Download or read book Come Home The Father Sings a Lullaby written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by XinXii. This book was released on 2023-03-05 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God calls us all ‘home’, meaning to find our rest, peace, joy and love in Him. No matter what we have done or what has been done to us, we can always return to God like the prodigal son. It is never too late. God is full of compassion, mercy and grace. His love calls us home for He wants to make a home within us. For those in whom God makes a home, they shall experience His love, joy, peace, strength and contentment. One understands that for some it is not easy to “buy into the idea” that God is good, a loving Father, and His home is beautiful, and without suffering. Yet, the truth will not alter or change because God is good, He is kind, He is love and He wants all of us to experience His grace. We have all been created by God.

Download or read book Poems of American History written by Various and published by HOUGHTON MIFFLIN COMPANY. This book was released on 2015-01-26 with total page 1279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Example in this ebook The poetry relating to American history falls naturally into two classes: that written, so to speak, from the inside, on the spot, and that written from the outside, long afterwards. Of the first class, "The Star-Spangled Banner" is the most famous example, as well as perhaps the best. Even at this distant day, reading it with a knowledge of the circumstances which produced it, it has a power of touching the heart and gripping the imagination which goes far toward proving the genuineness of its art. Of the second class, "Paul Revere's Ride" is probably the most widely known, though Mr. Longfellow's own "Ballad of the French Fleet" is a better poem. It is evident that, in compiling an anthology such as this, different standards must be used in judging these two classes. The first, aside from any quality as poetry which it may have, is of value because of its historical or political interest, because it is an expression and an interpretation of the hour which gave it birth. With it, poetic merit is not the first consideration, which is, perhaps, as well. Yet, however slight their merit as poetry may be, many of the early ballads possess an admirable energy, directness, and aptness of phrase, and there is about them a childlike simplicity impossible of reproduction in this sophisticated age—as where Stephen Tilden, in his epitaph on Braddock, requests the great commanders who have preceded that unfortunate soldier to the grave to "Edge close and give him room." With the retrospective ballad, on the other hand, poetic merit is a sine qua non. It has little value historically, however accurate its facts. It differs from the contemporary ballad in the same way that the "New Canterbury Tales" differ from Froissart; or as the "Idylls of the King" differ from "Le Morte Arthur." It is less authentic, less convincing, less vital. It may have atmosphere, but there is no infallible way of telling whether the atmosphere is right. Unless it is something more, then, than mere metrical history, the modern ballad has little claim to consideration. These are the two principles which the present compiler has had constantly in mind. Yet the second principle has been violated more than once, since, in a collection such as this, one must cut one's coat according to the cloth; or, rather, one must make sure that one is decently covered, though the covering may here and there be somewhat inferior in quality. So it has been necessary, in order to keep the thread of history unbroken, to admit some strands anything but silken; and if the choice has sometimes been of ills, rather than of goods, the compiler can only hope that he chose wisely. The most difficult and trying portion of his task has been, not to get his material together, but to compress it into reasonable limits. Especially in the colonial period was the temptation great to include more early American verse. Peter Folger's "A Looking-Glass for the Times," Benjamin Tompson's "New England's Crisis," Michael Wigglesworth's "God's Controversy with New England," the "Sot-Weed Factor," and many others, which it is recalling an old sorrow to name here, were excluded only after long and bitter debate. No doubt other exclusions will be noticed by nearly every reader of the volume—and it may interest him to know that the material gathered together would have made four such books as this.

Download or read book Revival and Awakenings Volume One written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2024-07-10 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volumes one and two of Revival and Awakenings (part of the End-Time Series) explore what is a real revival and a spiritual awakening. Prophetically, it delves into what God has been saying for a long time, which is that the Lord will sweep the earth with revival in the end times which will ignite many followers with His holy fire. What will this revival look like? This is the big question, and one would rather say it will not be a singular event, but a sequence of Godly movements across the globe that will be infectious, contagious and real. In an awakening, the Holy Spirit gives unbelieving people - who are dead in their trespasses and sins -a new awareness of their needs. A revival is connected to the people of God and it is when those who are in churches - those who are professing believers - are ministered to by the Holy Spirit in such a way that they are renewed in their devotion to the Lord. The time is ripe for the one final great harvest, yet this calls for the revived church, full of the fire of the Holy Spirit, to go into the fields, to awaken the lost and the forgotten and broken, and to bring them into the loving embrace of a God who is full of compassion, grace and mercy. This is the time of spiritual latter rains, and now is the time to welcome the embrace of a God who is real, alive, and who calls us all into His arms to reflect His beauty and greatness. It is not God’s Will that any soul should perish, but that all men should come to the knowledge of God and be saved. God is calling on all believers to cast their net in the deep for the harvest of souls.

Download or read book Remembering Musical Childhoods in Vietnam written by Tina A. Huynh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an in-depth exploration of the childhood musical experiences of Vietnamese elders, providing a unique lens on the intersections between identity, culture, and music education. Centering the stories of five Vietnamese Americans and one Vietnamese person who grew up in Vietnam between 1931 and 1975, the author considers the role that each individual’s childhood musical experiences played in their life as they were impacted by war, political movements, and immigrant and refugee experiences. The book adds a new perspective to research on the global music practices of children by exploring music transmission and repertoire in Vietnam in the context of political unrest and colonialism before and during the Vietnam War. It also explores the evolution of the personal meanings and memories of music over a period of drastic change in each individual’s life, as five of six elders transitioned into a life in the United States. This book provides both an act of cultural and musical preservation, and relevant implications for music education today. Situating the children’s songs and games of Vietnamese culture in their original context, the author invites those in the field of music education to consider how lived experiences and entrenched systems of teaching affect music learning and identity formation. The volume includes a selection of Vietnamese children’s songs, games, chants, and musicopoetic lullabies (ca dao), offering ways to enrich music educators’ world music curricula. Relevant to music education, ethnomusicology, and Asian American studies, this book provides a nuanced account of Vietnamese children’s music making of the past and presents an analysis of childhood musical experiences in a wider cultural, sociopolitical, and historical context.
Download or read book Radical Relentless and Tough written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we look at the life of Moses, we find numerous spiritual lessons that will benefit any disciple of Jesus. Is his life important? Most assuredly, as this volume of work explores. He was a murderer, yet God used him mightily. He was almost killed as an infant, yet survived to do great things for God, leading a life of worth and value for 120 years. He survived the harshness of two wilderness journeys, totalling 80 years, and rightly takes his place, even though human, as one of the great heroes of the Bible. Moses as a prophet played a vital role in pointing towards the life and the ministry of Jesus. Moses is of great importance in the Bible for he is recognised as a deliverer (Exodus 3:7–10), covenant mediator (Exodus 34:27), priest (Psalm 99:6), and ruler (Exodus 2:13–14; Acts 7:27). Moses's larger-than-life status as prophet was designed by God as a template from which all other prophets would be measured. Enjoy this journey as covered in volumes one and two to know more about Moses, and how we can spiritually grow on our journey with God.

Download or read book The Bride Bridegroom written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord is our Bridegroom, and those who belong to Jesus Christ are His Bride. Those who believe have been included in Christ when they heard the message of truth, the gospel of our salvation. The moment we hear the message of the gospel and receive salvation we are betrothed to Christ. Such a Bride is sold out for the Bridegroom, seeking to be with Him and to love him for all eternity. This church—the Bride of Christ—is not one specific local church or denomination but the entire body of believers throughout the ages. All who have trusted the Lord and received salvation by grace through faith are collectively His Bride. As the Bride, we are called to have only one true eternal love – Christ. The Lord Jesus is our Bridegroom, the Lover of my soul. It means that we share His love. It means we bear His Name. We are called to uphold the name of Jesus. Through our actions, words, behaviour and conduct, we must bring honour to the name of our Bridegroom! We are His Bride, and as such, we must bring honour to our Bridegroom. We must not put Him to shame. What He loves we must love. He must be ours and captivate our attention day and night. In any true marriage, the bridegroom and the bride give themselves to each other, unreservedly and forever; and in this holy relationship of the saved sinner and the Saviour, it is the same. We are called to shine the light of the Bridegroom, to be ready for His coming, and to be without spot or wrinkle when it happens. We must make every effort to be found pleasing unto the Bridegroom, for the marriage feast in heaven will outshine any grand wedding that has ever been held on earth! The Bridegroom is indeed glorious, so let us prepare and remain consecrated unto holiness. May the Bridegroom find a pure and faithful Bride at His blessed coming!
Download or read book HELP I ve Fallen into Old Age and I Can t Get Up written by Myra Smith and published by Miraclaire Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-26 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myra Smith’s book about aging will tickle the funny bone of all readers, but particularly members of the Baby Boomer generation. From falls, weight loss plans, memory loss, tech issues and goofy vacation scenarios, to scary doctor visits, surgeries, and hobbies gone bad, Myra has done it all. Her husband tolerates the trail of card stickers and loss of personal fortune from her card “business”; her grown children maintain their dignity when she asks stupid questions such as, “What day of the week does Thanksgiving fall on?” and “Where is the Alamo Dome?” They save their hysteria about the fact that their mother doesn’t know she has a garage door opener, and thinks ‘cut and paste’ is only for elementary students. Her grandkids endure her ignorance about technology and her dim knowledge of fairies, Disney characters, Lego construction, magna tiles and superheroes. They graciously instruct her on as many of these topics as her small memory allows. Her friends accompany her on shopping trips, and listen to her horror stories about doctor visits and surgery. When she refers to their grandchildren by saying, “Oh she is adorable, and “He is getting so big!”, they share a knowing smile. They don’t laugh when she sports a new blouse with the XL label in full view, or shows up with lipstick smeared on her face. Myra’s book is a tell-all about getting older, but not wiser. It’s a funny romp through time that is flying by at record speed. The bad news is that sooner or later, we will all fall into old age. The good news is that we can laugh at ourselves in the process.
