Great I Am - New Life Worship

Image Detail
Last Sunday, our worship team introduced a new song, Great I Am. I loved it so much I continued playing it all afternoon!! (So of course, I had to share it with all of you! ;-)

Lately, God has been using songs full of bold, powerful statements to speak to my heart. Last week's feature, Courageous, calls men (and women) to rise up and live a life of boldness and courage as we take our families, morals and values back! Great I Am reminds me of the AWESOME power and majesty that is the God we serve. My favorite line is,
The mountains shake before you, the demons run and flee,
at the mention of your name, King of Majesty;
There is no pow'r in hell or any who can stand
before the power and the Presence of the
Great I AM
Can I get an AMEN!!!! I could listen to just that part of the song over and over and over! So as you listen, I pray that this song speaks to you, stirs your heart and calls you draw even nearer to HIM today!

Courageous - Casting Crowns


Thanks to everyone who commented and shared their current favorite song! I love listening to each of your songs (even if I already know them ☺). Family and marriage has been heavy on many hearts recently, including my own. Last week's feature, Lead Me, spoke to the desire by us as wives and children to be lead by our husbands. This week's feature comes from Kim. Courageous by Casting Crowns is a cry for men to step up as the warriors of our families. Although it doesn't specifically speak to women, I believe we are called to (1) pray and (2) "seek justice, love mercy and walk humbly with you God."

"The only way we'll ever stand, is on our knees with lifted hands!"

Don't forget... We want to hear from YOU!!! Leave a comment with a song that God's using in your life. Next week, YOU could be our featured song!!

Lead Me - Sanctus Real

It's makes my heart smile as I read your comments and see how God is using the gift of music to bless and encourage your souls!! This week's featured song comes from Esther at  Laugh With Us Blog.  This is what it means to her, in her own words...
I love “Lead Me” by Sanctus Real. I am so thankful to be able to be home raising my kids. I wouldn’t trade it to chase any other dream. It is, however, difficult at times to be home and feel sort of left behind or forgotten as I watch my husband pursue his dreams.
 For me, this song speaks to the deep desire of a family who longs to have their husband and daddy be the leader, spiritually, physically and emotionally, that God has called him to be. May it be a blessing to you as you listen.

Dirty Dishes

This week's song comes from one of our readers. Fawn, from The Happy Wives Club, shared her favorite song, Dirty Dishes by Scotty McCreey. Although we are avid country music fans, I hadn't heard this song, but on listen and I was hooked! As a mom, it's a great reminder of what is really important. Enjoy!!

"One Heartbeat at a Time"

Choosing the first song of 2012 for Musical Blessings was a little bit of a challenge. There are so many great songs out there, several of which have been speaking to my heart lately. But those of you who have been following BBM for any length of time know how excited I've been about The Gentleness Challenge! (Hopefully you're not too sick of hearing about it yet...lol). I heard this at church during child dedication and was a tear-stained mess by the end. A great reminder of the awesome responsibilty it is to be a mom and that what we do, no matter how small it seems, matter! Warning: Get the tissues handy!
