Jeremiah 29:13-14a

Job 33:27b-28

"Hear me now" I heard Him say
That fateful awesome doubt filled day
His face ablaze and voice thundered
In dreadful fear my soul shuddered

And reaching for the Book nearby
With trembling hands I wondered why
What answer would I find within
What price for a life of sin

Aged, worn, and bound in black
The Bible opened near the back
Alarmed my fearful eye did fall
Upon judgment of one and all

Every seed that had been sown
Every soul that I had known
Called to account for fault and strife
Absent from the book of life

The pit of Hell belched and groaned
Devouring all that I had known
Wracked with fear and paralyzed
I cried "Oh God" and shut my eyes

Then in darkness I felt peace
A silent spirit reached to me

But I said, no, I can't believe
Perhaps my mind plays tricks, deceives
I would be crazy to believe
That God has spoken to me

But the Spirit did not leave
As dreams of dragons filled my sleep
Visions of horsemen and angels
No longer seemed so fateful

The flesh is certainly weak
But there's a promise for the meek
Written in that good Book
So I took another look...

What'cha think

Something to consider: You could easily add a basic drum beat to your guitar recording, for free. Get a lightweight mixer program, a soundfont player and a drum soundfont.

Yeah, all those are free. Like, legit freeware.

Lol... I thought you knew me better than that

I like the green apples when I was a child. They are sweet and sour. Now the apples have been improved to death by scientists.

It seems that only the original products created by God are the best.

Eh... not quite. You wouldn't believe what the original citrus fruit was like. I'm glad they tinkered orange, grapefruit and lemon out of them.

This can only show that the Gentiles were grafting on the branches of the Israelites.

For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?



For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

O+live

Olive <------Look at this hieroglyphics. A man is kneeling.

I'm thinking that I need to go fishing...I haven't been in forever...like at least a year. There's something very wrong with that.

Not sure what you mean. No interest in drum tracks? Already got a full music making suite installed?

Yes, those were not the words He spoke to me, and yet His voice
did thunder, and there was certainly no not hearing what He said.
As frightening and confusing as it was in the moment, I most
certainly now do take comfort in knowing I knew Who was
speaking, even as much as I wanted to deny it.

I felt no peace! LOL I was in more turmoil than I think I've ever known, before or since.

But I said, no, I can't believe
Perhaps my mind plays tricks, deceives

That God has spoken to me

Yeah, so true LOL

I wasn't sleeping. I couldn't sleep. What happened that night, was the
single most terrifying thing I have ever experienced in my life. I rarely
speak of it because I don't think most people would understand. Heck,
I'm not even sure I understand. It is possible it was my spiritual
circumcision. It certainly was not performed by human hands.
But I felt it. Nobody, and I mean nobody, could explain to me what
had happened. I consulted a lot of people, the so-called spiritual
teachers, healers, and practitioners I was consorting with. None
of them knew. Their offerings, telling me God did not exist and
stories of Jesus were just stories, I could no longer accept as true.

The flesh is certainly weak

Well done

Everyone has their own taste. If you like green apples, than stick to the green.

I like Honey Crisp, Jazz Apples, and just recently tried Sugar Bee Apples, which are.....

You just started playing and recording music like last year right?!?! lol

That's pretty much everyone's story, no?!?! Maybe not, I don't know.

Was there someone specifically that talked about Jesus with you, or it was sort of on going thing, that finally blossomed?

So now I've gone to Walmart and gotten a new fishing license and trout stamp....and I decided to get a new $30 reel...
I'm not sure if I'll like it. I've used my Shakespeare Mitchell's for my whole life. Never been a push button or trigger type of guy. Never got the hang of baitcasters. Open face or nothing.

But nowadays braided line is the thing...with a fluorocarbon leader. So I had to get some more line too. And since the kids beat up all my lures I got a new one of them too. None of my old stuff is really made for braided line. *Sigh*

And now it's time for some comfort food.

Cumberland pies.
