Just glad I could have a pleasant ride to work this morning. Instead of listening to the radio, I put in some cassette tapes(remember those?) of some inspirational music. I got some good music from Goodwill. I need a new tape case. I'm somewhat diverse in my current musical tastes. Some days I will be listening to Rod Stewart or Billy Joel, others it may be the Oak Ridge Boys and Statler Brothers. Past couple of days it has been Gaither Homecoming, Promise Keepers, Mast Brothers and Down East Boys. You can't beat those deals. I pay no more than 50 cents per tape. Most of the time this helps me on my ride home.
Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request. 1 Chronicles 4:10 NIV The verse above is commonly referred to as the Prayer of Jabez. I was impressed to find my copy of the book written by Bruce Wilkinson and read it again. Some recent happenings prompted me to reflect upon how my territories have been expanded. The Lord has been blessing me and I have really not deserved these blessings. The past several years, I have been sharing my poetry with my friends on Facebook. I also share the poems with others by writing them on index cards. These are usually received with smiles and people telling me that I should write a book. For years, I have been under the belief that poets and composers achieve the greatest fame after they start decomposing. The last year or so, I have shared my poems with some best selling author...
