, visionary men like Elder Lee Hanks, saw fit to collect hymns, true to God’s word in sentiment, and place them in hymnbook form to use in worship. To commemorate the 100th year of the Old School Hymnal, with hearts set on the glory of God, and enveloped by our rich history of worship in song, we the members of the newly restructured, non-profit Old School Hymnal Foundation Board, humbly present to you the Centennial Edition. In 1920, the founding members of the 1st edition presented a compilation of beloved hymns. In updating the hymnal, we prayerfully labored to honor their focus, endeavoring to maintain treasured, long-standing hymns, while also offering new compositions. We believe the Lord blessed us to remain true to scripture and honor Him with the words and melodies selected. In following the footsteps of our forefathers in hymnody, we echo the words of Elders Monsees and Pittman, in the preface to the 3rd edition, as we tried to include “the best old songs, and some of the new good ones...” In recent years, the Holy Spirit has blessed the creation of new hymns, born from the souls of redeemed children of God, moved and affected by the influence of grace. In honoring the spirit of past editions, and striving to obey the unction of the Holy Spirit, we are united in the desire to share some new songs. Having begun in the fall of 2019, and concluded in the midst of uncertain times, we believe a Providential blessing is in the timing of this effort. As unprecedented upheaval and abject fear prevails, we are compelled to present a point of light to push back against the darkness. While angry, dispirited voices reach a fever pitch, as the vitriolic squawk of malicious accusations command our attention, amidst the din of hard speeches and great swelling words, our prayer is that a different sound rises above the fray. In Christian homes, among congregations of Spirit-led worship, and from hearts of weary sinners, may songs of praise and voices of worship rise to adorn and adore the worthy name of Jesus. Accepting full responsibility for omissions, oversights and mistakes, and pleading for the mercy and blessing of God, we give to you this Centennial Edition, trusting the voice of praise will lift up to glorify our resurrected, reigning and returning Savior.

Download or read book To Sing Is to Obey written by Tudy Brumley and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord" (Col. 3:16). A commandment from the Lord as part of the worship service. Growing up in rural Missouri we walked exactly one mile to church in the summer as children, the singing a major draw for me. I love music, all kinds of music, but I cannot carry a tune. The only place I even felt comfortable singing is in church during the congregational portion of worship when my out-of-tune voice does not matter; the Lord does not care how you sound just so you are obeying his command. As I grew older and visited other churches, I was amazed to discover how many denominations used the same songs of worship unto the Lord. Hymns of praise written and composed by persons gifted with the ability to furnish those songs of praise to obey the Lord's command. I married into such a family. My husband's father wrote hundreds of hymns and gospel songs during his lifetime, and his words and music live yet today. The most famous being "I'll Fly Away" written in 1932. The music does not die out over the decades. We sing the same hymns of praise our ancestors did centuries ago. "Amazing Grace" is only one example written in the 1700's and that fact awoke my interest. When my research was finished, I knew I had to share my findings. What the Lord commands, He provides.
